Here are some action shots of exciting stuff going on here this morning: Foxie making a (modest) nest! You can see her clapping – she does this as she’s going through her routine. Go Foxie!

…with her ever-present troll! 🙂 She’s so cute….
maybe possibly when she’s not lookin’ you could ever so carefully & discreetly slide over to her a small towel or something to add to her nest building objects! of course just kidding – she does what she wants and likes it the way she likes it! one day, I have a feeling, she;ll be gesturing for some cozy blankets!
she foot stomps & claps – Go Foxie!
what a sweetheart!
Life is a process…………
A small step but none the less a step, by snow fall she will have it down.
What great pictures. Go Foxie! Glad to see the troll doll is enjoying the nest too.
Denice, I like your thoughts… by snow fall sounds like a good time line.
Keep iy up Foxie!
Shelly K who would have believed it! Christmas lights?!?!?!? Guess they don’t think there is anything else that’s fun before Christmas! They don’t know what they’re missing!
I love our Foxie! Isn’t it great to see her busy!
I think that’s a post-modern nest. Go Foxie!
Is the paper on the floor nest making directions or is Foxie making a list of perferred materials? She’s in the post modern phase so who knows what she might be wanting!! Do the trolls get nests too??
I’m with you Jeani! Tons of fun to be had even before the holidays – Fall is my favorite time of the year 🙂
She is getting there! I think she will soon surprise us with a nice, big nest! Of course her troll will always be with her in it. She is so beautiful and you are all so lucky to see her and the others progress daily. How I envy you!!!
