A frog!
This is a big deal for me. Growing up in West Texas, which is practically the desert, I haven't seen a lot of frogs. Since we've been here I've seen toads, but not froggy frogs. I'm pretty sure I squealed like a little girl.
Moe found the frog and wanted to play, but we wanted to catch it and put it back outside to eat mosquitoes. The frog didn't want any part of any of this.
This was his hippity-hoppity path before we trapped him on the wall in a cardboard box:
Bathroom to hall
hall to office, onto Alan's backpack
backpack to the side of my desk
desk to side of the fishtank
fishtank to my magnet board
board to chrome trash can
trash can to arm of Alan's chairchair to under Alan's desk
under desk to on top of little TV (which way needs to be dusted)
TV to wall
wall to door frame
door frame to across the hall on the wall
We slid a piece of paper between the wall and the box to trap him in, then took him to a particularly mosquitoey corner of the yard and set him free. He has a free buffet for life there.
Be fruitfull and multiply froggie!

That is such a cute frog! We don't see many of those around these parts.
Did I tell you that we had a snake in the house two weeks ago? It was scary!!! At least your frog is now a friendly guest in the yard - we let the snake die a slow painful death in a tuper-ware bowl!!
What an adventure! I hope your frog eats lots and lots of bugs for you:) Great post!
You should have made him an indoor frog, since you have mosquitos inside too. He's cute (Glad to see that my picture made it on your blog).
Jenny, what did you do with the snake? Is it still in the Tupperware? How did you know that it was dead for sure? How big was it?
Hey...I think that is a tree frog...we have them here too...it looks just like the one that lives behind our shutter on our house.
That looks to be precisely a White Lipped Green Tree Frog, I used to own one, they get mighty big :)
