What the cat dragged in...

A frog. Yep, sure did. It's been raining a ton, and we live on a pond so it's not beyond one's imagination. Marmaduke has become an indoor/outdoor cat and had been in and out most of the afternoon. All of a sudden, Dave walked into the kitchen and there was Marm with his "toy" a poor three inch frog laying on it's back, probably cowering in fear. Dave picked it up, rescued it (by tossing it back out into the yard), and I disinfected the kitchen floor (ew, gross).

In other news, Noah is sick. I found this out because as he was in kid's church this morning, he just laid on the floor or with his head on the table when I came in to feed Callie. I finally decided to pull him from kid's church because this was not normal behavior for him. He fell asleep on me in big church and I just snuggled with him, praying over him, but also enjoying being able to comfort my big boy.

Noah, Callie, and I (for a change) all took naps this afternoon. I'm not sure what Dave did, maybe watched football...but I let him sleep in an extra two hours this morning, so it was fair that I got to nap this afternoon.

Now, I'm making ham and homemade mac n cheese...a good rainy day meal. There goes the timer. Have a good night.

oh, that is too funny about the frog!we have had the same one( I think) living on our back porch for 3 years! our dog and cat just hang with him in the evenings!
poor lil dude, I saw him kinda just hanging on you up front.. and was thinking, he was like asleep with his eyes open!!
hope he gets feeling better.. though I love them when they're all cuddly, like that!
