Random Things

Shortly after my last post, our new pet went missing. Jason had mowed the lawn and said he thought he saw a frog hop away from the lawn mower. When we didn't see Jeremiah for the next few days, we were worried he might have hopped away with one less leg. We were worried about our little buddy.

Then, after coming home late one evening, I saw something moving in the yard between our house and the neighbor's house. I took a closer look and it was Jeremiah!! He was hopping his way to the bush in front of the neighbor's house. I hope one day he will come back to live in our backyard, but at least now we know he's okay :)

We are making some progress in preparing for our little turkey. The room that will become the nursery is a little closer to being empty. I think we might go buy the furniture today. And I bought some letters for the wall (B-R-Y-S-O-N), so I guess that makes our name selection "official". I need to put some "pictures" of our little guy on here. Maybe that will be my next post.

This morning, I noticed a lady in a car behind me talking on a cellphone. The scary part was that she was using her other hand to "talk" too. I mean, it's one thing to talk on a cell phone... I admit I do it at times. However, if you are going to do that, use your other hand to do something important. Like, I don't know, maybe driving? Or eating a breakfast taco. But the person you are talking to cannot see your hand.

We have a new pet!!

Before you think we are crazy, there are a few things you should know about our new pet.
  1. He stays outside all the time.
  2. We do not have to feed him.
  3. We do not have to clean up after him.
  4. All we really have to do is make sure our other three pets don't eat him.
Luckily, all the dogs have done so far is sniff him then walk away. He's out and about just about every other night, next to the deck or under the rose bushes. Here's a picture of our new addition:


We haven't named him yet. Any ideas? Jeremiah, perhaps?
