I have recently decided that we are superstars. I work full time as an ABA Consultant and am a full time student working toward my psych degree. I have the most amazing man in my life - Rob is every dream come true that I have had. He works hard, plays hard, and we are making our dreams come true one day at a time. We are the proud parents of 6 cats and 2 dogs. Ya. It is a circus but I love every minute of it!

Ok. I have been going to the gym every day early in the morning and today I packed my bag before I left instead of the night before like usual.... the result was two left flip flops....good thing I had my work out shoes to use instead!

Some how I scrapped both of my elbows.... I have NO idea how this happened, but it is right on the part of my elbow where I put weight when I lean on them.... not deadly, just irritating....

Photo A Day 4.26.2011 - Found A Stray.....


We found this beautiful pooch wandering around Terrytown when we were headed to the ferry to go across the river. Of course I can't just let him continue to wander. So we picked him up and called his owners.... they didn't answer so we took him home.


Rob and Jesse gave him a much needed bath with some flea and tick shampoo. Poor pup was completely covered with fleas and had at least 5 ticks. Very sad.



After his bath we took him and Cassie to the park to play. They played so good together!!! I really wanted to keep the dog due to the condition he was in, but since we had already called the owner we couldn't really pretend that we didn't know who's dog he was and when the owners called us back we had to return him. Rob and I still keep our eyes open for him and have decided that if he gets out again we will be keeping him.



Photo A Day 4.25.2011 - Rob's first Easter in a VERY long time!!

Rob and I celebrated our first Easter together this year. The only rule was that the baskets have to be useful and fun. No just going and buying a basket and filling it with stuff. I like this tradition because it really makes you think about something that the other person wants instead of just going on auto pilot to fill an Easter basket. OH. there was one other rule.... not plastic grass in the baskets because the kitties will eat it. So grass has to be paper and easily digestible. Here are the awesome baskets that we put together for each other and a friend, Jesse, who was staying with us. Rob did AMAZING!!!

OK ok ok.... I know I just posted about my kitties.... but they are significant members of my family, especially since we have no human children.... SO here are totally cute pics of four of the kitties (because O'Hanna is just too cranky) and the pup having fun with catnip!!


Daegan, Figaro, Athena and Missy rolling in the catnip

Sooooo HAPPY!!


and playful.....

See Cassidy in the back... she is JUST trying to lie down in the sun....

love love love.

Athena suddenly turned into a ninja!!! 

Powerful catnip!

Back to a kitten.... 

Poor Cassidy. All she wants is some sun....

Missy is so happy that Athena went to pick on Cassidy and left her alone

Such a good pooch. She just lets the kittens beat on her....

until they all finally decide to snuggle.
