Baby Love

Who wouldn't love this sweet baby? Sydney loves Owen (or so I'd like to believe), and I think the feeling is mutual (or so I'd like to believe).

The first evidence of feline baby love was while I was still pregnant. Sydney would often sit on my belly and purr. Owen would reciprocate his affection (or annoyance) by kicking. Here's Syd and Owen's first picture together.

In politics proximity to power is important. Assuming that Owen is the "president" of our little family, Syd is aiming for an appointment as his chief of staff. She shows her ambition mostly by napping on Owen's accoutrements such as, his stroller, his bassinet, his Dad and most recently his changing table.

Syd's penchant for all things Owen requires a lot of hair removal and shooing but Owen doesn't seem to mind. These days he's more interested in his hands, a recent discovery, and his bunny lovey blanket. For now Syd is anxious for Owen to pet her, we'll see if she feels the same way once Owen is on the move.
