Lotsa birdies

In the last month there have been two bird nests in our back yard!

The first one was a dark-eyed junco nest with four chicks in it. (The chicks are gone now.)

Now there's a swift nest with seven eggs in it - it'll probably be nine or more in a few days!

The junco eggs were whitish with brown speckles, but the swift eggs are pure white and about as big as my thumb nail (smaller than the junco's)! They look like tiny chicken eggs.
I didn't manage to get all of the eggs in the picture. (The seventh was hiding!)

The Chronicles of Pigeon-Hood and Sheriff Pinch-A-Lot

Annika had her Robin Hood birthday party. To my surprise, a lot of people came. We had an archery contest. We played "Rob the Rich" (steal the bacon).

James has learned how to pinch.

We went and saw Percy Jackson for a second time....

....and now I have the stomach flu (which isn't fun - thank you very much!) We've been laying around, eating saltines, drinking gatorade, watching Sponge Bob and Transformers. So yeah, today was pretty horrible.

Note: the fun stuff was on Saturday!

Livin' up to my name!


If I was turned into a bird, I've got my nest-building skills down! But I would have to survive on bird seed because I couldn't stand eating worms all the time. I ate a worm once(Well, sallowed it whole of course.). It didn't taste like anything but its little bristle-like feet feel horrible going down. (I think I would want to be a tree swallow. One climbed up my leg once.)

Who cares.


I admit it. I was jealous of Calvin. But my tiger isn't named Hobbes.

Yay...Sores.


Well, on Saint Patrick'S day, I had to dance in five long preformances with shoes that don't really fit me. And after that I've been hurting my ankles alot. I guess the old ankle injury I got last summer is acting up again. Yeah.
