Dougal Gets a Cut, Chicks Get Some Grubs

This has been an interesting week.  Highlights include: Dougal gets a great haircut….dscf7459

We fed mealworm grubs to the chicks for the first time….dscf7440

Emily actually came home with a “D” on her Social Studies Folder (I won’t show a picture of THAT).  Ethan has his first cavity (won’t show that either!).  I am starting to feel a little bit better.  It is only Thursday and all this…oh!  I rescued a knocked out little bird!  This bird hit our window so hard.  When I went to look to see what happened, it was lying on the window ledge, knocked out in the pouring rain!  So, I opened the window and held it for awhile.  She didn’t open her eyes, but was breathing hard.  I went in the basement and found the box the chicks came in, put some pine shavings in it and laid her in there, figuring she would die.  I put her on the counter upstairs to keep an eye on her and two hours later….she was alert and fine!  So, I brought her outside and she flew away.  Happy story!dscf7449

All-in-all, I am ready for the week to end.  The kids are downstairs now with Andy sanding their Pinewood Derby cars.  I think I am going to curl up in the quilt my “auntie Barb” made me and read a good book.
