Go figure!

Well, well, well...Butler wasn't concerned about the threat of leaving him home alone to play with the cats....
He DESTROYED my kitchen last night!

Here's the long version of the story, in bits and pieces:

Part 1
Yesterday, I found out that the lady I hired to bake Addie's birthday cake is having unplanned surgery and will be unable to bake the cake. After calling around to all of my "back up" people and the only bakeries that I like, I'm still left with no one.

Julien was thrilled and couldn't believe Butler. He decided he was going to camp out with Butler in the living room the rest of the night, just to keep him from destroying anything else...

Part 3
When Julien woke up this morning (for the second time), he came straight in the bathroom and informed me that Butler was just trying to help since he knew that I was trying to find someone to bake Addie's cake...
Julien is ALWAYS thinking of others and trying to bail Butler out at the same time!
