At work

Wohoo!!!! I have finished my work assignments for this week. It feels GOOD! This time of year we have to write short reports on the students' progress and level and for me that's always agony. Buuuut, I AM FINISHED! I don't have to write any more reports this semester. Yay!

Here's a photo from my office:

We're expecting.... a kitten!

Ha! If you thought this was going to be about a baby, well a baby-baby, human baby.. Ha! No more of those in my future. Two healthy kids is quite enough for me. But I've realized I can't live without animals. I adore our little hamster Sigge, but he's just not cuddly enough for me. Although he's supersoft and quite nice for a hamster. Big Red likes him a lot too, they get along very well actually.

So me and Mr Red have decided (after some sweet-talking on my part) to get a cat. I so much want a dog, but it's just not possible, but a cat is totally possible, so we'll go there instead. We're getting a Devon Rex, they're kind of curly and have the cutest big bat-ears. They shed nearly no hair, which was the condition on Mr Red's part. I contacted a cattery in Norrköping called Zwelaboz owned by Pernilla. She currently has three kittens and we got to choose whichever one we wanted. We chose the female Xolo. The only downside is that she's only six weeks old so we can't take her home until December 8...

Enough text! Let's see some photos. First a collage I created in Picmonkey. BTW, we're calling the kitten Siri.

 
Isn't she cute?!!! Her eyes will be more green than blue when she gets older.

More photos...

The last photo is my favourite so far, just look at those little paws and that round little belly... :)
I ABSOLUTELY can't wait until we can take her home.

A new family member

I LOVE animals, well, all animals with fur. I SO MUCH want to get a dog, but it's not possible at the moment, so instead I decided to get the family a little hamster. I know, so typical first pet, but they are really cute AND easy to take care of. And since the kids aren't that old yet it will be perfect to practise with a hamster before getting a larger pet.

 

We named him Sigge and he's the standard hamster colour, but so cute. I'm training him to get used to be picked up and held, the lady at the pet store said I would do it for two weeks before letting the kids hold him themselves. He already seems fine with that, but he did bite Mr Red yesterday, so I think we will wait the two weeks before the kids can hold him. At least they can pet him a little when I hold him. They are very excited and want to check on him all the time. :)

Have a nice day // Johanna
