As of Late

First of all, I have a new niece! Her name is Lilee and she's precious.

She looks so skeptical of me in this pic!!

 

She was born on May 13th, Mother's Day. <3

 I've been sick the whoooole last week, so I only got to play with her a little bit, but there is much more cuddling to come little Lilee!

My mom and sister came in town to see her too, everyone grab a kitten!

I walked in the other day and Mixey was just passed out on his mama:

I guess drinking milk can be pretty exhausting sometimes.

Speaking of kittens, I've been up since 6 AM because of these little buggers!

They have learned to crawl on my bed skirt and mattress, so I wake up to what sounds like ripping sheets. They aren't actually ripping the sheets but it sounds like it. AND they learned to climb onto the comforter, so I wake up with a kitten in my face, which you'd think would be cute, but at 6 AM I was closer than I ever thought I would be to tossing him across the room. (Kidding, but still...)

Only about a week and a half till we can give them away! Any takers? They are seriously precious.

 

I also did a little Sunday DIY, inspired by this blog via Pinterest. 

 

AND my version:

 

 

 

Seriously, it takes a long time. AND my rope was thicker than the bloggers so mine probably went faster than hers. About 1/5th of the way up I also learned the best way to do it so the glue doesn't show through, so I will probably be making more of these with different rope, and maybe try super glue so I don't have to wait so long for the hot glue to dry?

 

 It's definitely a cute DIY, but it took probably an hour start to finish. Worth it if you are just watching a movie or something...

AND it's Monday and it is my first day at work in like, a week (sinusitis/sore throat/chest congestion ALL WEEK)  so wish me luck getting back into it!
