Norman vs. Darth Vader

Norman likes playing with Lego’s, too.

Norman Love

He sure does love his kitty!

Lego Winter Village–Toy Shop

Norman is eyeballing the Lego’s.  His favorite thing to do is jump on the table and bat the Lego’s off and chase them around the floor.

See, told you.  He has hours of fun with Lego’s.  He is definitely a good cat for Brice.

Not so happy at being kicked off. 

We have lots of fun building Lego’s together.  I picked up the Bakery and Ryder and I built most of that.  There is one more set we don’t have, but that will have to wait for another year.  Hopefully Lego continues to put out a new set each year, because this is a tradition I would like to carry on with the boys.  I love that our ‘winter village’ is a Lego village. 

Norman + Brice

There’s no doubt about it, Brice loves Norman.   

Every opportunity Brice gets, he has to carry Norman around or give him hugs and cuddles.  And I can’t believe how good Norman is with it all.  He just takes it in stride.  Although, Brice is pretty gentle with him.  When Brice picks him up and carry’s him around and sets him down, he just runs away, even though he knows Brice is just going to go pick him up again.  I’m always telling Brice to just leave Norman be, worrying that Norman will just run and hide from him.  But then something like the next photo happens (this was last night) and I know there is nothing to worry about. 

Brice was asleep on our bed, I went to my computer for a few minutes and when I turned around I saw that Norman had not only jumped on the bed, but cuddled next to Brice.  I’d say they are going to be very good buddies.

Our Day in Photos

We had a full day complete with Brice throwing up on himself at Grandma Dorothy’s, Norman and Tucker nose to nose and a few batches of cookies.  Very full and so much fun!

Brice + Norman

I’m sure you’re all wondering how it’s going with Brice and Norman.  They are figuring it out.  Norman is not so sure about this kid that wants to follow him around and hold him.  Brice is oblivious to Norman’s feelings on the topic, as would be most kids at 3 years old.  He loves to pick him up and bring him to me.  (Despite how it looks in the photos, he’s actually very gentle with Norman.)  I especially love it when he asks me “Where’s my kitty?”  There is something so cute about the way he says “kitty”.  Tonight he told me Norman was my kitty and Huma was his kitty.   Ryder got to spend time with Norman this weekend.  I think Norman really likes him, as he spent a lot of time in the sewing room with him while he was on the computer.  I had to of course give Ryder a bad time, because he kept saying we didn’t need a cat, and yet he can’t get enough of holding him. 

Norman

We have a new baby around the house.  A Flame Point Siamese.  We rescued him from the humane society.  He is such a great kitty already.  He went for a field mouse that was inside the house his first night here!  What’s not to love about that?!?  He’s about 16 weeks old, but looks more like 8 weeks, he’s so tiny.  He’s so gentle and just a big lover-boy.  He has the cutest little meow and likes to talk to with me.  Brice loves having him and keeps calling him “my kitty”, which makes me very happy to be able to give him this experience in life.  I’m sure we’ll be sharing more photos in the days to come.

And he’s already finding his new spots around the house.  Lots of window sills and views from here.
