Sterling and Sawyer

You are sooo cute . Sawyer is your best bud. He love kissing your cute little baby feet, you can't help but smile. When you smile my heart sings!



We found a pretty dragonfly at the park today.I can't wait util your old enough to chase them...

The 12 spotted skimmer is a large showy dragonfly in the skimmer family; it looks even larger when flittering around the wetland because of the numerous spots placed along the length of the wing (6 spots on each side with black at the tip, a white spot nearest the tip is the Eight-spotted Skimmer). ...In mid-summer (July & August), they are very active and territorial often covering the whole wetland or lake shore on patrol and then returning back to the same area. This species is found statewide in ponds, lakes and wetlands with abundant emergent vegetation and oftentimes some open water. Like all adult dragonflies they eat smaller flying insects such as mosquitoes and flies, but will also take down damselflies and moths.
