tooth

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a tooth.

Rhubarb

Rhubarb, fresh from the garden...

Just swingin

Look closely

Look closely. Can you see it? Laura hid my Mother's Day gift in a pretty secretive place...

OK, here's a hint:
Can't tell you what they are yet, but I'm excited!

Adam scoots...backwards

bathtime

We woke up very early this morning and had an empty hour and half before Laura's 'school' started. What to do? Bath!

House Finch

I think you guys are right that they are house finches. Thanks for the info!

Adam

I was kind of worried last summer when I found out that we were having a boy. I didn't know anything about boys, could we bond, would it be as much fun as having a girl? Well, I shouldn't have worried. He has fit in just great and we're all glad he's here.

When

Bird Update

I was peeking at the two baby birds for the first time in a while. They were HUGE and barely fit in the nest together. I was perching (ha ha) on the rocking chair and they were peering back at me when they suddenly flew into my face and out from under the porch to a nearby tree. Surprised the heck out of me. I would have loved to have a picture of them cuddled in the nest, but they haven't come back yet. I was watching them in the tree across the street and heard the mom and dad in our tree yelling at me. Here's a picture of them. The dad has a red head with brown body and the mom is all brown. They are pretty small, but very noisy when they are protecting their babies. I think they are purple finches. Anyone know?

Forest

Here's Laura's forest that she drew upside down. There is a person, lots of trees, 2 ponds and a fish. Pretty cool!
