All quiet on the home front

Well, it's been a week of good and bad. The good news is that (as of this writing) there have been no further accidents (that left marks or required a call from school). Unfortunately, we also have lost our hummies. I went out last night and checked on them and the whole nest (with the exception of the very bottom) was gone. I'm sincerely hoping it wasn't the gardner, but something along the lines of a squirrel might be worse. Whatever the cause, our little family is gone and we're very sad. We still get the visits to the feeder, but no more baby. And I would assume, after this incident, that they are not likely to be back - at least not that low. Our yard is just not a safe place for hummies. :-(
On a brighter note, I would say that Jake definately gets the concept of colors now. He's pretty good with yellow, orange, green, and pink. Will sometimes get blue, white, and purple. Red is tough and, like most men, anything other than that is completely foreign. This may relate to his new tendancy to want to pick his own shirt out in the mornings. For some reason the white polo is "no" despite it not being Labor Day yet. I guess toddlers have their own fashion rules.
