is this thing on?

I've been terrible at posting lately, I know. Things have been a little bit crazy around here at the Kelly household.

As you can see, Bridget is getting perilously close to walking. Not only is she pushing around her walker, but lately she's taken to forgetting that she's holding onto something and just standing there on her own, until of course she realizes that she's not holding onto anything and she promptly plops down on the floor. She had a pretty nasty cold this week that has almost finished running its course. I can't complain, really. It wasn't too bad, and it's only the second time that she's been sick. You could probably even call it the first time because the other was more likely a reaction to booster shots. Breast feeding really must be doing its magic.

Bettis is currently recovering from surgery on both his hip and his knee (on the same leg). He's doing OK. Right now he's pretty well sedated on pain medication and sleeping in a Pamper's box. Of course that means that he's not really making it to the special litter box we have set up for him. Something tells me we're in for a long week. I'm not really sure how things are going to go with me working since his recovery suite is in the office. It'll all work out, I'm sure.

squeak

Early this morning, I heard the cats running upstairs, chasing something. It's not unusual -- they're cats. Maybe they found one of their many toys that are scattered around the house (most are under one couch) or maybe Bettis was getting on Ella's nerves so she decided she wasn't going to take it anymore.

But then I heard a squeaking noise. It definitely sounded alive. After a little convincing, I got Brendan up to take a look. They had chased a little mouse upstairs. Thanks guys for bringing it into our room. Couldn't they have been happy "playing" with it downstairs somewhere instead of next to my dresser?

Brendan cornered it in the bathroom, then scooped it up into a shoebox (still alive mind you) and took it outside. I think I saw it crawling on the outside of the basement window this morning.

I don't mind so much when they chase the wierd cricket bugs in our basement in the summer, but a mouse is a little different. At least Ella didn't bring it to us as a present. We're going to Texas in a few weeks to visit with Brendan's brother, so maybe we'll have some exterminators come in while were away.
