Phantom woke me up today, as he does every day. I guess he gets to a point where he decides “That’s enough; I need love, dammit!” Today wasn’t silly, annoying licks as usual but rather rough bites; he must have really wanted to play but as he is growing, it hurts more and more.

It’s hard to believe we’ve only had him less than 2 weeks; he is growing so fast. Where there used to be a cute little kitten with scruffy fur, I can see him blossoming into a beautiful cat with a sleak coat. Unfortunately, the scruff fur seems to be shedding all over my floor. LOL

He is also developing some more markings like a circle of lighter fur on each of his sides/thighs which is pretty cute.

If you have been following me anywhere else online, then you have probably noticed I am the mommy of a new kitten named Phantom. Ryan and I went looking on Monday, put down a payment and decided to go back Tuesday. He is a 2 month old Russian blue with gorgeous eyes and too much energy for his own good (or ours!). He is a little naughty but also very sweet and grew on us very quickly, even Ryan who doesn’t like cats. I think this is a new page in his book!

I have also uploaded photos from our trip to Lake Towada as well as photos of my bedroom and our new car at my Flickr account and I will very quickly be bringing them over here. There are some great shots of waterfalls and the natural sights Japan has to offer.

It took me a little longer than usual to upload photos because my USB cord was being shipped and I didn’t want to upload onto the laptop (probably a good idea because Ryan has not broken it) but I am really pleased with some of the shots I got.

I will definitely be taking lots of pictures of my little menace precious darling, and not just with my camera – although the pictures from it are not horrible.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
