Potty Training 101, Completed!!!!!

Hannah and I have completed our course in Potty Training.
Grades received Hannah = A- for a couple of accidents but a definite A+ in citizenship!
I on the other hand received a B+ for lack of enthusiasm and forgetting to remind her on the few accidents she did have!!

*Hooray to be done with the whole Potty Training thing. Now we just need to stay consistent!

Meet Emma Lassen



*Emma is obsessed with wicker thank goodness. She would rather sit in this chair or any basket we have then on the furniture!!!

Emma arrived in our family on April 10, 2009
She has blonde hair and blue eyes(she fits right in)!
She weighs about 4lbs give or take.
She is the sweetest thing ever.
Her favorite person in the family so far is Parker and not Hannah!
She is a flame point cat which we found out after we got her is really rare! Especially in females.
I never thought I would say it but I love this cat!! She is so tender and sweet and we all really like her. So welcome to the family Emma!

Our House is a very, very fine house With two cats in the yard Life used to be so hard Now everything is easy 'Cause of you And Our House

Every time I say to Pete "Our House" I sing those lines in my head(and out loud sometimes) for some reason! So for those of you who don't know Pete and I purchased our first "house" not a condo a "house"(that is a big step for us)! And we are so excited and terrified. Oh and in our case it is going to be "one cat in the yard" Yes I am getting a cat never thought I would see the day that I would be a cat owner but we have vacant fields behind us. It is very simple math vacant field = field mice which = Rachel getting a cat to hunt the field mice! Maybe cruel and sad to some but just the laws of nature to us!! It is a great house and a great responsibility, but I think we are up to the challenge. The house is in Pleasant Grove nestled up near the mountains and has great views! Once I have some pictures I will post some but for now I just wanted to let you all know our exciting news!!! I hope that wasn't to boastful I am just really excited! Bye Mom and Dad and your Basement Forever!!!
