10 Things We Love About Our New Kitty

First I want to tell you all the things we love about our new kitty and then I need your help.

1) We love to hold kitty. All 7 of us. All the time. Note to self – take pictures of the other family members holding kitty.

4) We love the way kitty reacts to the flash of the camera.

5) We love kitty’s cranky face, but not her cranky moods when the kids won’t stop loving her. This look means, “I want a nap.” Don’t you just love that expression?

This kitty was hand picked for us. God knew what we needed. I am reminded of the kitty that I had when I was very little. She didn’t look like this, but she was tolerant and full of love.

Okay, two more photos that I couldn’t resist. Look at Hosanna’s  face. She loves the kitty so much. She came in carrying the kitty and we couldn’t resist getting a picture.

Kitty is a wonderful addition to our homeschooling family.

We love her.

Now, if only I could get a chance to hold her…

Oh and while we are talking about kitty… she needs a name. Will you help give us some ideas? We need to tackle the task of naming her as soon as possible.

We have three names on the table, but we are open to other suggestions. (Please!)

  1. Holly (because it is Christmas time)
  2. Arm Pits and Bum (we have to keep reminding everyone how to hold her)
  3. Bizzy Bizzy Boo (a suggestion from the twins)

I am linking up to Top Ten Tuesday, Hip Homeschool Moms, and Tackle It Tuesday.

Gingerbread Cookies – from a kit

Every other Friday we have a visit from our Occupational Therapist (OT). She has been with us for a few years now and we love her to pieces. She works primarily with Elisha (he has autism, ADHD, and sensory issues), but sometimes she works with the family as a whole.

This week our activities focused around decorating gingerbread cookies, making foam gingerbread men (and women), and making foam stick puppets. There was the usual anxiety and stress (compliments of Elisha), due to change in our usual routine, but we pushed through.

Have a look at the finished projects.
