Zylie Goes to Florida!

Hey neighbors!

Everyone remember Zylie the bear? She is going on vacation with us to Florida! Zylie will be traveling with my daughter and occasionally dropping in here At the Fence for updates. We are actually leaving Thursday, but I thought we would begin the first post here.

Zylie has her bags almost completely packed, with my daughters help. She has borrowed some clothing from my daughters dolls, so you will see her in some different outfits. Every well traveled bears needs a few outfits for a month long trip! Tomorrow, Zylie and M will finish packing and they will load their bags into the trailer. We will be pulling a cargo trailer for all our stuff! Of course Zylie and M are bringing some books to read, some stories to listen to, and M has started drawing, so I am sure they will spend some of their time traveling, drawing pictures.

Zylie and M will have to share a seat with M's older sister and brother. Hopefully it won't be too crowded. But Zylie "bearly" takes up any room!

Now, here is the great news...we are going to have another giveaway, where the winner may choose either Zylie or Shen. Here is how this will work. We will start the giveaway Wednesday. I will have a small post, and include a Rafflecopter for entry. With each updated post from M and Zylie, there will be one extra way to enter. The giveaway will end the end of February, when a winner will be chosen randomly to receive their choice of either Zylie or Shen. So be sure to check back often to see how the trip is going!

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June.
