bits and ramblings on

Toast is. . . cozy

this little pile of treasures left by Little One was especially cute to me the other day.
. . included in this pile. . is Hazel.. . who is an olde friend to me of many many years and who was recently found after YEARS of being LOST . . or rather. . safely tucked away in camping stuff we haven't touched in forever.. . apparently we aren't big fans of camping with babies..

Hi Hazel.

been practicing chopping my own kindling.

it's one of those things that seems like a basic survival skill..
. . a tiny bit almostchoppedmythumboff dangerous. . but hey. . you can sew those back on right?
i do have to admit that i could NOT chop a log into smaller pieces.... much lacking in upper body strength and for a person with good spacial awareness have surprisingly bad aim!
. . but Sweet Hubby chops a bunch of flats for me so i can have at it when the mood strikes and i have to say. . . it's incredibly FUN!

this little Gal is getting ready. . we think. . to lay her first egg!
she made a special little nest and methinks we shall see a little gift in it sooner then later.
very exciting.
