check out our new nest!

made you look!

you thought we were moving, right?
we have a new nest, but not the kind you are thinking of. lately i thought there was an over abundance of birds in the area until i noticed this little creation: (top of wreath)

here take a closer look:

now i realize why i was being dive-bombed every day for the last week. some new neighbors have moved in and are building a nest in the wreath just outside our front door. poor location is my thought. too many people and our front porch light is always on. should i turn it off? we will see how this all progresses. it will be fun to see the baby birds when they hatch and now i need to figure out what kind of bird these are.


p.s. the other night as i was tucking in 'small fry' she asked me to tell everyone that she can now swing on her own. she then sat strait up in her bed and said, "oh, mom! you can blog about it! blog about me swinging on my own." soooo...

'SMALL FRY' CAN NOW SWING ON HER OWN!

i don't who is more excited. now i don't have to do under-dog after under-dog. at least not until 'tater tot' is bigger. it's one of those bitter-sweet moments. happy to have her become a 'big kid' but also sad that she no longer needs me (at least for swinging).
