After numerous frost warnings on the evening news and bringing the potted flowers into the garage and screen porch - WE HAVE SURVIVED. If you remember from a previous post, I painted the pots this winter and now they are filled with beautiful flowers and they decorate my deck and house.
I mix up about two gallons of sugar water twice a week and fill the feeders some times twice a day. I have counted about 8 to 10 birds flying around the feeders at one time. This morning as I was sitting out there drinking my coffee I decided to set up my tripod and camera and hoped to get some pictures of these little guys. Let me tell you they are not camera shy. The tripod was only about two feet from the feeders and as I was snapping pictures they would come flying right up to me.
Besides his new baby sister, Eric spends most of the day carrying around his basketball and shooting hoops, talking to Elmo on the phone, cutting up his plastic veggies and cleaning the house with his new vac "Dusty". By the end of the day I was exhausted...
As faith may have it I was in Boston the night Sophia was born. I got to hold her the next day in the hospital. She is a beautiful little girl and cute as a button. She was a perfect baby when I was there, however from what I hear she has her good nights and her bad nights. Be sure to check out the link to Doug & Val's blog. I am sure we will be seeing more of Sophia and her big brother, Eric.
