Bunny Bite

I've been trying to think of something to post about for my second monthly post.  I know most of you who check my blog have already heard about this, but Calvin got bitten by a bunny at Easter time.   Blossom had just been brought home to stay.  She was being cute and running around the living room.  Calvin was having some tummy time.  She jumped over his back a couple of times.  Then she paused at Calvin's hand.  At first I thought she was just smelling him, but then he started crying.  I picked him up and Mark noticed blood on me.  We washed his finger off, put a bandage on it, and then I nursed him to make him feel better.  Poor little thing.  It was difficult to keep a bandage on his tiny thumb because he kept putting it in his mouth.  It split open a couple of times.  Now it is all healed and he has four scars on his little thumb.  Next time we will have to be more careful around baby animals. 

The injury.  The bite went through his thumb nail.

He was pretty brave.

Yard Work

The Lindsays have been blessed with good weather lately, and we have been trying to take advantage of it.  We were able to do some cleaning up of our yard during General Conference weekend.  The front yard is cleared of leaves and garbage.  Most of the doggy poop is picked up on the side yard.  All the dead, dried out weeds are gone.  Finally, the fire pit is cleaned of cigarettes and is usable again.  Now to attack the leaves in the backyard and take down the old, broken trampoline.  We are looking forward to making our backyard a fun place to be. 
Calvin was very helpful by taking a nap.

Look at that hottie!!

Bianca helped too.

Enjoying the fire.
