Exploration

Happy Monday!  I let this little guy explore a bit which he seemed pretty happy to do.  I'm pretty happy that the weather has been staying warmer, the flowers are blooming, and the days are longer!  I love springtime!  😊

I really love how much natural light fills my home thanks to these big windows!  

Easter!

Happy Easter!  Doesn't Vilya look SO cute in those little bunny ears?!?!  He kinda froze after I put them on him which made it super easy to get pictures of him.  Hahaha!  I was initially nervous about putting jellybeans so close to him because I didn't want him to snatch one, but that wasn't an issue.  😊

Happy Monday

Happy Monday!  Vilya is helping me out this week by being super cute!  But seriously, this week is gonna be a bit crazy, so I'm actually gonna need to evict the hamster and get that mug filled with coffee.  😊

I am motivated by clean, fresh spaces to work in.  I have a bulletin board in my office that I hang prints of my wonderful pets as well as selfies of my husband and I.  It came to my attention that this board was desperately needing to updated (poor Kira wasn't on it yet and we've had her a year), so I changed out about 50% of the old pictures for new ones.  If you look behind Vilya, you can see one of the old pictures that I had to leave.  That's my favorite picture of Tarcil and Penny.  😊

Cat Hammock

I got this window cat hammock for our fat orange cat, Kira.  I wasn't sure it would hold her, or that she would use it, but it works, and she loves it!  I kicked her out so that Vilya could give it a try.  He seemed to like it.  :)

Purple Orchid and Other Plants

I really love orchids!  I have 3 right now.  This purple one and my white one are taking turns blooming every few months, so I get to see these lovely flowers year round.  My other one is a yellow one that is still trying to recover from the trauma our cat Kira inflicted on it by repeatedly knocking it over.  Thankfully, that's the only plant that was abused by her when we first got her about a year ago.  I've got her trained enough now that she knows I don't want her messing with my plants.  Obviously, because she's a cat, she still messes with my plants, but now she's more gentle about it and only does it to annoy me or get my attention.

I seriously can't get over how adorable Vilya looks!!  😍
