Yard work

We decided to work on the yard today since we had the day off together and Aunt Robin was willing to come by and watch Cora. The weather was actually pretty nice and we didn't sweat nearly as much as I thought we would. I even mowed a lawn for the first time ever! We are very happy with the way everything turned out but we still have some work we want to do. We are going to remove a few more of the shrubs and add more flowers but we will have to do that later.

Another before pic, taken today

Cora came out to visit and actually enjoyed some time outside in the milder weather

Me, starting to plant the flowers!

After pic, it was starting to get a little dark out

Can't wait to plant more!

Matt noticed a little bird nest in our tree! I tried to get a pic of the bird but she flew away. Looks like she was hiding something! Three cute little eggs! I felt so bad that I scared her away. She perched herself on the roof of a house across the street. She was making all kinds of noise and kept her eye on us. I know she must of been worried about her little eggs. I was afraid she might not come back, but she did! What a good momma! I can't wait for the babies to hatch!!!

Mimi and Fluffy came by later in the evening and Cora got her first bath in the kitchen sink.

She wanted to stand for most of her bath

Mimi drying Cora off!
