The begining!

I have never done this "blogging" thing before. So, please bear with me as I figure this thing out! Welcome to my family and our little "farm." All that we have for animals right now are 4 cats: Swiper (age 5 years)

Capone (age 1 year),

Quincy (age 1 year)
and my pride and joy, Laertes a.k.a Larry (age 1 year)

Larry is was my 30th birthday present from Jason last year. Larry is a Norwegian Forest cat and she came all the way from Oklahoma. Yes, I said "she." We originally thought that she was a "he." But when she went into heat at 6 months, we realized she was a girl. :) She is my third child. This morning, as usual, she was following me around the house meowing and anytime that I would sit down she was right in my lap. Which, at 18 pounds, she is a lap full!!! She is just wonderful!

We also have 2 dogs: Bailey is our 11 year old Keeshond and the newest addition to the family is Louie. He is 12 weeks old now. He is mix of long-haired Chihuahua and Pomeranian.

That is all for animals now, unless you count the 6 daycare kids that I care for and my own 2 children, Rylee and Chandler. Yes, it is a houseful of children and animals all the time.

I am so blessed to have 2 wonderful children. My daughter, Rylee, is almost 8 and in the second grade. She goes to the Christian School at our church, New Life Community Church in New Vineyard.

My son, Chandler, is almost 5 and we are preparing him for Kindergarten in the fall. I can't believe that both of my children will be in school! Scary! It makes my husband and me feel old! :)

This is all the time I have for this morning! Time for housework!
