Picture of the Week ~Happy Birthday Lex~

(Editor's note:  It's technically my Sunday so this post is not a day late, but I'm sorry for being a bloggie slacker.  More posts to come this week including updates about Beanette's amazing shower)

Now onto a very important picture of the week...

The little kitty cat that turned Denny and I into Crazy Cat People turned 6 today!! 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEXI GIRL!!

She is growing up so fast!  Seems like just yesterday we were enrolling her at kittygarten!

Birthday Girl when she was just a few weeks old!
When we thought about getting a pet in the fall of 2006 we took a trip to the SPCA with no intention to bring anything home... then we saw a sweet little kitty struggling to even jump 3 inches from the upper shelf to the lower shelf of her cage.  She was so cute and tiny we could not leave her.  The next thing we knew, we were new kitty parents to Lexi!!


During her first few months, she was so tiny that she would fit inside my heels, and we were constantly worrying about losing her.  She once spent a few minutes in the fridge after sneaking in while we unloaded groceries.  Luckily we realized it in no time, and found her on the beer shelf, chilled but unharmed.

Little Lex has been quite the little entertainer over the past few years!  She is always there to greet us when we get home and is an excellent cuddler.  

For her Big Birthday today she celebrated with a Fancy Feast breakfast buffet.  She rocked out to her favorite songs, Bringin Lexi Back (the other kitties don't know how to act) and I'm Lexi and I Know It!  She had a nap and then watched out the window for her boyfriend kitty, Bazooka Joe.  It was a pretty good day for her! 

Happy Birthday Lexi!  Six years ago today I would never imagine that I would spend my night blogging about a cat, but your cute little 7-lb self sure has worked your Lexi magic and turned us into your #1 Fans!!    XOXO
