Our New Pet and Hidden Talents

Lately we have been going back and forth about getting a pet. Hamster, bunny, chinchilla, fish, guinea pig... You know the routine. Something small that the kids can be involved in caring for with Scott. I think today a pet found us. Our bird feeder has been supplying treats for local birds for about a year now. This morning a squirrel discovered it. The first time we have seen a squirrel take interest in the feeder. They spent all last summer running along the fence, passing it without a second glance. But today this little squirrel hit the jackpot.
Recently Allie learned how to cross her eyes. Then she figured out how to turn out her lower lip and stick out her tongue to make fat lips. Last night for dinner we got a combo.
