Waiting and the new rug

So, today was my due date which for the most part passed peacefully and without excitement. We'll see how much longer Baby Watson wants to hang out . . . but in the meantime, we're all just waiting and well, I may as well play with my new camera and photograph the pets : ) Mom got us a new rug at the art show today (it's really cool and made from "upcycled" upholstery mill scraps) and Iris has fallen in love. She has been on the rug for ever since we put it down on the floor:


Olivia came to investigate but was quite leery of the rug:



Iris gives Olivia the warning that this is in fact her territory


Then Iris peacefully returned to her total domination of the rug

C'mon baby Watson, the sooner you get here the sooner you can enjoy your 4-legged brothers and sisters! Iris did incredibly well with a baby the other day . . . she'll let you pet her and gently tug on her hair I promise!
