Kids and Kittens

Here are the kids and the kittens this morning before school in our bed. Bella is with Isabelle and always likes to snuggle up near you to go to sleep. Coco on the other hand usually lies down near your feet and goes to sleep, never near faces, unless she wants cuddle times, and then rubs her whole body against your head. Bella would sleep on the bed all day if I let her. She eats so much food that her little body bulges after she makes a piggy of herself. Coco usually just has a small bite to eat and then comes back later to finish it off, unless of course Bella has gobbled up her bowl full as well. Coco has now turned a beautiful black color, as all her kitten fur has come off, and the chocolate brown color has now all disappeared. They have now quietened down as I cant hear them wrestling each other. Bella has been sneaky lately. She likes to steal things out of Isabelle's room when we arent watching her. The other day Isabelle and I could hear this noise, and we turned around and here is Bella dragging a paint brush away down the hallway. I think she liked the bristles, but did not get to chew on it as Isabelle rushed over and took it back. Then a few moments ago, I just heard Bella dragging something else down the hallway, which turns out to be Isabelle's purple fluffy bird pen. She seems to like to find treasures to hide and chew on. I think from now on Isabelle will have to hide those things in her wardrobe so Bella cant jump up and take them.

Now since I have waffled on about the kittens for those of you who were interested, I do have knitting content, but no FO's just yet. Spotlight had cute little buttons and knitting needles for children too. The cat buttons I could not resist as they look so cute. I am sure that I will find a good use for them later on. The knitting needles were only $3 a pair. The rabbit ones are 4.5mm and the teddies are 5mm. They had different animals for different sizes. I loved the giraffe ones too, but they were a bit thick for Isabelle to handle. I will show you a photo of Isabelle's knitting one day. I promised her that when she had done a fair bit of progress on her scarf I would show you all. She really is good when she gets into the rhythmn of it too. Tomorrow I should have the stripey baby jumper finished, just one sleeve left to knit up and then seam it all together. Hopefully then I will finish the other green sock which has been waiting in the UFO basket, but at least it wont get too lonely in there with the other projects!
