Here is the mama sitting on the nest/basket. She is the one one the left. One of the babies is sitting next to her and the other two sitting on the branch are the babies too. It is fun to see their colors change. The one cream color one is changing alot now. It's little cheeks are turning orange. I think it will be a male but it is alittle soon to tell for sure.
Here is Carlee checking out the new quilt I found at the thrift store on wed. I think she approves of the purchase. I started to scold myself for buying another quilt cuz I didn't even know what I was going to do with it. However, I have an idea to use it as a cover for the hammock out in the yard this spring. That is one of my goals this spring.....to actually have a place to take a nap in the nice spring breeze. Don't you think I will dream some nice dreams on top of this one? I do.

I thought I would show off my little surprise from this morning. I got to see one of my new batch while it was hatching. I couldn't believe it....I looked in and thought one of the eggs looked cracked.....then it registered....It is cracked.....I ran and got the camera and got to see this little guy arrive. There was already one that had hatched. That is the head in the middle. You can just barely see the new baby's little head under the shell.

I was really cute to see it move around with the shell stuck to the top of it's head. I don't think he thought it was very funny though.

Unfortunatly one didn't make it in the other cage. It was on the bottom of the cage tonight along with one of the eggs. So in the other cage I have two hatched one to go. In the cage shown above I think I have four babies and five eggs left. Jeepers. I am going to have a pet store before long. I hope you are having a good evening. I think I am off to bed. One more visit to the chiropractor and my arm still going numb and now I have a nagging pain in my shoulder blade area. I just know I didn't have this pain before I went to the doctor. Now it is worse than any numbness ever was. I hope I won't feel so discouraged in the morning. Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to say hello. Lisa

Here are a few more pics from Lake Farmpark Quilt show this year. I thought this one was very nice. I can't believe she didn't win anything for this one. Once again, not sure of the name. I know I am a bad blogger. I think it might be in a later picture.

She did so many different quilting designs. Just beautiful.

Anchors away.

I wonder if there are any pirates on that ghost ship?

Just lovely. Now I should get out the little quilt top I got at the thrift store wed and put it in my handi quilter and see what I can come up with.

By the way, I have received alot of questions about the baby birdies. Out of the ten or eleven eggs she laid I had four babies. They are doing great. I am having a hard time getting a good picture of any of them. They don't sit still..... But both pairs have layed more eggs. 5 in one nest/cage. 9 in the other. As of Sat. night after work I had 1 baby in one cage and 3 in the other. Oh my.....But I am having fun watching them. Have a good day. Lisa
