OH, it's an exciting day around here because Ms Bean turns FOUR !
In honor of the day, I put a little "highlights" reel of her first four years. I hope you all enjoy this little trip down memory lane with her.
Check back again, there will be lots more birthday fun!
Will she be getting kittens for her birthday?
ReplyDeleteOh that is so cool! Happy Birthday Charlene! Today is our kitty Lola's birthday too - though she is quite a lot older!
ReplyDeleteWe hope you have a wonderful, fun day!!
Happy Birthday, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of cat is Charlene? Is she a Birman?
Anne,,, That would be the perfect gift for the bean. We're still waiting though...
ReplyDeleteAnon,,, she looks like a birman, but we don't really know what she his. she was a shelter kitty and we don't know her history.
Happy Birthday, Miss Bean!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Bean!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Beautiful Bean!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
ReplyDeleteLaurie, you make the bestest videos ever.
Happy Birthday Bean! You and my husband share the same birthday, but you're much cuter. I hope you get a bowl of kitten food for your birthday. And some belly rubs. And a new catnip mouse. And I hope you get to poke Drewey at least once, provided you don't hurt her.
ReplyDeleteAw, happy birthday, Charlene Butterbean of the Magnificent Floof!
ReplyDeleteThat "crinkle ... crackle ... pop!" sound? Yeah, that was my heart.
ReplyDeleteBest birthday wishes to you, Ms. Butterbean!
Annette
oh ms beanie that was totally adorable!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Bean! I have to say my ginger tabby is not happy that I am watching a video of Bean and wants attention NOW :).
ReplyDeleteHappy Bday Bean!!!
ReplyDeleteSigh, You are so amazing Laurie - thank you for this fun Charlene retrospective. She was a silly, pretty looking cutie when she was a wee one.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to kinda see how her coloring changed.
And Miss Butterbean - your floof is beautiful beyond compare! As is your kitty heart, overflowing with love for all the fosters.
As a celebration I will lay out some 'nip for Toes and Marbles - especially since they allow me to enjoy you and the IBK's
Aww, Happy Birthday pretty Charlene!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, your majesty! Long live Queen Bean!
ReplyDeleteAh Charlene, what a great life you have! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, BeanGirl!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to the Butterbean, happy birthday to you! =^..^=
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Beanie!!
ReplyDelete{{Cornelius!!}}
Happy Birthday to the Bean!
ReplyDeleteYou are a gift to the world, Ms. Bean. We love you. Happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteAwww, she was such a cute kitten!
ReplyDeleteThe video is too fast! I want to take my time soaking up the cute of Baby Bean... :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT! Thank you so much. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Charlene!!
Happy Birthday dear Ms. Bean!!! Love the video! I hope you have a wonderful birthday!! Love, Debbie
ReplyDeleteWow! Little, itty bitty Beanie, sleek, slinky, teenage Beanie, and grown-up, floofy Beanie all in one video! With special guest appearances by Drewster and, hey, was that Craig with curls?
ReplyDeleteI love the thwarted Drewey cuddle at about 1:35. I suspect that Charlene would pin Drewey and give her a bath if only she was willing.
Happy Birthday Butterbean!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, adorable cat!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!! Love The Bean as an itty bitty herself (so adorable!) and the fleeting appearances of Drewey who, as usual, is not amused.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Bean!!! You make me smile whenever I see you:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice video. Ms. Bean usually looks so regal and serene, but every once in a while I can see the devil in her expression. I thought one clip looked like some kittens were trying to nurse on her. Did they? I guess that could happen.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beauty! She changed so much, too - from a precious little kitten into a floofy, glamorous adult. Makes me miss the days when my big floofy boy cat was also an itty bitty...
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling beautiful girl she is! Happy Birthday Ms. Bean!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely amazing video of Charlene! Happy Birthday Ms. Butterbean!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Butterbean!
ReplyDeleteDid I mention lately that I love you, Charlene? You make me smile :)
Aw, Happy Birthday Bean! Hope you have a wonderful day, despite the lack of babies to play with.
ReplyDeleteAnd, Laurie, thank you for the retrospective - I wish I had a similar record of my two growing up.
Blessings to the Bean!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Ms Butterbean!
ReplyDeleteI like you best when you play, when you watch, when you give kittens a bath, when, when;
OK I just love you
Happy Birthday Charlene! From your biggest fans - Atticus, Mae, Gandalf and Malcolm.
ReplyDeleteThis kind of event and this video do NOT NOT NOT help with my Charlene Butterbean obsession! They just fuel it! Happy Birthday, Butterbean!
ReplyDeleteHappy happy birthday, Charlene Butterbean!
