Outside Again Part 4

*Note: After riding on my shoulder for a while Caline jumped down to explore.

 Caline, “This place is very different!”

 Caline, “I’ve never seen anything
like it before!”

Caline, “Did you know the world
could look so different when
you're outside?”

Outside Again Part 3

*Note: When Caline got down from her pedestal she began to hop because she did not like the feel of the forest floor. Then she tangled herself in a small plant like this:

 The Frenchman’s wife, “We can’t
walk like this!”



*Note: So as she did not like to walk on the ground and was tangling herself up I picked her up and let her ride on my shoulder like this: (Caline often rides on my shoulder when I have too many things in my hands and need to take her to another room. Frère, however, doesn’t trust that he will not fall so I have to hold him tight when I carry him, but most of the time I just call for him.)

The Frenchman’s wife, “What do you
see from up there?”

Caline, “There are lots of trees…”

Caline, “…and there are
birds in them!”

Caline, “Hey, do you hear this one!
He’s mocking me!”

Outside Again Part 2

*Note: After we walked around the castle to the woods behind it Caline found something, here’s what she found:

Caline, “What’s this!?”
The Frenchman, “I think that it was a
pedestal for a statue
once long ago.”

Caline, “Do I make a good statue?”
The Frenchman’s wife, “You sure do.
And the castle is beautiful
behind you.”

The Frenchman, “Come on and we’ll
go deeper in the woods.”

Caline, “Ok, I’m coming!”

Caline, “Oh wait, what’s that!?”

Caline, “Hey come fly this way!”

Caline, “Don’t go over there!”



*Note: Caline became distracted because of a fly that whizzed by. She and Frère both love to watch flies and birds as they soar by!
Here is a picture of the castle from the woods behind it:

Outside Again Part 1

*Note: Because it had been a while since we last took Caline outside we decided to take her out for a nice long walk since it was much wormer out side today. Here’s what happened:

 Caline, “Open the door wider
I want to go out now!!!”

Caline, “Well what are you two
waiting for? Come on!”

Caline, “Look I found a tree!”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Yes, I know
you pulled me over to it!”

Caline, “Look I found another!”

Caline, “Oh and this one is good…”

Caline, “…for climbing!”

Caline, “Hey what’s that?”

Caline, “Did you see where it went to?”
The Frenchman, “No.”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Caline, come
with us well take you to the woods
behind the castle!”

Who’s Top Cat

 The Frenchman, “Caline, you’re in a
very bright and sunny place!”



*Note: Just after having taken this picture someone else noticed the same thing and that someone wanted Caline’s spot!

Frère, “Move!”

Caline, “No you go away!”

Frère, “I said move!”

Caline, “No go away!”

Frère, “If you don’t move!”

Caline, “Gurr!!!”
Frère, “Gurr!!!”

Caline, “Ok, I’m going!”



Note: Caline and Frère have play fights every now and then but sometimes they fight because Frère considers himself to be dominant over Caline.  And as he is bigger than she is it is easy for him to have his way. But after this we moved the tower to a spot in the room where it could be in the sun and gave it to Caline. She was happy to be on the tower and in the sun!

The French Sphinx

 The Frenchman to his wife, “Did you know
that we owned a Sphinx?”
The Frenchman’s wife, “Do you think it
knows any good riddles?”

 Frère, “You two are bothering my nap!”

Frère, “And how can I be a Sphinx if I do
not have the head of a woman?”
The Frenchman’s wife, “That’s not a
very good riddle. Ask another.”



*Note: The riddle of the Sphinx is “What goes on four legs in the morning, on two legs at noon, and on three legs in the evening?”, know the answer?
Frère enjoys to lay and take naps with his arms stretched out in fount of himself just like this and every time he does this he reminds us of a Sphinx.

Nouveau Lieu Sieste

 The Frenchman’s wife, “Caline, there you are
I looked all over for you. What are you
going to do there?”

Caline, “What cat’s do best nap!!!”
