Zach brought home a bird from work one day. So now we officially have a pet! Lincoln couldn't speak, he was almost in tears. He stood at his cage for hours talking to "little chopper". Eventually Lincoln got brave and stuck his finger in the cage. Chopper nipped at him, and now Lincoln isn't scared to try and touch the birds. Oh yeah, that was plural. After 2 weeks Lincoln wanted Chopper to have a friend, so He used his birthday money that he had been saving, and we all went to Pet-Co to pick out Sunshine aka Sunny. He is not as trained as Chopper, so you wont see any pictures of him sitting on our fingers or shoulders. But together they chirp and fly around the house sometimes when Daddy lets them out and is home to catch them. They are pretty easy to take care of, so I don't complain and my kids can have some pets.Saturday, January 19, 2008

Ohhhh, you're such a nice mom!!! And a way nice wife to not flip your lid when Zach brought home the first bird. Pets are a taboo subject for us, and I'm not caving. Props to you, MOM!
These children are just beautiful.
