Mr Putty Pants Christmas

It's finally Christmas morning and I annoyed my humans enough to get them out of bed so we could get this day going.  I scampered around the tree to find my presents. 

Oh boy, this one's for me.  

Look what New Big Friend got me, stylish black rubber boots to keep my feet dry. How thoughtful of him. He knows how I love footwear.

Girly got me something too...roller skates.  Ooooooh, this should be fun.
I can zoom around and annoy everyone.

...or not, as I immediately did a face plant.

Hmmm, these things are tricky. I banged into lots of objects, knocked things over and dragged ornaments off the tree in my attempts at being proficient. 

I finally got the hang of it and pretty soon I was zooming around...unfortunately, I hadn't got turning or stopping figured out
as I got too close to the top of the stairs.  This is all Girly's fault, I bet she arranged this...a cunning plan indeed.

 
I went hurtling over the edge and bounced my way down the stairs. 

Ouch!
Urg!
Umph!
Plonk! 

It's a good thing I'm soft and woolly, and bounce pretty good, but I'll still get her for this. There better be some chocolates under that tree to make up for this. 

Merry Christmas everyone.

Ho! Ho! Ho! It's Mr Putty Pants

I prefer to visit the naughty folks, you know who you are. Get ready for my visit...don't forget to leave the chocolates out.

A Snow Day for Mr Putty Pants

WOWEEE look at all that snow out there! I thought it would be fun to go outside and romp around so I ordered Girly to get me dressed for such an occasion. This is me all bundled up and ready to go.

Ooh, this is nice. Being as light as a feather I can stand on top of the snow.

I started to explore the backyard but I found myself sinking into the snow. Darn those donuts and cookies.

Pretty soon I was floundering about head first in the snow. Girly, of course, had gone back in the house and could not hear me calling for help. Curse those humans!

I finally managed to right myself after a lot of flailing about.

I tried to make it back to the house but I got caught in a huge drift, succeeding to embed myself in its side like a great woolly mammoth only to be found when the great melt comes. Somehow this is all Girly's fault.

After an ice age of time, I managed to free myself and make it back into the house. I left my cap on a snowdrift to make Girly think I'm lost somewhere in the snow while I'm sitting by a warm furnace vent sipping hot chocolate.

Mr Putty Pants Helps Trim The Tree

One day when my human handlers left me alone, I took it upon myself to add a few more lights to the Christmas tree. I wasn't allowed to help out this time due to "the incident" from last year...humans can be so fussy!

So here I am trying to figure out how to get these darned lights up into the tree...hmmm, maybe if I hold them this way?

I was absorbed in this problem when all of a sudden, Mr Kitty jumped out of the branches above me batting at an expensive decoration...sheesh Mr Kitty, you're gonna get me in trouble if you break something.

I was ordering him down when I slipped and fell off my step stool, landing in a pile on the floor. I got all tangled up and couldn't get undone so I ended up staying there for several hours until my humans came home. There was a lot of finger wagging and thinly disguised laughter. Humans can be so cruel don't you think?

The whole time Mr Kitty was undetected in the branches of the tree. I think I saw him sniggering too. Rotten kitten.

Mr Putty Pants Winter Activities

I'm back, sorry for my absence. Girly wouldn't let me near the computer after I spilled hot chocolate all over the keyboard of her precious Mac...sheesh, some humans can be so anal.

So, we, that is myself and my human handlers, stopped by Girly's parents place in the country. My humans had bought me a boat so I could kayak with them (after relentless begging by me of course). But there was snow on the ground, so they thought it would be fun to launch me from the top of the hill and watch me zoom down into the pond at the bottom. I didn't get a say in this as they already had me strapped in. Here I gooooooo!

Onto the pond I went, pretty cool. I know I'm looking very dashing in my woolly cap and mittens as I zoom along the water in my spanking new red kayak.

I managed to get around the pond a few times before the momentum wore off. It seems I'm supposed to do some paddling or something to keep this boat going. I'll have to attach some kind of outboard on this rig so I can side swipe my humans as I zoom past them.

Here I am coming ashore after some exhilarating boating activity. Dodged a few snapping turtles and scared some fish. Can't wait to do more.

Seems my future boating activities will have to wait as the big snows came down by next morning laying thick on the ground at Girly's parents place. A little fellow like me could get lost in that.

Mr Putty Pants Goes Trick or Treating

Well I'm off for a night of prowling the neighbourhood. I might look cute and fluffy in my bunny outfit but being the weird little fellow that I am, and those that know me will be very aware, it's all a trick. This is my favourite time of year, candy and sweets combined with unbridled ghoulishness. Anybody want to join in the fun?

Mr Putty Pants Behind The Camera

I was messing around outside when I was told we were going on a road trip. Camping and kayaking...oh boy!

The next thing I knew, Mr Kitty was telling me he was coming too. I had to put my foot down and say "no, kittens and water don't mix". Besides road trips are my thing and it's for my, I mean "his" own good.

Being the enterprising fellow that I am, I riffled around in Girly's purse to get her camera. I thought it was time I took a few pictures on this trip of ours.

So without anyone suspecting I got a little snap happy. Here's New Big Friend.

Here are my shoes...oops, looks like I got my thumb in the way.

I took a shot of myself. Darn that thumb.

Here's the sun.

This is me looking out the window sulking when Girly finally caught me and took the camera away. Rotten humans, I'll get her.

Along the way we encountered some interesting weather. I didn't take this since I no longer had control of the camera...bummer. We eventually arrived and set up camp. My humans wanted to go kayaking right away...don't they ever relax. They should take a page out of my book.

Speaking of bummers, when Girly had her back turned I slipped the camera out of her bag again and took this stunning shot....her best angle of course...ha ha!

Darn that Girly, she caught me again and I was relegated to the car. I got bored so I changed my hat and shoes to entertain myself whilst they went out kayaking. I didn't want to go anyway.

Here's some smiley human shots of my handlers as they enjoy themselves without my annoying company.

Here's another one, oh so pretty. I could have taken a shot like that too...IF I HAD A CAMERA! and wasn't locked in the car.

They arrived back and let me out and we all sat around the campfire. It was a little chilly so I borrowed New Big Friends jacket. He'll have to freeze, too bad.

Two days later, after more of the same boring human stuff, we went home. I managed to get the camera again and shot this gas stop over. I think my pictures are better than Girly's.

Mr Putty Pants And Friends

Here I am with some buds of mine posing for a group shot. Look at that cheeky bear, he has the same shoes as me...I had mine first...copy cat!

Mr Putty Pants Lurks Under The Table

Here's some shots of me lurking under the glass topped patio table. I was watching everyone eat. They ignored me. Rotten humans!

I gave them my best beseeching gaze...all to no avail.

Wouldn't you feed me?
