Christmas is a week away! Oh MY!

Whew is Christmas really only a week away?  Time has flown by!  We can't wait to see our family this Christmas.  Even if only for a few days!  Our Christmas shopping is done.  Just waiting for a few gifts to (hopefully) arrive in the mail before Christmas! 

The kids are getting super excited too about Santa's arrival.  Lilly and I even wrote a letter to Santa!


She was so excited to be able to write to Santa.  She even asked for Littlest Pet Shops.  And with out missing a beat, she said "momma what about Ben?"  And she even asked for something for Ben from Santa.  It was too cute!

She even helped Auntie make peanut butter balls!


Her and I will be making a couple kinds of treats to bring with us to share with everyone!

Our baby dove is now 17days old!  He is flying, eating seed and perching with the adults.  Soon he will be able to go to a new home.  Our doves in the past two days have also laid two more eggs!  How exciting!


Our baby gerbils are about a month old now. Eyes are opened, they are moving around (and boy are they fast and have NO fear what so ever!), they eat seed, but still eat from momma too and they are running in the gerbil wheel for exercise!  Here the week after Christmas we will be able to seperate them from momma and put them in separate cages (males and females) until we find them new homes.


We are doing well.  The kids and I are excited to be coming up to see our family for the holidays!
