Jack's First Time Climbing a Tree

 In my never ending quest to keep Jack happy and stimulated, one day I let him climb in our cherry tree.  It is small and out in the yard by itself, so there was no way he could get into another tree and get away from us.  The only way he could have gotten away (not that he would want to) is to get on the ground, but he was terrified of being on the ground, so it wasn't an issue.  We only did this once because I'm too paranoid about him getting attacked by other squirrels or a hawk or the cats.


He got upset if we'd get too far away from him, so hubby stood next to the tree so I could step back to get pictures.

He wanted to jump on me so bad.

 He was very insecure back then.

 Chilling on hubby's shoulder.  So cute!

 Good practice for his balance.

 He eventually got close to the ground, so we called it quits.

There are a couple of videos from that day that are awesome, but I don't have time to upload them right now.  Maybe later.

Pregnant Does

 My Amethyst is SO adorable!! These pictures were taken on the 14th of January.  I just haven't had time to post them until now.  I'm posting these so that around mid January we can compare pictures to show you how much bigger they have gotten as they get closer to their due dates. Does due in February are... Coral.  This picture does not do her justice.  She is HUGE! She was being skittish because I was using my phone camera with no zoom instead of the real camera so I didn't get any other pictures of her, so here is an old one from the beginning of January. She is enormous.  I have my fingers crossed that she has twins this time.  I don't remember her being this big with Amethyst.  She's only ever had single births as far as we know, so I'm really hoping for twins.  Having singles can be hereditary and I'm hoping Amethyst doesn't take after her mom on that.  Single births are not ideal because you spend the same amount of money to feed...

Cats & Dove Update

 OrangeJello and Emerald eating breakfast together. The cats and the rock dove are the hardest critters to get pictures of, but I haven't posted about them in a while so I thought I would try to get some for you.  The cats are easiest during breakfast because they are still.  They are always either twirling around my legs (which is when I call them my rainbow of kitties because they are all different, pretty colors) or running around at mach speed (well not lazy OrangeJello, but it's true for the other three).  Pharaoh muscles his way in to the food bowl...  .... but Shadow always patiently waits her turn. The dove, who still doesn't have a name, gets free range on the screened in porch.  The poop is annoying to deal with, but it can be cleaned up and it's worth it watching her fly around and stretch her wings.  She is super happy outside of her cage.  She now coexists with the squirrel, but we don't leave them alone unsupervised.  They still...

New car!!!

Gambar
After ten years I finally had to say goodbye to my fifteen year old Rodeo!  I'd been driving this car since my early twenties.  In fact it was only the third car I'd ever had.  My first car was an 80 something Chevy Celebrity which I only had for a year or so and my second car was an old, beat up crappy Pontiac Grand Am that I had for around four years.  I kept it after I got the Rodeo and hubby drove it for a while before he traded it in for the HHR he has now. So I'd been driving the Rodeo for ten years.  It never bothered me how outdated it was.  Heck it had a cassette player that didn't even work the entire time I owned it!!  The main thing that bothered me was the blower motor was going out so even though the heat/air worked it didn't blow air unless I kicked the motor under the dash on the passenger side which didn't always work, so that meant lots of trips to work shivering.  We got a new blower motor, but didn't have time to replace it....
