Okay, okay, I know this is a fiber arts blog and I'm supposed to stick to the task at hand, but who could resist this little face?
This is Mr. Bingley! (Some of you BBC/Austen fans might argue that this is Mr. Bingley, but we beg to differ.) David and I just adopted him from the amazing and worthwhile Pixie Project. We are so excited to have a new addition to our family, and he has been a delight thus far. We are still getting to know each other, of course. Mr. Bingley is not at all convinced of our decision that he will not be sleeping on the big bed, and we are just beginning to get acquainted with his manners and his habits.
"I have habits?"
He's getting less freaked out all the time at moving to a new place, and is showing a friskier side than he did at first (he napped for most of yesterday). Nonetheless, as soon as there is a lap in which to sit, he crawls right in and burrows into slumber. He also burrows in blankets, robes, and bedding, and would do the same to a decent-sized piece of knitting if given half the chance. He tried in his dainty way to make off with a ball of Jo Sharp DK, grabbing it delicately by one strand and carrying it toward his nest before I intercepted him.
Wish us luck! We are incredibly excited.
So cute! Congratulations.
Oh, he is so cute! Such a beautiful animal.
Oh, so cute! And what a great name.
Also, I'm tagging you. Play along if you'd like. Questions are here.
What a gorgeous little fellow! And the puppy's cute too. Enjoy, pet ownership is a true joy.
