Babies everywhere!

Springtime means new life, right?

Over the weekend, we saw so much proof of that, right in our own yard.

I didn't get a chance to capture pictures of each, but if I can, I will, as we watch these babies grow.

I was inside when Steve and the girls ran into the house super-excited about their find.

Baby birds! 

they found a cozy spot in the girls' play structure

Underneath their plastic playhouse that's on the ground, I found a mama mouse and her babies. SO FREAKING CUTE. 

I had a feeling to look underneath for some reason, lifted it up and in a cute little nest was a mama and maybe 4 babies. ADORABLE. 

The girls have checked on them once or twice, and I keep reminding them to LEAVE THEM ALONE or they'll move. 

Then, when we were riding the 4 wheeler over to Farmer Matt's house/farm, we saw a fawn frolicking in our tall grass in front of our house. 

It's not always sunshine and teddy bears though, over at Ruple Farms.

I also found this.

IN MY BASEMENT.

AS IN, 

IN MY HOUSE.

WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS THING. 
It's so fucking big, that when I got close, it turned, looked up at me and opened its mouth. 

FUCKING HUGE

Turns out, it's a Limax Maximus - which literally means "biggest slug". 

These fuckers can be 4in - 8in as adults. 

EIGHT FUCKING INCHES, PEOPLE. 

I scooped it up and put it outside.

And now I want to burn my house down.
