I think I'm getting the hang of nature photography - this is "Alex's bird". He comes to visit us every morning - he's the only bird that we've seen eating from the new bird feeder we made.
The aftermath of our first night out in a loooooong time. We went to a Volunteer Reception for the March of Dimes. Both kids stayed up waiting for us to get home :)

One of Alex's NICU nurses made this for us. On January 19, 2005 Alex was 2 months old - and *still* in the hospital.
(The quarter is there just for comparision)

I took this through the back window. Alex's bird feeders (see January 12) are attracting all kinds of cool birds. This one is a wood pecker :)
