Snuggly little mongrel. We're still doing the bedtime dance.

I feel like your blog title is sort of reading my mind.  I did need kitten pics today (I'm in a rather crabby mood here, kitten pics may save a few coworkers)

I'm sitting here on my bed with my laptop, perusing Thor's newest pics, and I just felt a bit of fuzziness at my elbow. It's my black cat, Millie, peering around my shoulder at his pictures--there is no doubt she was actually looking.

I asked, "He's a cutie, huh?", and she whirred. It's a cross between a sigh and meow which she only does when she's in a happy mood. I think she may be crushing on him. She's a bit of a cougar.

@HarryPotterFan That's certainly possible! She has a dish sponge she carries around like a kitten--she's extremely protective of it. She has been spayed, along with her sister, and to my knowledge neither had given birth before we took them in. They were very young when they found us, and I think someone had just dumped them in our area. 

She's a terrible flirt, and makes sure she is sitting in our bedroom window every day around 5:00 when a neighborhood tom cat wanders through our yard on business. He mostly ignores her, but every so often they share a moment, and she will make her whirring noise.

Cats are such complicated little beings.

Our old man cat, Texi is always happier with a baby.  Before Princess and Thor there was Squeak, another tuxedo baby that I kept.  She was really sleek except for this big bushy squirrel tail and she had a round anime kitty face. That was his buddy, his baby, his beat'em up partner.  She died tragically one afternoon of some mysterious cause, he called for days, it was sad.  Then came Princess but she was never a baby with us, they act like an old married couple together.  He chases her, she growls and threatens to murder him then runs outside.  And now Thor.  That's his new baby.  They get along pretty well.  Princess had zero interest in becoming a mom in any way...Texi is ok with it.  They are, indeed, complicated beings. :kitty:

Here you go - a pic of my sister and brother-in-law's fur troublemakers Maggie and Marvel.

I miss both of them already.

Here is a better one of Marvin (I didn't realize the other one was so blurry until I saw it on a bigger screen).

      It's funny because as a mom of two young kids (6 & 3) I am very much a "time and place" person when it comes kids in public spaces. I think that 100% yes kids have a right to be in public places, and kids in restaurants and planes and places are just a part of life. BUT, I do think there is such a thing as using common sense and I feel like wayyyy too many parents these days feel entitled to bring their kids to places that while it's within their right to do so, it's probably not appropriate. 

      I do admit though that I am probably slightly biased on the subject because as a wedding & family photographer I see it alllll the time. I'm team no kids at weddings, which is always a hot topic. And for me it really boils down to the fact that weddings are formal events and *most* of the time the kids are a big disruption. And it's not that they're being bad, *they're just being kids*. Unfortunately too many parents just either a) don't pay attention or keep their kids in check, or b) are watching their kids and find nothing wrong with their behavior. 

      We are relatively strict parents when it comes to behavior, dare I say "old school". We take our kids out to restaurants A LOT, we fly with them regularly, etc. No kids are perfect, and no matter how strict you are every kid has their moments, tantrums, etc. IMO the difference is in how you handle it and doing so in a way that it doesn't disrupt other people. That might not be a popular opinion, but I absolutely feel that while it's my right to take my kids out to dinner, it's also the right of the other patrons to not listen to my kids yell and scream and be annoying.

      I really think it depends where you live as to what attitudes people have towards kids. I always felt really insecure about having my kids in public in Southern Ontario (where mega families were common) because people were unbelievably judgy about how they behaved and my parenting in general.
       

      Then we moved to downtown Montreal, where having more than 1 kid was considered a big family, and everyone is just so kind and supportive and encouraging. No one batted an eye at them. I swear that’s why we moved here.

      I feel like they're just regular old Fall family portraits...it's that time of year! All my clients are getting on the books for their Christmas card photos now too. At first I thought maybe an announcement based on the bear with pink ribbon, but I actually think it's more possible that is just to honor the loss they had. I can't imagine they'd give that much away prior to a big announcement. I could be wrong though.

      My bet is it's all for show so they're not changing anything.  After all, these people side hugged their own kids.

      Catch me up on the Bradrick family? Are they the ones that had a daughter in law wear a yellow wedding dress?

      Bradrick! and wife #1 Kelly were the darlings and the couple-of-the-year and marriage of the year  amonst the Vision Forum elite.

      Kelly and Bradrick! proceeded to quickly have six children before the perfect marriage imploded and Kelly sued for divorce, based on...nobody knows for sure.  I

      n the meantime,  Vision Forum had imploded because Doug Phillips was exposed as a sexual predator;  the Vision Forum gravy train left the station and left Bradrick! high and dry.  The young couple headed to the Pacific Northwest where Bradrick!'s family lives and Bradrick! became a realtor.  There's a classic photo of Kelly pregnant and maybe even barefoot, standing on the deck outside their mobile home on a damp day, surrounded by very young children. She looked so...over it. 

      Bradrick! stayed in the Pacific Northwest and Kelly and six kids flounced home to daddy Scottie Brown and then she married the current husband.
