"Robin-Watch", Day 13!

And then there were three!
 
Just a quick update on the baby robins...
 
Hopefully the fourth egg will still hatch ~
 
I didn't bring the step-ladder outside this evening, just used a little garden step-stool,
 
and I am so vertically-challenged that I didn't get the best photo,
 
 but you can see the third baby!
 
I won't keep you ~ I am SO behind...
 
Unusually behind, even for me, answering your sweet comments!
 
Please know how much I truly appreciate each one ~ ♥
 
ONE WEEK  from tonight until Graduation ~ (Eeek!)
 
 (And right after we have cake, oldest daughter Mandy and Jonathan

 leave for a week in Ireland ) ~
 
Maybe then I will settle down and be a better blogger! :^)

One more thing.
 
Heaven, is this not??
 
I don't know whose Heaven it is, but I want it.
 
I said this morning that it was ALL I wanted, then I kept adding little things,
 
a stack of books and a bed and potty inside...
 
and a place to paint...
 
and was called on it...for the additions...;^)
 
Still. So close.
 
I HAD the possibility for almost this exact set-up," house-before-last"...
 
this looks like the porch and everything...
 
Alas, the cute little house really couldn't stretch to accommodate more than moi...
 
(and kitties...)
 
so I had to admit we needed a bigger house.
 
Now I am ready to go in the opposite direction again!
 
Sigh.
 
I will try to find out who to give credit (it is from Pinterest)
 
for this Little Piece of Heaven and post it later.
 
 
Have a wonderful Friday!
 
TGIF!
 
Love,

  1. I'm catching up too, and I'm also like you in that I worry about these birds and their babies, probably more than they do!! I'm glad your baby robins are arriving safely, and I LOVE that porch!

  9. I'd be out there feeding bits of worms to them. Just as well I don't have them in my back yard!

  11. I love watching the little birds hatch until they try their wings. We have lots of nests here in the roses. Love that beautiful swing. I could spend some serious time there with a book!
    Happy weekend.

  15. Hello Dear Friend!
    Oh, I have missed you, I've not been visiting as often as I'd like...
    and you are busy indeed!!
    Look at those precious birdies! Fantastic photos..just amazing...
    Today I saw a little squirrel gathering tiny twigs high in the tree...wonder if she's making her nest. Wouldn't it be cute to get some pictures of those wee critters too? :)
    That porch looks...aahhhhh! And I am loving all of the new photos of darling you and your family on the sidebar.
    Ok, on to catch up with the newest post!
    Sending love your way,
