A different sort of Newborn

A few weeks ago, we went away on vacation. Once we returned, I went about my everyday tasks, which include watering and deadheading my hanging baskets. When I pulled them down from the hook the very first time, I was delighted at what I saw - a Robin's nest!! Since then, the kids and I have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the babies.



Well the other day the little newborns made their arrival!

Look how cute they are! No feathers yet, but that fuzz is just adorable. Unfortunately, one egg didn't make it. Such is life, I guess. Poor Mama.

We are very excited to watch these little birds take to the sky in the the next week or so. Hopefully we'll be there (camera in hand!) to catch the action!
