Unexpected Visitors

When Cody got home last night, he found these two frogs leaning up against our front door!! It is a good thing I wasn't the one to find them - if I would have opened up the front door they for sure would've come jumping in! And I most likely would have wet my pants. But anyway, they were just sitting there waiting for Cody to get back from work. A smaller one and a big, fat one. Cody borrowed a net and caught them, and we put them in a box to save them for the morning so we could show Ava. There is a pond that runs all through our apartment complex... it's basically our backyard here. Every night you can here the bull frogs croaking. At first I didn't know what it was, because it's such a low, loud, noise. I thought maybe it was an annoying pump of some sort. But, no, it's the frogs! They are loud! And for some reason two of them decided they wanted to come to my house!!

We took Ava out to see them this morning, and she thought it was so cool. This was her first time seeing frogs in real life - so it was a learning experience. The fatty frog just sat in the box all lazy, but the smaller one was jumping all around trying to get out! It made her laugh :)

She even got brave and poked the fat one a little...

And then got braver...

She actually liked holding him!

We let them go at the pond on the other side of the parking lot, so there are now two frogs less at our backyard pond. Just doing our part to reduce the night-time noise ;) Bye frogs!
