"Hard Freeze"

The local weather keeps talking about the hard freeze expected tonight which makes me very worried for the handful of "wild" outdoor cats I feed and I guess are ours by now. I have laid blankets and boxes out back for them and hopefully it will provide them enough warmth and shelter.

I think are indoor cats are thankful they are prisoners in our home tonight. Steve the cat looks very happy to be inside where it is warm:

I convinced Russ to take Sam out in the cold because it rarely gets this cold here and I thought it would be a great new experience for Sam (Although I was not willing to brave it out there!) The ever so dramatic local news keeps reminding us it has been five years since our last freeze. This is BIG news! Sam ran to the end of our street saying "BRR" all the way. You can tell he is a Florida boy:)

And lastly one more picture of our little man. He wakes up every morning ready to dance and laugh and enjoy every moment we share together. How lucky I am to be his mother and spend my days with him.

Happy New Year!

Tonight we are just staying home making fondue... how very 70's of us! A nice quiet night at home is just perfect and there is nowhere else I would rather be. I have my sparkling cider ready to go although I am not going to make it to midnight. As I was preparing some of our dinner I turned around and found Sam raiding the pantry. He pulled down the Cheez-its to have himself a little snack.



I hope everyone has a fun New Year's Eve and I am wishing everyone a great 2008.

Christmas

Someone is VERY excited!

Exhausted

We had a nice afternoon and dinner with my parents tonight but I am ready for bed. Having a toddler + being pregnant + standing on my feet too long cooking and cleaning = one exhausted momma! We usually head over to our friends' Christmas Eve party but I just couldn't find the energy to go this year. Oh well- maybe next year. Tomorrow we are having Christmas morning at home and heading to my parents in the afternoon. I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays with their families:)

So Sweet!

Here is a video taken yesterday of Sam. The video quality is poor (not sure why- poor lighting?)but enjoy through the haze!

Nice To Finally See You...

Cleaning Up After Every Meal!
