Today was a nice day to be outside.. .so nice that Mike built Arianna's swing set giving to us last fall. He said that was his weekend project so I guess it is contagious. Even my mother finished two baby blankets, I will post pictures of those as well in another entry. :) But for me, my project was to take some nature pictures (mostly birds and squirrels), I have not done that since I went back to work and realized how much I love it (again ).
Mike also refilled and bought some new bird feeders. Here we have our first purple finch birds of the season (I can't remember for sure if they are finch, but I remember their name started with purple! )
It always amazes me how flexible this creatures can be and how cute as well. We also try to have enough food for everyone. I love this shot of the squirrel eating a piece of pear.
And I'd never seen this one before... Deborah can you help?
As for my doodling it, I am trying to do my own "Cloth dolls" design, what do you think? The first one is based in a girl that is not skinny, but that loves herself anyhow ;)
I am trying to draw my cat Jack and make him into a stuffed animal and since I love owls so much, I combined both! (Oh, the doll in the corner was based in Kelly Osbourne... )
The last 2 drawings are for my daughter that loves trees that dance and blue's clues!

cute drawings!
I love watching the birds and wildlife in our garden, we haven'thad any squirrels yet but have seen them not far down the lane, red ones though.
Love the cat/owl sketches , are you going to make them up as rag dolls?
Dreamer: That is the idea :) to make rag dolls / stuffed animals for the next birthday of my daughter so I still have some time to come up with stuff :)
i seriously love, i mean LOVE that cat and owl. if you make 2, i'll give them a good home!
Hey, Erika: sorry I called you Arianna in my comments section -- I was rushing. But wouldn't it be something if we kept at it long enough for her to respond with comments? Great doodling. I hope to see some of those dolls. I'd like to try something with felt some week. Always liked the stuff when I was young.
Kablooey: It is funny that you mentioned that. My husband just got me a bunch of felt yarn to try make some animals. That will be one of the future projects :)
Thanks Lis :)
This is a good project! One that I will do myself one week, specifically going to take photos.
I really love the photo of the bird feeder! Fantastic.
