They were great entertainment for Caleb during the day.
Until yesterday.
It came down the chimney. I screamed.
I sealed up the chimney as best I could.
I waited two hours for animal control to come while listening to squirrel chatter.
He came.
He wasn't very good at catching squirrels.
It jumped over his head.
Peed on my carpet.
Ran behind my couch.
Knocked over my pictures.
Scaled my blinds.
And was finally caught.
Then another one fell out of the chimney.
Ran around my couch.
Was caught much quicker.
Did not want to let go of my adorable leopard blanket.
Had to have each little claw peeled off the blanket.
Squirrel hair everywhere.
There was a lot of screaming.
I have thoroughly sprayed every corner in my living room with Lysol.
Oh the adventures we've had in Iowa.
(Most of the screaming was done by Collin who was discovered locked in my bedroom upstairs with the laundry basket covering the door, hiding under my comforter with Caleb in his arms. What a man.)

HAHAHA!!! That's quite a story! Something that you'll never forget. I'm glad nobody was bitten.
I'm dying over this. Too funny. And I have to say that it's now time to cut Caleb's hair. Sorry, but it's true.
So funny! I was over at Amy's when your mom stopped by and told us what was happening at your house, so I was curious to see how it ended! How crazy! At least it wasn't a raccoon or a badger or something! I hope you are enjoying a much calmer day!
That would freak me out! I would have been screaming too! We had a mouse a couple of months ago. Bear in mind that I have two stupid cats who should have caught it. I screamed the whole time Josh and I tried to catch it. Eventually it was caught, but I was completely creeped out for the rest of the day.
Wow! Nothing like a little excitement! It sounds like quite an adventure.
Good thing Colin took care of Caleb!! I'd be just like him. Yikes! I'm glad they caught them.
Just another day in Megan's life, right? Your life just cracks me up! Good thing you have lots of fun people to call to entertain you! This just cracks me up every time I hear it!
How disgusting! I would have crawled under the comforter like your boys too. Ew! I can't even think of the nasty hair and germs!!
I couldn't stop laughing! I am so sorry Meg. After that day, rest assured that we will all be hoping for many squirrel free days! :0)
I can't believe how big Caleb is in the pictures!
take care!
lala
I laughed out loud through this whole post. Glad it was you and not me. Actually, I wish it didn't have to be you either.
