Here's little baby Baby Butterbean all tucked into a stocking cap/ sleeping bag, asleep in Craig's arms. She's was just six weeks old when this photo was taken.
Don't you just wish they would never grow up and grow old? We have a new little baby, now 5 months old. I so wish she would stay a baby for us. She is such a joy! But them we love them all. We have a 15 year old as well.
Well, there's no question about the fact that our Butterbean was the most winsome infant - but she's such a stunner now! I have never known a kitty with such a winning personality (Evangeline's in the other room - but it's true, I adore her wildly but she has NO butterbeanness to speak of)
Pictures like this wish I'd had more kitten experience. Of the four I've had, only one was a kitten when I got it. The other were Certified Pre-Owned Cats.
OMG Charlene Butterbean was SOOOO adorable! Well, she still is, of course. I clicked through a couple other pics and BOY Craig is a smokin' hottie. Wow. LOL. Congrats on a gorgeous family, both fur and hooman!! xo sherry
sweet little girl - i love her little white chin within all that darker fur. What a little sweetheart. :)
