For a first try at animation its great! You still were able to tell a story from it despite length and though the animation is low on frames theres some really good points, I like the little background animation of Astaire and the expressions in the last scene along with the stretch on Eugene as he's picked up.

The only thing is the walk cycle Raygirl mentioned and the dimensions of Eugene's face as when he turned it kind of went off model a little.

Though it inspires me to work at my summer projects this year. This is a good example of how much progress someone can make if they just put their mind to it.

This animation has some really lovely parts that i would love to have seen more of. I don't know how much animation training you have had but to have the patience to stick this through is excellent, and you can really see the skills improving as the animation goes on. There are some really tough parts that even as a trained animator I would be nervous about attempting, such as the perspective shot of the character walking away from the camera into the distance.

My only concern is the walk cycles at the beginning (especially the stork) but walk cycles are a BITCH to animate, especially if the characters aren't human and not constrained by normal preportions.

I love Nancy's reactions, I think they're my favorite part. I'm not sure what the settings of this scene are but some lovely hand painted backgrounds would add a full 200% to the quality of this film Overall it's a cute little scene, it shows the personalities of the characters beautifully, and even through it's short it tells a clear story!
