Could I be married to Noah??

I think I was a veterinarian in another life. Or maybe an animal on the Ark and now I want to show my appreciation for Noah's determination.

Honestly, I'm a softie when it comes to animals. I want to love them, snuggle them, and feed them and make them plump little creatures. I posted not to long ago about it and the post was about my dog Charlie. He is a mutt that I found on the side of the road. I also posted about how my husband would likely divorce me if I brought home another creature. He says 2 cats and 2 dogs and 3 kids are enough mouths to feed.

Meet Milo. He was brought to our family by none other than my HUSBAND!! You might remember that I mentioned  he would divorce me if I brought home another stray. I might be a softie, but neither is he. Well, looks like I'm not Noah after all.

But I just might have married him.

Buzz Lightyear is a bad influence...

Hollis and Buzz Lightyear are like peas and carrots. They are always together. We take one of his many Buzzes wherever we go. Buzz Lightyear, according to Hollis, is his brother.

From the minute Buzz Lightyear graced the TV screen, Hollis was in love. He wanted to be Buzz. So it was no surprise when Hollis said that Buzz was his brother, his best friend. He identified with Buzz. He even has a laser on his arm like Buzz. He shoots everything from the cat to his own parents.

It was no surprise yesterday when I was in the kitchen and heard "To Infinity and Beyond". The surprise came a few seconds later when I walked in the living room and saw his posed on the edge of the couch with one hand in the air. He was about to try to jump over the coffee table from the couch. Before I could get a word out he had jumped. Let me just say that it didn't end well. Hollis now has a busted lip.

I'm seriously thinking about his and Buzz's relationship. Maybe too much Buzz is a bad thing...he clearly is a bad influence.
