Bird Feeders


I've been promising Dawson for the past few weeks that we would make bird feeders. The plan was to do it with a few of his friends but between Brooklyn moving and it being cold when Kaeli was here we never got around to it. So we finally made them yesterday. They were just the simple pinecones rolled in peanut butter and bird seed but he really enjoyed making them. We have even had a few birds "stop by" the house and eat off of them! Dawson tried eating them as we were making them. It was funny watching him try to get all the bird seed off of his tongue. He didn't like the way it tasted. Hopefully he won't start eating the cat's food next!

Today is also Uncle Chuck's birthday. He is on a mission in Raleigh NC and is quickly approaching his one year mark in July. I am so proud of him going and for how much he has grown already. He's currently in Rockingham NC and is training a greenie. Happy 20th Chuck!

Would have been fun for all of us to make them but we can always do it some other time... he looked like he had fun at least... I did get to relax this weekend and it was really nice.. the medicine seems to be helping the baby.. she slept through the night two nights in a row... I am going to try to get her back on schedule so she will do it every night... anyways, how are you feeling prego wise? talk to you soon... love ya..

Fun! I love the pine cone bird feeders. I'll have to do some with the kids this summer. Too funny that Dawson tried to eat it. ;o)

I forgot Chuck's bday was coming up. His is right after mine. 20 already?! Happy Birthday, Chuck!!!
