Candi and Eden visiting at last

My big sis and her baby girl, Eden. Such cuteness.
Eden: "Very curious.."

There Candi and I are. I think we both look alittle reddish. No worries though, I'm sure its the camera. Man, I hate photos of myself!

Hogle Zoo

This is at one of the exhibits! They were soo enthralled! I think Candi (the far one in the white shirt) thought there was a good resemblance to herself in the monkey cage). Just kidding- You're beautiful Candi!
There is Ben and my Dad holding down the fort with the kids and supervising strollers.
Dad, Candi, Ben..and kids.
We were amazed at how much those baby alligators had grown.. Their parents must be proud!

Millions of peaches.. Peaches for me..

Four buckets and a tupperware full. Yummy.
And this is the circus version of our peaches (my color is alittle off- obviously). And the next shot is the clown..

"I didn't do it"

"I wasn't gonna eat it Mommy, promise. I was just borrowing it."

This is is not even 2/3 of the peaches from our AMAZING tree. Its true. :) And btw- I know what everyone is getting for Christmas this year. Bwaa ha ha

The APPLe of my eyes

Syd got ahold of an apple that I had picked from one of our trees. She is adorable.

Look at that concentration. Man! What form.

Little teethies and pudgy fingers. To die for!

This is my favorite1. The rolls, the lips.. Heaven in a toddler...apple Alone. . . Sigh.

I miss Grampa and Gramma

So cute, yet so sad when she doesn't get her way. She needs her pappa and mamma.

Breaking News: A new species?

CENTERVILLE Breaking News: A new species is discovered.

What is being called the Braden is seen in his natural habitat. The discoverer has caged the animal when he began to bear his teeth, as shown in this photo, menacingly.
The Spencer sits contently with only a small warning signal.
The female, which is called Sydney sits in her cage. At this age only a few teeth are in, but she tries to bare them. And it is frightening.


The animals appear to be sitting on an egg-like ball.. is possible the male in this species guards the egg and serves as incubator? Or a form of play?
The Braden, with its stringly legs and skinny arms has no problem dominating the ball.
It must be more effective to lay on the ball rather than simply sit. Some individual animals have less balance than others, such as the Spencer who is stockier and shorter in length than the Braden.
The Spencer looks on in what looks like boredom as the Braden hunts non-dangerous bugs.

They seem to be territorial, two males face off, this species throws soft objects at each other not especially to hurt one another, but as a tool to annoy until the one breaks down to tell its mother.
The Sydney attempts to escape over the top of the cage.
She tastes the cage to test the sturdiness of the materials.

She is found trying to fit her body through the bars, when only her legs fit. It is a wonder that she doesn't get stuck.
The female, Sydney escapes. It is concluded that the female species is more intelligent than the male .
