Fourth of July Babies.

Let me just begin by saying that the 4th of July weekend was a much needed break. It gave me that patriotic spirit to carry on, carry on, carry on! It also gave me a legitimate excuse to be lazy but that's besides the point.

However, while I was busy being lazy, little did I know on the 3rd of July, Sierra was actually busy being, well, busy.

I woke up the morning before and found this in my gerbil habitat.

Quite frankly, it was kind of gross. I felt bad for the pathetic excuses for baby gerbils and wanted to put them out of their misery. Okay, I'm joking PETA.

What was weird, however, was that I was worried about them as if I had birthed the little pink jelly beans strait from my canal!

Here is a video of my babies:


Don't you just love the music? I couldn't find the Hallelujah chorus so Jon Schmidt playing Sacred Ground was the next choice. I had to put music over it in the first place because of my atrocious voice in the video.

Well they are growing bigger and look a little less like cancer/burn victims and more like the cute gerbils they are supposed to be.
