Let's Hear it For the Boys

OK, so it has been a while since I have posted anything, but this week over at I Heart Faces, it is "Let's Hear it for the Boys" week. I had to post this one. My son is all boy. We have little lizards at our house called skinks. They are very cute when they are outside the house. Inside is another story. My son loves to catch them. Usually they immediately drop their tail, but not always. This one is only missing the tip of its tail. On this day my son caught this little fellow and carried him around forever. Of course I had to take their picture together. I think they make a cute pair.

Pet's Week

The category at I Heart Faces this week is pets. My children went to spend a week at their Granny and Papa's house just a few weeks ago. The second day they told me of a litter of kittens that were, "sooo cute". (You must say that with a high pitch in your voice.LOL) The next day they told me the mama cat had moved all the kitten except this one. The next day was the same story. "Mama, can we please bring her home?" Not what I bargained for. No, was my answer. You see we have one big, fat lazy cat that sheds and really isn't a cuddly kind of cat. I didn't want another one. However, we couldn't just leave her there. The kids had to run for the car with her chasing them just to get away. She was hungry and scared. Mama cat didn't come back the next day, so we decided they could bring her home the next day. Granny got a bottle and some kitten formula. Who know they made such stuff. When I saw her for the first time, I was in love, as was my hubby. She was so tiny; only about 5 weeks. She is now about 8 weeks old and fully weaned. She is a playful sweet kitten. My daughter named her Faith. (Her sisters were Hope and Love). Today she went on a ride with us and was a bit thirsty on the way home. She started chewing on the straw in the Sonic cup in the trash. She knows where the good stuff is. LOL I couldn't resist posting this one.

I use Coffeeshop's Baby Powder Room action first. Then I got rid of his boo boos with the healing brush. Then I ran Coffeeshop's Barista action. That's it.

Smiles

The category this week at I Heart Faces, is Smiles. I had lots of smiles I could have used, but this one seemed too cute to pass up. This was taken at Easter. My son decided he wanted to look like his daddy, so we went and bought him a suit. Daddy supplied the sunglasses. They walked the halls of church looking just this way. Tyler was proud to look like his dad. You can tell by that little grin (smile) on his face. It was too hard to be serious. Momma loves those dimples. LOL
