More Getting Ready for Baby

More stuff just keeps being put in the nursery. It's so cool. There's a floor gym in there now so I don't have to worry about getting out to be able to work out. The crib mattress is nice and firm just how I like it. There's even a cool mobile hanging on the crib now that I can bat at. Yesterday Mom and Dad brought home a cool rocking chair so that Mom can sit and rock me. Apparently her grandfather gave it to Grand mew mew when Mom was born. It's really comfy to sit in.

Here's a picture of my pregnant Mom. When my birth mom was that big she had six of us. Wonder how many Mom is having?

Maintenance Man, um I Mean Cat

Dad was doing some work on the floor vents yesterday and even though I generally prefer not to work weekends, I agreed to come in and consult on the job with him. It helps having a cat for a maintenance man, we can see into dark spaces without a light source. Once I explained to him that the duct work had gotten moved and how it needed to go back he seemed to understand and did a pretty good job fixing it. I checked out the finished product and though it lacked a certain "catmanship" it was still a decent job. Way to go Dad.

Robert's Stroller???...

... Or my cool new fort! Not only does it have a basket underneath that I can ride in, but if I get up top it's fun to hide and bat at Harley when she goes by. This is so cool. Wonder if maybe Mom will let me keep it, she can just carry the baby around. After all, how big could a baby be?

Check Out My New Ride!!!

Mom and Dad put together this cool new thing last night. They called it a stroller. It's got this great spot for the baby to go and a way cool basket underneath for me! Me and RC are gonna be riding in style! We'll be able to go on long walks, to the mall... ooohhhh... I can take him to Dean and Deluca and introduce him to the wonderful world of lox! Oh yeah, I'm loving our sweet new ride.

New Form of Expression

I've found a new way to express myself... embroidered bibs! Grand-mew-mew... I'm coming!!!

Loving ATB (All Things Baby)

Baby stuff is so cool!!! We've got this swing in the living room... it looks really neat. I keep trying to get to the animals hanging off the top of it but every time I touch it, it starts to move. I'm getting braver each day and soon shall conquer these beasts of the jungle.

Dad put together the crib/changing table today. I, as always, supervised. It's really cool. The baby can sleep in the crib and I can keep watch over him from the changing table. I can also stretch out on the rug and see everything.

There are a lot of baskets and shelves to explore. It seems every day Mom puts something new in the baby's room. Unfortunately they've put up a gate so I can't get in there unless Mom or Dad lets me in... I'd love to have a day in there to explore. At least Harley can't get in either... she'd probably chew everything up.

Robert's Room

Robert's room is pretty much finished. Mom just needs to get a crib, pick up the rocker and finish stocking the shelves... but don't stock them too much, leave some room for me! I love hanging out in this room... it's a real "guy" space. A lot roomier than the cat cave. I can't wait until the little guy gets here so I can play with him. The blankets mom has so far are really soft and I'm gonna love snuggling in to them. I hope he's not a blanket hog, maybe Mom will put out one for him and one for me. I'm also thinking there's a good space under the window between the bookshelves to put a nice cat condo. That way I'll be able to look out the window and watch the baby when he sleeps. I think Dad's going to Petco tomorrow... maybe I can get him to pick one up for me.

Another New Room

OK people, we're about 50 days away from the birth of my new baby brother, we gotta have a room for him! I took over operation Robert's Room Preparation. Today I got Mom and Dad both up and got them working! Dad had already painted two walls so it was time to wall paper the other two. They didn't get completely done, we'll do the rest tomorrow... oh yeah, there's a border that has to go up too. I think it's looking pretty good so far. After that's done we can get a crib... I'm voting for one that is cat friendly so I can sleep with him and make sure he has everything he needs... and that Harley keeps her stupid paws off of him!

Cat Cave!!!

Mom and Dad finally realized that I'm a growing boy and I need my own space! Thus the Cat Cave was born. I have my own room in the basement. Yes, they also use it as storage but I have plenty of things to climb on, food, my litter box, my bed and toys all in a private room. The best part about it... Harley can't get in! HA!! She will lay outside the door and wait for me to come out. It's so great when I get her to chase me and run in the little door leaving her outside... drives her nuts!
