Critters

Maltby treed something today. In a smallish deciduous tree, there is a cute, fuzzy, toothy creature. We initially thought it was a porcupine, but upon further inspection, there were no spines! Our best guess is that it is a woodchuck. I'd never seen one before, and they don't usually climb trees (unless they are trying to preserve their lives), but some quick research online by Ben and a phone call from his dad seem to indicate that this is the case. If you know something we don't, I'd love to know what you think it is!

And this little critter is cute in her own right! And growing like a weed! Yesterday at her 2 month appointment, we got her new stats: 12lbs 12oz (90th percentile), 23 in. (75th percentile), and 40cm head circumference (75th percentile)! She is just growing out of 3 month clothes and into 6 month ones, which is fun, because we had some very generous friends give us lots of hand me downs, so it's like a shopping spree of fun new outfits in her closet! When she grows out of 6 month clothes, we may actually have to go shopping though, because most of them were just through the 6 month size. I just love her little smile!
