Leaf and Feather Farm....and the Monkey 9/12

ON 9/12 we went to the Leaf and Feather Farm in Papago Farms behind Maricopa. It's a great nursery complete with all kinds of plants that thrive in Arizona and birds that sing and talk to you......and it has a monkey. Don't know why, but I just feel so bad for the monkey. No eternal mate to call his own. He's stuck in a cage all day. He rocks himself to sleep with his blanket(sign of a skitzo frantic monkey) and he is not afraid of you. Below Malin is feeding "Jack" a Fruit loop. If you can remember, he's the same breed as the annoying Monkey on Night at the Museum. He was pretty entertaining. It was so funny to see him stick his humanlike fingers throught the cage and grab the food. The KIDS LOVED HIM. We went with Esther and Jesse and they bought some great Orange trees for their backyard. We plan to do so after we get our winterd grass planted for the season......hopefully in 2 weeks. Our back yard looks like a mudhole at the moment. :)
Baby Malin is jsut too cute. He was loving being swaddled in his towel after bathtime.
