Are we crazy? The answer is definitely yes. We've added a new addition to our family. A bird. Hannah has been loving birds lately and every time she sees one in the sky or walking on the ground she tries to catch it and yells "bird, tweet tweet." So, Wesley, being the sweet daddy that he is, sought out to get his little girl a bird.
Our first visit to the pet store was not successful. We found out that the cheapest bird cages are about $80. Yeah, right! So a few weekends ago when we were in Houston Wesley's uncle generously offered a bird cage that would easily fit 50 birds. Thanks! (said with much sarcasm). So with no more excuses, we headed to the pet store tonight...and viola...
There is a bird in my living room! Don't worry, it's not staying here for long. It was dark when we got home, so we set it up inside so Hannah could "play" with it. It's moving outside before we go to bed tonight, where it will permanently live. Although I'm not thrilled about our new pet, Hannah really loves it, and that makes me happy to have it.
My only concern is what is Wesley is going to do when Ethan shows an interest in snakes. Oh, and my other concern is that our dog is currently going CRAZY thinking this is something she can eat. Fun times ahead!

But her adorable face in that first picture of her pretty much makes it all worth it! But, definitely, fun and interesting times ahead - good luck! ;-) Before long, we'll just come to y'alls house instead of the zoo!
OK. I have nothing to say after reading Kristin's post except, "I second that. All of it.". You are such a sweet mom to go along with it :)
What a great Mommy! I love reading your blog...Hannah is so adorable! Congratulations on your upcoming arrival!
Ha! Yes I think Xing and Jersey would team up and try to have Hannah's sweet little bird for lunch! But I agree with Kristin, Hannah's face in that first picture is PRICELESS!
Per our e-mails yesterday, I think you should give birds instead... :)
