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.

  3. 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.

    But that Bean was adorable too.......

  4. 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)

    While we await a new litter of little ones, can you give us an update on the oh-so-fluffy Francine and Selma Darling?

  14. Hand over the Beanie Baby, and nobody gets hurt.

    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.

  23. Wow, she was adorable! She remembers how she felt as an itty bitty and how much love she received from you and Craig.
