Kitten Teething Ring

Ezra - 12 Weeks and 5 Days Old- About 5.5 Pounds

Tiny kitten is in the process of chewing on every item in the house. Today, I found a little pineapple shaped kitty teething ring. I think he likes it!

Planes, Family and a Wedding

I flew out to Omaha to FINALLY meet my new niece... well, and to see my other two nieces AND to see my big brother marry Katie. I wholeheartedly approve of her by all means! I am so happy I get to spend time with them and share their special day! It was hard to boil down the photos to just a handful, but here goes...

I got to Omaha after midnight on Thursday so, really just time for hugs and kisses and go to bed. Woke up Friday morning to get to do some great bonding with my new sister Katie and my nieces. Well, Claire and Rory already had me wrapped around their finger, but I get to know Sloane. Man, she is a GUILL through and through! Headstrong, independent, smart and SASSY! 

Friday was rehearsal dinner and just hanging out since the wedding was Saturday! We had a lovely dinner at the The Spaghetti Works. Tons of food and really nice people.

And the wedding... What a day! Katie and Michael picked a super cute place for the wedding and reception. The Vintage Ballroom was the cutest little place with the best feel. A few hours early so get hair and make-up in place. It was absolutely the BEST time getting ready for their wedding and just getting to be silly with family. I missed that!

After some relaxing we decided to head out and get a family tattoo on Monday. G for Guill. Well, Claire went off book and got a surprise tattoo on her arm to honor Mike. The best is that he actually drew it and the word and love heart in the tattoo was his writing. This kid! Ended Monday with some sushi to celebrate Claire's 20th Birthday and teaching Slaone about Aunt Shell selfies, or as Claire calls them.. Aunt Shellfies!

Before I went home Tuesday night, we spend some time at the Omaha Zoo. That place is HUGE!! Cant wait to spend more time with them soon!

 

 

My Ginger Monster

Jinx - 8 Years and 4 Months Old

He's a big teddy bear when he wants to be. This big baby just loves to sleep on his mama's side of the bed and keep it super warm! He's a pretty special baby boy! 

He's a Heart Theif

Ezra - 11 Weeks Old

Window Sittin'

Baby Ezra questing Dexter Morgan about this idea of just sitting here looking out of the window. He's not feeling right about the level of non-violence. There's no face biting, no curtain climbing, nothing. Just sit here and watch the window. He's not impressed.

Bears Love Relaxing

The little bears are all starting to get along. Ezra is not at all having a difficult time getting comfortable.  He's all about chasing his brothers tails and following one or more of his brothers. Isabella doesn't want to play with him just yet, but she's at least in the room!

Just a boy and his Pineapple

Ezra

9 Weeks and 4 days old and about 4 Pounds

This boy!

Well, he's definitely making himself at home! Baby Ezra is having a difficult time "finding the litter box" so the sheer volume of laundry that I have done in the last 2 weeks is off the charts. He better be glad that I already love him! 

His favorite toys are, well, anything that is not nailed down... cat toys, pens, paper, socks, tv remote, other cats... He's very vocal and loves to be heard!

4th of July

Brothers

Oliver and Ezra are becoming the best of buddies. I love how they are always together. Ezzy just wants to be like his big brother! 

Best Big Brother Award...

This little guy, Lord Oliver, is definitely winning some big brother points with his littlest brother Ezra. These photos remind me of many years ago when our big guy Boomer gave the same attention to baby Jinx when he first arrived at the house. I love them!

Ezra - 8 Weeks and 1 Day old

Oliver - 3 Years and 9 Months old

Ezra's First Photo Shoot

 

It's a Boy!

Oops! We seemed to accidentally adopt a new baby! Meet Ezra! He's 8-12 weeks old. We're going to guesstimate his birthday at 4 May 2021.

Afternoon Selfie Time

Isabella

My beautiful House Panther decided she'd let me take a picture and actually look at the camera long enough for me to get a good shot. She's beautiful. She's the master of her own world. She's still my little girl! Mama loves you Queen Isabella Sophia!

Ava and Rocket

Rocket was a good sport letting Ava pet him while he hung out in the living room. This was a big step for him!! He normally runs and hides in the office when they are over!

Lil' Bike Ride

Took advantage of the nice sunny day and had Missy and Ava come over to work on riding her bike. Well, we got the helmet on and started to ride but she'd much rather pull the bike and ride it!

He's Mine

Let's talk about this little guy a minute. Dexter Morgan is the MOST loving cat in the whole world. He just wants to be with his Mama, sit on my desk or on my lap, so long as he's close to me. He's definitely my baby. 

Happy 6th Birthday Dexxy!

Guess who turned 6 today!? Yep, Dexter Morgan Wiggs! Of course, when your Mama names you after a fictional serial killer and LOVES horror movies A N D your sixth birthday falls on the 6th of June.. yeah... 6. 6. 6... a horror movie themed birthday photo shoot is in the making! Enjoy!

That Doesn't Look Fun!

 When you look up into the sky and see something that resembles the clouds in the movie Independence Day when the aliens were about to land.... It's a tiny bit scary!

It blew through pretty fast, brought a little bit of rain and then was gone,  but it definitely scared the heck out of the kittens!

Memorial Day Monday

What a wonderful end to a long Memorial Day Weekend! I had sushi lunch with Missy, Eli and Ava. Coffee with Irma and then a movie with Terry in an EMPTY theater!

Memorial Day in the Mud

Little did I know that when I started the day in my cute little top and shorts that in just a few short hours, I'd be up to my ankles in mud, soaked in rain but having the BEST TIME ever!

Ally hosted her annual Memorial Day barbecue and Olympics. I missed last year and there was NO way that I was gonna miss this one!

Tipsy Mermaid

It was my turn to host the monthly get-together and I crafted a signature drink, well, I may have not created it, but I did look for a drink on google that was heavy on the rum. 

I was not disappointed in the Tipsy Mermaid!

Random Claire Visits

 I love a random visit from my niece Claire. Three days is still better than none! Of course, my brother, Claire's dad texted and said to NOT give her any alcohol unless she asked nicely... so this is the text pic we sent him after that....

25th Anniversary Vacation

It's not everyday that you get to celebrate 25 years of being married! Deep breath! It was April 27th, but with work schedules and life in general, we decided to leave a little bit later so we could be at Disney World's Hollywood Studios on May the 4th to celebrate on Star Wars Days! I mean, being at Disney Hollywood Studios ON May the 4th? Pretty darn priceless.. well at least to two Star Wars Geeks!

We got on the road SUPER EARLY and Terry, shall we say was not a big fan of my car game.. "A Serial Killer Lives There and Here's Why." We made the first stop at South of the Border, South Carolina. We stopped here 25 years ago on the way to get married in Dillon, SC. Had to get a quick photo shoot in in the same place where I stood all those years ago!

Made it to Florida super late. Found an open late diner style place to get some dinner. Got a GOOD nights sleep and got to Disney before 9 am.  It's good to be early and were able to get right on a few of the Star Wars rides in Batuu!

Apparently, there is more to Disney World than Star Wars.. Saw some other parts of the park too!

Ended the night with a little lightsaber fun...

Headed to Epcot for Day 2. Again, got there super early and got in as much as we could. Loved! :)

Day 3 brought us back to Disney Hollywood Studios...
