Our little birder
The weather has been cold here this week with little flurries and a big storm expected. I have been putting seed out on the buttress of the house as well as the window sills so that the birds get close, entertaining us and the cats. Yesterday I was pointing out a cottontail to Anna and she went and pointed out a house finch up in the tree to me! Our little birder is seeing the birds! This morning she had walked into the dining room and was quiet for a few minutes. What was she up to? Looking out the window at the birds and squirrels! So much fun to share this with her.
With the weather being cold and not getting outside, Anna and I built a fort in the living room. It is a sheet taped to the mantle supported by some chairs. She thinks it is fun to dive under it and play chase around it. We have also been going upstairs to chase each other in circles. She finds it very funny with lots of giggles and squeals when I surprise her. I got her good one time and she jumped and fell on her bottom laughing the whole time. I try to be noisy when I chase her so she knows I am coming, but I got her that time!
