Lyra

We have had a very difficult time taking pictures of Lyra because she is always moving (who says a perpetual motion machine does not exist?). The other problem is that Lyra is at that age where she takes lots of tumbles and the results are not something we want to photograph. She fell into a table at Starbucks and got a big bruise on one of her cheeks. Just as it was healing, she fell into the shelf on our kitchen worktable and bruised the other side. POOR BABY!

The cats are remarkably tolerant of Lyra. I wonder when they will decide she is not a kitten anymore. Lyra is five days shy of 17 months. She has gotten much pickier about her food but rice, beans and guac are always favorites. So who do you think she looks like?














Here is Lyra playing by the kitchen worktable where she got her bruise the other day. In a different household, there would be a beautiful ceramic mixing bowl there or perhaps some decorative baskets on that lower shelf. In OUR household, we have a basket of toys, a teddy bear and crumbs from Lyra's snack. Lyra also likes to sit on the shelf or in any little hidey-hole area she can find.
