More Baby Birthday Photos More Baby Birthday Photos

Yes, I finally managed to get those photos uploaded to the computer. It was quite a task (you know, actually taking the memory card out of the camera and placing it into the little slot at the side of my computer) — I’m exhausted now…so you can forgive my delay, right?

Get it off!” REALLY not liking the party... [Read more...]

Early this week, after lunch was eaten on the patio, and the children had left some crumbs and half-eaten sandwiches behind, a young raccoon appeared out of the rain to clean up. He returned later in the day and I noticed that he was not putting any weight on one foot. It had obviously sustained a serious injury. I began searching the internet to try to find some sort of local wildlife rescuers.... [Read more...]
