School Performances and Career Day

We haven't been checking our baby birds the way we did our first set of baby birds.
Yesterday we went to go see how they were doing for the first time.
They're hungry chirps in the early morning hours are urgent and loud.

Two of the five stared at me and then darted out of the nest as fast as they could -- for their first time flying! I feel bad I scared them. Our other birds were used to us peeking in quietly, but these guys weren't. They clumsily landed on the ground and then tried to flap their wings. They hopped off into the bushes. I sure hope they are good! At least now the other little ones aren't getting crushed.

Macy's class had a special visitor yesterday for career day...
Dr. Ben!
The kids were fascinated with all his tools. He even brought a real horse leg in to pass around.
They cringed at the huge needles and learned that horses need a lot of the same care that people do.
 Then Ben got to stay with us for Macey's kindergarten singing performance. 
 I thought this was cute - Macey made a list for Mackayla of all the things they were going to do together:
 Here's our cute carpool girls together. Notice there are no kids behind them - this is after school, but we are the dawdlers extraordinaire and it takes us a minute to make it home:)


Cody had his class play!!
 He did so awesome on his part and song.
He was "the Troll," who was a bully that ate people.

The play is called Character Matters, and was a combination of fairy tale characters getting interviewed and trying to solve their problems.


We're proud of him for doing a great job!
