It took a while, but we got another mouse.  I think there is still at least one more.  Time will soon tell.

This is mouse number 4.  So far if would seem that I have a whole trove of mice sleeping in my walls.  I might be drawing mice for a looonnngggg time.

We let go mouse number 3 today.  How many more do my wall hold? o_O

I’ve caught another mouse!  This is the second one so far.  Well, that’s not totally true.  I did catch another one before this little guy/girl, but it escaped the bucket I put it in.  Jumped right out it did!  This current one was released in to the wild right out from the trap… which it didn’t want to leave.  It took a bit, but eventually it jumped out and ran in to the bushes on to it’s new mousy life.  Yay!

I wonder how many more mice I have.  I wonder if I’ll have to draw a mouse picture for each one. o_O

We seem to have mice in our house as of late.  My mother told us she saw one run by our stairs a while ago.  I thought she was crazy to be honest and for a long time we didn’t see anything.  But, sure enough this past week a mouse made it’s presents known to us.  The next day I went to Canadian Tire (it’s a Canadian hardware store) to get some no kill traps.  It took a few tries, but we were able to catch mouse in it.  The only problem is… we seem to have more then one.  Now I have to catch his little friends/family.  The one I caught was super adorable, but he couldn’t live in my house.  I let him go in a field/walking path away from my house.  I hope I can catch the rest of them so they can be reunited. ^_^

I did this doodle for this post, but it reminded me that a long time ago I wanted to do some city mouse & country mouse drawings.  It theme would be large insertions with two lady mice.  Because when your a mouse, everything is large.  Oh baby!

I can’t remember if post this here so I’m doing it now.  I didn’t have my regular draw pad at the time, but this graph paper did the job just fine.  I don’t think there’s anything one this page that I fell in love with, but I do fancy the girl in the top middle with the flower in her hair. ^_^
