Backporch Bird Nest

We noticed Sunday that we have a bird nest inside one of our folding chairs.  We are not sure what kind of bird, but it is small (about 5-6 inches tall) and looks kinda like a finch.  It is brownish grey and we have only seen one bird so far.  Yesterday afternoon I was checking on it and noticed that there was an egg inside.  This morning I found 2 eggs inside!  Sheba (our dog) just ignores the chair when she is outside, so we are not concerned with her bothering it.  The boys have been told to not mess with the chair or the nest and so far they are not interested in it at all (which is a good thing!). 
The bird nest is nestled down into the chair with the opening on the side. 
Can't wait to see baby birds hatching!!
 

Yesterday, there was one egg when I took the picture.
