Betty Birds

Macie's new favorite thing is helping Uncle Kenley with his BIRDS! She first was curious about them about a year ago. Kenley had a little Merlin similar to the one in the pictures. Its name was Betty. Macie would get by her, but really didn't want to hold her or touch her. Uncle Kenley then left for 6 months and while he was gone he had to get rid of Betty. Everytime he and Macie would talk on the phone while he was gone she would always ask him about Betty.

Now Uncle Kenley has been home for a few months and he went out and caught a new "Betty Bird", I think he chose this kind just for Macie. She loves this "Betty Bird". I'm not sure that we've really decided on a name for it yet, but Macie calls it Betty, so thats what we go with.

As you can see Macie now loves Betty. The first pictures were taken in December. She then decided earlier this month that it was Trey's turn to meet Betty. So in the second group of pictures, Uncle Kenley showed the bird to Trey and then Macie got to. In some he is okay with the idea and in others not so much.

I know that Macie makes her Uncle Kenley a proud Uncle. Thanks Kenley for being so patient with her and letting her explore a new thing. Macie and Trey love you very much.
