Happy Happy Birthday!

Since I know she sometimes stops by to check out life on Bekah's Bits, I'll wish my sister, Lori, a very happy birthday. I'll leave her age out - so she will continue to visit my blog. Lori and I get to share a birthday month, and though I never really learned to share very well (curse of being raised as an only child), it is kind of fun to share a birthday month with her.
Lori, you should eat lots of ice cream today. If I were there, we could go out for ice cream. That's zactly what I plan to do on my own birthday. :)
In other birthday news, most exciting to all you cat lovers out there.....
Today is also Miss Braeya's birthday. She turns the big zero one today. I actually remember this day last year when I got a message from my friend Kari...telling me there were little kitties being born at her house! That was the day I made the executive decision that Kaegan needed a brother or sister. I put in a request for pick of the litter. And I got her!
Never mind that she was mad at me this morning (Braeya, not Kari) because I would not let her get in the shower. She has this huge love of bathtubs and plays in the main bathroom all the time. Today she finally realized that the little bathroom has a shower...and that the shower is a lot like a tub. I would not let her in and she just sat outside the door and howled. I let her howl. As we head toward the terrible twos, I feel the need to establish who's the boss...

If you ever have kids, just so you know, cats are like two-year-olds. They know they shouldn't do something, but they'll look right at you and start doing it in front of you. But then later on, they'll figure you've forgotten all about that and come cuddle.

Skyepuppy - Cats are my training for kids. If all of us survive this, I'll know I have a fighting chance with real children. I think I need to hone the discipline skills more, though. Don't want to be a pushover Mom.

Nutz - Too bad you're not up here to celebrate with Miss Braeya! She would love that!

One of our cats is quite the manipulator. When she does something wrong, (like scratching on the couch right NEXT to the scratching post) and we yell at her, she does what we call "Stop, drop and roll" so that we have to forgive her and rub her belly. Got to love them!

Stop drop and roll - I LOVE it!! That is hilarious! I'll have to use that and give you credit.
