Cousins and Bluebirds!

My bluebirds are getting so big! They have started turning blue and are taking up the nest. Today was my last day to be able to check the box since they might fledge (get out of the nest) to early. I took a picture of them in the nest for the last time!
I know this one isn't very good, but I just wanted to show you guys how big they have gotten!

Cousins! 

These pictures are of my cousins Drew (the girl) and Dax (the boy). They are my Dad's sister's kids, and are the sweetest things you could ask for. Dax smiles all the time and Drew might take some coaxing, but she'll smile! (She laughs a lot though!) :) I took some pictures for you guys! I got some clearer ones of Drew than Dax though, since Dax was facing the sun. Both of them have BEAUTIFUL blue eyes though. Hope you like these!

He's a smiler. :)

I don't even have to tell him. He is the sweetest thing and smiles ALL the time! :)

Smile!

I like this picture of Drew :) I know it might look weird, but I just think it's a cool picture! 

Smiles!

Baby Birds Hatch! (and swimming) :)

Oh my goodness! YAY! My baby bluebirds hatched! My brother's are supposed to hatch (at the earliest) today, but sadly, they haven't yet. But they will! The funny thing is, I went down to see the babies for the first time (since I wasn't at my Grandparents house on the day they hatched, which was Thursday) and as soon as I got down to the fence, the male bluebird started DIVE-BOMBING me. I had seen him do this to other animals, but this had never happened to me or anyone in my family before. (But it scared me so much! He didn't hit me. They just try to scare you when they dive-bomb you, and don't plan to hit you.) So I walked away for a little while and came back later, only staying for a few seconds, because the male started moving to closer branches and was prepared to dive-bomb me. I don't blame him though. I would do that too! I think they become more protective as the babies get bigger, since every other time I checked he hadn't done anything. I took this precious picture of the new 3 day old babies, (since it was raining yesterday I took it today) and I hope you like it! (My mom thinks they are ugly. My Nana and I, we call ourselves "the Bluebird Freaks", think they look like old guys. But we think they are adorable too! :) What do you think?)

Swimming in my Grandmom's Pool!

Getting ready...

He calls this move "The Sumo Wrestler" :)



I love my brother.  (Kaden, you will always be the best one!)-
Love, 
Your Awesome Sister! :)
