Flashback Friday!

This was July of 2008. I miss his little munchkin voice!!

Introducing....

Baby Butterfly Four Racecar Rocketship Butterfield!! Arriving August 2010!!!

Loving the warm weather!!

My tubba babies!

My husband.... "the kitty whisperer?"

We always joke that Jay is the "kitty whisperer." Everywhere we go, they flock to him. People are constantly telling him, "that's so strange, our cat usually hates everybody!" while he/she is curled up on Jay's lap purring like crazy or rolling over for him to scratch their tummy. (Okay, maybe that's just Lola....!) In bed at night, the usual positioning is Lola wrapped around Jay's head on his pillow, Jerry on his chest or under the covers next to him, and Snuggles on his legs. Doesn't leave much room for me, let me tell you!! LOL

Its especially true when we're at home, he is never without at least one cat on him (Jerry rides around on his shoulders), while the other two prefer to curl up on his lap or legs or whatever is available. Last night, he had both Jerry and Lola and proceeded to "teach them to love each other." Needless to say, neither was very thrilled about it, but it did make for some fun pictures.

And for those of you who haven't seen them in awhile, look how FAT Lola has gotten?!! She was my itty-bitty baby kitty who we never thought would get over 6 pounds- she used to ride around in the pouch on Jay's sweatshirts! Now, she's at least a 12 pounder and quite pudgy!!

Photo Shoot

I decided to try and take some pictures today of the kids since they were all dressed up nice for a social at Jay's squadron.

Needless to say, Harry was not thrilled at the idea!! LOL

But he warmed up, and was adorable. I think he looks a LOT like my dad lately, but Harry says he doesn't because he doesn't have a beard, and his Ga-ga does. I tried to explain it to him, but he's adamant that it just doesn't work like that.

Keesas!

my pretty little Memma :)

She says, "I wud my brudder."

Also, a conversation with her today:

E: Big girls listen.

Me: Yes, they do.

E. Big girls listen to their moms and big girls listen to their dads.

Me: Yup, that's exactly right.

E: That's why I'm LITTLE!!!

Flashback Friday!

Talk about a flashback! This was posted on my high school's alumni page this morning, and I thought I would share.

This was our 1997 7th grade "Quiz Bowl" team. I'm the bottom right (with the mouthful of braces!! Thank God I'd gotten contacts shortly before this!)
