Hi all!  A little late (it's been a hectic week!) but our new
baby daughter (our 3rd) made her way into the world last Friday
(08-05-94) at 02:30pm. Ashley Victoria weighing in at a whopping:
10 lbs 11 oz !  Mother and daughter doing fine, although mum sits
VERY carefully these days....  8-)
 
Tail wagging, I noticed Farrah doing this a few weeks ago and like
others have observed it was while she was playing hide 'n seek with
Dakota in the Dryer tube. Farrah was waiting at one end for Dakota
to peek out and (maybe the anticipation had her excited? ) her tail
was wagging a mile-a-minute! It was the first time I had noticed any
of them doing it.  The only other "tail behavior" that I've observed,
and I know you've all seen it too, is when their tails bush out. Most
of the times due to agitation (after a bath in our case) or if they're
frightened.
 
Now if I can stop Weasie from trying to steal the baby's pacifier! She
(Weasie) has a thing for pacifiers and bottle nipples, always has. She
started out by stealing the pacifiers/bottles that my older daughters
have for their dolls. I still crack up when I see her running across the
floor with a pacifier in her mouth, all she needs is a bonnet! I know
she shouldn't have them because if she chews the rubber part she could
end up with intestinal blockage but as you all know, sometimes it's near
impossible to stop a determined ferret!  8-)  So now she makes a beeline
for the baby's cradle if someone opens the door to the bedroom door and
she darts past them. Straight for the cradle in search of the pacifier!
Twice she almost made it!
 
Well, enough of my rambling for now....
