Home Is The Nicest Place There Is

Speaking of pillows, Keira finished the middle section of her stitched pillow last night.

That is her own design, and she wasn't following any patterns.

She usually works on it while I read to her at night.


Big Pillow, Little Pillow

Sophie is a pillow cat. 

Nothing can be too big or small for her.

Spring Training

So Coach Che invited Lennon over to his indoor facility to just "kick some balls", but I think he has missed coaching enough that within a few minutes he had already broken out the cones, poles, and ropes.

The boys are a bit sore today..

Pillow Pet

Sophie's favorite toy is a doll bed pillow that she found. 

She carries it around the house in her mouth while mewing and chirping, and then settles down under a chair to play with it.
