Dollie and Pita

Let me introduce you to Dollie and Pita. The cute pets I met in Washington.

Pita is the softest cat I have ever felt.

I Could Spend Hours at the Zoo...

This trip to the zoo revealed the presence of ducklings!

(If you're my friend on Facebook, I have posted a video of the ducklings being fed. It's the cutest thing!)

Another amazing Eagle shot.

In my opinion, it's not as amazing as this picture, from this post.

What You've Missed

Tom did that thing where he becomes another year older or something like that...



That was on July 9th, so I should have been more prompt about that post, but whatever.

Updates

Here's a fast Duchess update:

As you can see, she's still sleeping as strangely as ever.

Here's a quick video I made for fun, because I'm going to Washington this month!

Color me excited.

Through Child's Eyes

This Monday, we had a family party.

This adorable little Step-second-cousin of mine, Hannah, took my camera.

This is the first time I've met her, so it was kind of odd when she and her brother came over to play with me.

Here are some of the pictures she took:

Her shirt

My purse

Her pants, which have hearts on the knees.

It was really fun. When they went home, other cousins of mine came over and we played hide and seek. When I went to the party, I didn't expect to end up as the baby sitter... it was entertaining, regardless.

Fireworks

The night of the 4th, we roasted S'mores in the backyard, followed by fireworks in the driveway. I had to work the night of the city fireworks show, so I missed photographing those.

There was a flash-bomb type firework.

Instead of photographing the flash-bomb, I photographed Tom, who was moving around at the time.

Pretty cool, huh?

Once I showed him, he started moving around intentionally.

Happy Independence Day!

The Duchess Video

I finally converted those kitten clips to the correct format! So, here is a video full of kitteny cuteness, to celebrate having Duchess for 2 years.

"Duchess is too hot for TV, though!"

3 little doggies

Sophie

Lexi

Snuffles

I forgot how fast little dogs move around! It's so hard to get a clear picture them.

Special Duchess Post

We've had Duchess for 2 years now!

Kitty sandwich!

These last two are the most recent pictures of her taken on June 30th.

This post is lame in comparison to what I was going to do. On July 1st, I was going to make a video compiling clips of Duchess throughout the years. All the kitten videos were filmed on my old camera, the Kodak, which took video in Quicktime format. I don't have a video editor that can edit Quicktime... So, alas, I have no video for you. Just imagine that I posted a video of cute kitteny goodness.
