Spring is Springing

Mom let us escape again to the back yard.  It was nice out there until a certain male member of the family started chasing me and biting me and pulled out some hair.  Boy was Mom mad.  I went back in the house and stayed and told Mom to shut the back door and not let Sam in the house.

And she did too.

Her friend came by and they were trying to build something to help give some more shade in the backyard.  They couldn't finish 'cause Mom forgot to chop down one of the trees.   She says the neighbors trees are growing so much that it doesn't get sun anymore so it's ok to chop it down.  She's going to grandmom's house today to get her favorite tool.  The chain saw.   I stay inside when she plays with that toy.  And so does Sam. 

Mom says I'll like the new thing a whole bunch.... well, I'm sure I would if that Sam would behave!

See you soon,

Millie, the Queen of this house  (lol Mom says they call her the Queen of the Universe at work).  We're good....very good!

Sam.... Trouble..... AGAIN

Mom let us escape to the back yard last week and Sam remembered he could poop outside and not have to go back inside.  Personally, I prefer the litter box - it's so much more civilized.

So Mom let us escape again this morning so she could do a little cleanup (she can't do much cause she has a funny ouch on her face - she says her name is FrankenMom for now? - she stayed home with us for a few days too!).  

Oh, back to the story, Sam didn't tell her he could open the gate and he didn't ask permission to escape from the backyard and hid under the truck.  Then he ran all the way to the front yard twice.  The 2nd time Mom says the dogs next door scared him but Sam's version is that HE scared the dogs....sure he did LOL.  

It was sprinkling so he was safe under the truck.  He finally came back in cause Mom was about to call her brother to come help. 

Thanks to Sam, we may n.e.v.e.r get to escape out to the backyard again.

Mille, the wonderful furbaby that minds Mom all the time.

Texas Independence Day!

Mom says it is Texas Independence Holiday today.  

March 2

Sam and I are Native Texans just like our mom!

We have to go celebrate now - we smell treats!

Millie

(...the good one)

Springtime is lost?

Uncle Craig is helping Jackson play the iPad piano

Mom says spring is hiding and just might be lost.  We think having Jackson here is making her downright silly.  All she does is talk about Jackson.   and how cute Jackson is, and what a good baby he is, and how Jackson is cute even when he is cranky. 

Grandma! You aren't moving me fast enough!

oh my.  I think maybe she's drinking soda again.  No more sugar for her.

Jackson has 2 Grandpa Alan's.  This is Mom's brother. He feeds us sometimes when she is gone or sick.

Jackson goes home next Saturday so maybe she will remember we are here all the time and we are only kidding when we say she never feeds us... um  no Sam, I'm not telling them she never feeds us because she feeds us twice a day.  You just like to eat, sleep and poop.  Ha Ha Ha that makes you like Jackson!  Baby Jackson and Baby Sam.  

Millie

Pssst - he IS kinda cute.....

Mom is sick

Mom is sick.  She says we can't play on the computer so we are saying 'HELLO - HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY'.

She read us a funny story about a knee replacement.  We don't need knees.  We like our knees.  She said we will have a cat nanny come by for about 3 days this summer.  We are GROWN - we don't need no stinking nanny.

oh wait.  we need our food.  grumble grumble

talk more later 
Millie and Same

the VET

See?  I'm ready to go the vet tomorrow!  Millie just tells stories on me.

Oh yeah.  Right.  It's tomorrow Sam!  Mom will be chasing you all over the house in the morning. 

Note from Mom:  oops!  the iPhone camera lens must need to be cleaned..... 

Update:   Sam broke a zipper on his carrier and mom had to hold him to get him in the car.... and then the rascal escaped.  It was cold outside and mom spent 10 minutes trying to catch Sam.  Bad Sam.  Don't you agree?   Me? you ask about me?  I stayed in my carrier and behaved most of the time - well, I growled at the vet when I got my rabies shot.  

Happy New Year!

 Millie says "Happy New Year to everyone .... even Sam"

 Sam says " Hey, I'm trying to nap here...."

 Millie says " well,  time for my after breakfast nap"

Hey!   YOU gave it to ME!!!

and a Happy New Year from me too!

(just ignore what Queen Millie says about me)

Merry Christmas to All!

Merry Christmas from Millie

Peacefully watching Sam act silly as usual

Millie doesn't know what she's talking about.....

Merry Christmas says Sam

And Have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Mom can't write.....

Mom's daddy passed away so Sam and I are keeping her company.  She sleeps a lot and we take naps with her.   I purr a lot so she sleeps.

Her sister came over and they went through pictures.  They laughed and cried.  Her sister doesn't like us to get close to her so we just took care of our mom. 

Sam is behaving for now.

Her daddy was a veteran and was in WWII.  He has shrapnel in his back still.  Mom named the ugly gargoyle in the back yard after him - Jim Bob. 

Black Friday Triathilon

We three did the Black Friday Triathilon the day after Thanksgiving.

Mom didn't have to work so she said we could race all day.  We ate, napped and lounged all day long.  Mom said pj's were optional for us since she wanted to wear her jeans.

Sam and I tied for first place because we practice so much.  Mom even let us watch tv all day long!  Well, we napped through most of it but we could have watched.

Mom won't let Sam help her eat her In-n-Out lunch!

Mom came in last because she doesn't practice at all.  Well, she likes to eat though but she doesn't know how to nap all day or just lounge around and do nothing.  She said something about that reminded her of after her surgery a few years ago and she didn't want to be stuck in a chair for so long again.  Silly mom.



Oh well,
