It’s fun to see watch what E does with his hands. The other day Joey found him like this:

Too bad his thumb wasn’t out a little bit more.

The cats are slowly adjusting to having a baby around. I found Coco sitting on the boppy pillow. She seemed to like it there

Last Saturday, Grandma Day watched E while Joey and I went to dinner. She got some cute pictures of him awake.

Here he is in a summer outfit (that almost fits him):

I think he is putting on some weight – well at least I hope he is. At his two-week checkup he wasn’t quite up to his birth weight. We will stop in the doctor’s office next week to have his weight checked (Doctor’s orders).

Tomorrow we are having our first professional family pictures taken. I hope everything goes smoothly.

Joey put the crib together this week and the cats had a fun time “helping”. I helped hold pieces and I took some pictures along the way. We bought the crib from a friend for $50. Don’t worry, I did my research and there were no recalls for this model.

Here’s the crib in pieces:

Coco loves to climb on things and the crib was no exception.

Pumpkin even decided to join her in the climbing:

They also decided to jump in the crib and test it out. I think we are going to be in trouble when the baby needs to sleep in it.

Here it is all put together without any cats in it:

I am looking forward to getting the nursery all put together but we are quickly running out space. More pictures to come as we get more things.

Thursday night I was going to do something quick on the computer and I put a glass of water right next to my laptop.

I thought to myself “this is really not a good idea since Pumpkin and Coco like to walk all over the computer desk BUT I should be fine. I am only going to be a few minutes.”

Well, Coco decided to join me half way through what I was doing and tipped the glass of water over. Soon my laptop and the computer desk were dripping in water. I quickly picked up my computer and start shaking it. It should be fine, right?  After it was dried off, I tried a couple of the keys and it wasn’t working but luckily the mouse pad was working so I closed the window I had open, turned off the computer and called Joey. He told me to put the computer upside down on a towel and he’ll look at it when he gets home.

He got home a couple of hours later and started surgery on my laptop. He took a couple of the keys off as you can see here:

And more keys:

And after several minutes of working on the keyboard he tells me that it cannot be repaired so we decide to put the keys back. What are we going to do with a pile of keys anyway? As we started putting the keys back we weren’t exactly sure where they all went – do you have the top right hand side of your keyboard memorized? – luckily I had taken a picture pretty early on in the surgery process and I zoomed in and found where they all went. Whew.

Here is a picture of Coco walking right over what Joey was doing:

I should really train the cats to not walk all over the computer desk!

After Joey told me the keyboard on the laptop was broken beyond repair, I started to think about all the things I do with my laptop and how I would do them on a different computer. I wouldn’t be able to check facebook at work so that would be a problem. How would I stay current on what is going on with all my friends? And then there are websites only my computer knows the password to so that would be a problem. I quickly realized how dependent I am on my computer. Sad.

I got home late Friday night and Joey was kind enough to hook up a monitor and keyboard to my laptop so I have a working computer. Yay!

It seems to be working nicely except when a key decides to get stuck. You can’t do very much when your keyboard decides to press the same key over and over and over and…

It looks like we will be putting a new computer in the budget and I will never have liquids near my computer. Speaking of which, I am thristy!

The cats have found their new favorite spot in the windowsill – when the window is open of course.

This afternoon I tackled putting up our Christmas tree and the cats were very interested in the tree. As I was arranging the branches (I now know why people buy a real tree), Coco started climbing up the tree! Maybe it’s a good thing we don’t have a real tree or she’d have sap all over her.

Here is Pumpkin checking out the tree from on top of the TV:

Can you find Coco?

The un-decorated tree:

I’ll have to post more pictures when the tree is decorated. But first I have some shopping to do!

The other night we found Coco climbing on the laundry rack and got some pretty funny video. Check it out.
