Christmas and Birds.

First, I haven’t posted about my birds lately 🙂 There were TONS yesterday. I got a few pictures but really there were tons. I think it was them all starving after hiding out during all the rain. It was fun.

Is this a male house finch or purple finch? Either way he was prettier than all the little brown birds.

This little dude is a tufted titmouse. The first one I’ve seen on my feeder in a while

Random little brown bird. Sparrow? Finch? Does it matter with all the little brown birds? The bigger ones kept flying away when I got close but this one seemed interested in the big black thing coming at him from the other side of the glass.

And now Layla. She thinks it’s fun now to write her name backwards like mirrored…Lets just hope I dont see redrum written anywhere in the house…

The focus on this one isn’t too hot but I love her anyway 🙂 I was trying to take pics of the christmas ornaments and she kept making faces to get me to snap one of her

Ok, now the ornaments. Each year we get new ones that means something special to us. This is one that Layla helped me pick for Thomo now that he has his big Lightening McQueen 🙂

And this is the one that T got for me. The best part is that Steph has one too!
Hers is the red one though.

And this one is Layla’s handprint snowman ornament. Not her special one this year but fun to make! Melissa told me about it. You can also do it in black and make penguins. Super cute!

That’s the nice one. She made another with a messy hand that she will decorate lol 🙂

Check out this video to see how to make it if you cant figure it out on your own 😉

If you search “thecheapmoms” on youtube there is also a spicy applesauce ornament and a playdough ornament. 🙂
