They've Hatched!

They have decided to make their debut tonight! We had to be quick. Will try and get better pictures tomorrow. How cute are they?!?!?? Their eyes are still closed. Awww...shuckie darn!

IT'S OFFICIAL

I have officially been offered a permanent position at my current job. After June 22, 2009, my probationary period will be up and I will not have to worry about renewing TERMS, contracts or other stuff. As we found out earlier this year, nothing is ever permanent, but in a year, it will be a tougher for them to get rid of me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not to say this didn't come with it's own hiccup which will be a dock in pay; however, after a call to my local peeps and a call to the regional peeps, it was quickly determined to be a typo...NOTHING LIKE DROPPING 4 STEPS BACKWARDS.

Secondly, the birdies have hatched. We don't know how many are in the nest. We have only been able to see one head with the aid of a mirror. I will get pictures as soon as they are big enough to poke their tiny little heads over the top of the nest....

My Wonderful Hubby

Sometimes people do sweet things...

Today...it was my hubby...he gave me my perfect veg out day!!!

He treated me to a special breakfast (Bo-Berry Biscuit, Seasoned French Fries, and Mc Donald's sweet tea) in bed, we watched the final 3 episodes of Angel and watched National Treasure 2, he bought me a newspaper to clip coupons, he got me some flowers (mini poms), and he remembered I needed wrapping paper for a bridal shower gift I had to attend today and got it for me.......

Nothing New

I am bad...I haven't blogged in awhile. However, nothing interesting has been happening (ie...no new hatchlings...no word on my job situation...etc).

Things have been mundane.

Hopefully things will pick up soon. As soon as the hatchlings arrive, I will get pics out...so keep checking sis. Wezul's daughter will be here on Friday for two weeks, and I hope I will hear about my position this week.

Otherwise, Wezul and I are just busy living day to day...thankfully.

Best I Could Get

Typical...but hey...I think the birdies might be trying to keep the eggs warm. Though in this heat, it won't take much. Trying to get this pic for D. was interesting. I had to do the belly crawl...sneak up the side of the door and peer out the window...and shoot really fast. All the skills I learned in GRAW. Who would have thunk I could put them to use is real life?!? Just kidding.

For the out of towners not interested in our feathered friends...we are having an interesting time with a wildfire that was sparked in Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge on June 1st. It is located near the east coast in NC and the prevailing winds have brought the smoke all the way to Raleigh. Very interesting. The smoke is likely to be at its worst tomorrow morning, and if I know my hubby, he will probably try and get a pic or two. He already tried to prod me to take some today...but it is just "hazy" at our house.

All the family in Iowa...try to keep dry!
