We have been thinking a lot about getting Marcie a kitty but havn't had any luck until now. In Augest we found this cat at Petsmart and fell in love with him. Cody and I were not sure about getting a cat that day because we were just getting into the idea of having a pet. So we drove home without the cat. By the time we got home Cody said go get him. What???? So I dropped Marcie and Cody off at drove back into town and adopted this kitty.
Well we got him in Augest and not it is November and he has not run away! Let me tell you he has lost a couple of his lives already. I will tell you my bad day....I went to the eye doctor to have a checkup, I dropped Marcie off with Cody at a park 10 min. away because a doctor visit should be only 30ish min. long, right? Well I was there from 1:00pm-3:45ish!!!! The doctor dialated my eyes and then left me in a dark room for 45 min. he then paralized my eyes so I could not focus my eyes. The doctor says I have the abilty to change the shape of my lens to see 20/15 but my eyes strain very hard to see that perfect, but my true vision is not perfect. It is hard to explain. Anyways, Cody has an hour lunch and by now it has been a couple hours. I had to call Cody because he was stranded at the park without a carseat, and no diaper bag. Cody was a little upset due to the fact Marcie has a messy diaper and no diapers to change her and it is way past his lunch. Well the doctor said it would be ok to drive and go get Marcie, so that is what I did. I told him that I couldn't see, he still told me that it would be ok. Weird huh? My vision was soooo blurry that I could not see the speedomometer I could not see street signs, only big blurrs of cars, trees, houses. I was so scared I wanted to cry. Well when I found Cody I told him I would help change her diaper but he had to wipe because I could not see a thing. :( Now that I look at it it sounds kinda funny. So I had Cody put Marcie in the car and off I went back to the doctors office to finish my appointment. The thing is, is I had to drive home after all of this. The doctor told me I would be blind for 6 hours. I did find myself home but didn't realize I did not roll all my car windows up, duh cause I was blind. This is the part where my cat almost lost his life. The cat had jumped into the car window and used my leather seat as a scratching post!!! Ya, he did. There were holes and scrates on one area, I thought I was going to loose it! Now that this is all in the past (I guess) the cat is living outside in a heated cat house (spoiled). I guess I learned from this story that material things are just things, but this cat makes Marcie so happy it makes me so so so happy.

I took Marcie to Willow Part to play and see the animals. First she was eating her french fries and then trying to feed the ducks. Ya, well she kinda got bit by a duck, LOL. That french fry was just a little too close to the fence. It scared her and made her cry, it was sad but looking at it now it was kinda funny. Second, while she was playing a park she decide to walk infront of a swinging swing, nobody in the swing but it clocked her right in the forhead and knocked her right off of her feet onto her back. So there is a picture of her head below. She took it like a champ!

I told my neighbor that I saw a skunk in her yard that next morning at church and she was surprised, I told her that I took pictures of it and I would show her...but just informed her it was Marcie in her skunk suit. Hehe!

We have been working a lot in the yard this year. We had our sprinklers put in, did your rock beds/trees/shrubs, put a shed in, and planted grass and more trees. I am so glad to have the yard 98% done. Next year I will be working on the back yard with flowers and doing a garden. I don't have a green thumb. I planted tomatos and decided to spray the weeds that are close to the tomatos. Well can you guess what happened? Ya, my tomatos have huntch backs. We will have to see if they pull through or not. How sad is that? I guess I have learned for next year. :)

So Marcie loves cereal just like me. I love to eat Corn Pops, just not with milk. So in the mornings we sit in the tv room and eat Corn Pops right out of the box, yummy!:) She is so funny...She will dig her hand right to the bottom of the box and pull out a handful and then shove the other hand it and grab another handful. She will eat a few from one hand and then think she needs more and go right back to grabbing more from the bottom of the box. She has a new phase she is going through. Every time she wants something or wants more of something she saids, "More, More, More!" Imagine a sweet high pitch voice saying it. She is so funny to listen to when she says that. It kind of reminds me of the seaguls on the movie Finding Nemo when they say "Mine, Mine, Mine" It makes me laugh everytime.
