Bug loving mama: Two years ago...

12 December 2008

Two years ago...

...I was immensely pregnant. I had taken my only final exam the day before. My mom and brother were coming to town in anticipation of The Birth. We figured they would be here for a while, killing time and watching me for any indication of an emerging baby.

Two years ago today J and I went to SLC to pick up my mom and brother, then ran a bunch of errands while in the big city. We returned to Logan around 6pm, made dinner, played with our snake, I made my birth necklace and we went to bed around 11:30pm.

A couple hours later I was in labor.

Tomorrow Miss Doodle turns two years old. Man, what a ride it has been.

Accipiter sp. - Had a gray back, was stalking feeder birds in our neighbor's back yard! Could be a Cooper's or Sharp-shinned Hawk.

Close-encounter Accipiter out our back door: Cooper's Hawk. This one looked like a juvenile. It had different coloration from the first Accipiter I saw.
