You're So Vain, You Probably Think This Blog is About You

I finally got a picture of our Maggie girl in the mirror. It's a dangerous thing, passing by the mirror, so she is sure to check it out. Well, for those of you keeping tally, Maggie had a few new first's this week. She had her first "outside time" which consisted of me holding her on the patio, her hearing the dogs barking, jumping out of my arms and running back inside! She also had her first kill(s) - two mosquito hawks sealed their fate when they flew into our house last night. She successfully hunted them down and devoured them. Yikes! It was like National Geographic: Suburban Edition in my own living room. I'm glad I'm bigger than her! She also had her first overnight visitors, who were really good sports with such a crazy kitten. She was so grateful, that she showed it by playing with them in the middle of the night! Well, enough kitten talk - here is the good stuff: a video montage of Maggie attacking the scratching post. My count is: Maggie: 7, Feather Ball:1 Enjoy!

Maggie, you're a wild girl! I hope you don't bonk your head on the hearth. I'm told that mosquito hawks can be very tasty...Harley hasn't had a chance to enjoy that delicacy yet. However, he has eaten a few ants and some mysterious flying black bugs. Yum!
Dad and I are very excited to see Maggie in person.

Julie, I enjoyed the video! Great work on capturing the essence of Maggie.

By the way, kuddos to the unknown Jennings who was faithfully resetting the toy so that Maggie could get her work out and we could get a laugh. :)

P.S. Your writing style is so engaging!
