Millie Went Missing

I woke up this morning and realized I hadn't seen Millie in a long while. She usually sleeps at my feet and I hadn't remembered her being there at all. Plus, she usually scratches on the dresser a few times a night warranting a thrown pillow or two.

Around four this morning the neighbors dog began barking incessantly. I should have trusted my gut and gone to check it out. You see, it had occurred to me that maybe Millie was out. I quickly shot that thought down because Millie doesn't go outside and there was no way she could have gotten out.

Fast forward to this morning. I woke up and went looking for Millie. I looked everywhere and I could not find her. So I decided to look out in the backyard. There Millie was laying down behind the air conditioner. Strange enough Millie came to live with us because Kevin's parents found her behind an air conditioner while they were on a walk in Columbia, MO. She was shaking and cold but unharmed. We still have no idea how she got out. We only left the house once. She must have snuck out and through the garage during that time. I guess we will have to be extra cautious now.

Meghan fell asleep on the carpet this morning while she was playing. I took advantage and used the time to practice using the manual setting on my camera.

We played with the shape sorter this afternoon. Up until know Meghan has been able to get the circle and the square in. Today she finally got the star and the triangle in. I love her concentration in this picture.
