11 Gals and a….

May 24

Here’s our little flock all healthy and happy at the moment. But I’m beginning to have a thought that one of our Road Island Reds might in fact be an impostor! I’m speaking of this little one right here. The one kinda stretching up. Notice the short stubby tail? Well, initially I thought this was just the youngest of the flock because it’s...

32 Weeks

May 23

Another big milestone! We made it to 32 weeks!! Yay! I had my regular checkup with the Doc today. It wasn’t as regular once I got there though. I was shown into a different room with different monitors and a nice cushy recliner. From here on out they will do this each visit. They monitor each of the girls heartbeats and a third measures if...

Gearing Up

May 21

For summer and babies all at once. Gearing quite slowly though, just so you know! I always think that quick movements are completely beyond me till I trip over a small shoe with an arm full of laundry. Ha! However, it’s not at all comfy to move that fast, so I think I’ll avoid it for a bit if possible!! So what does gearing up for summer look like HERE?...

They’re Back!

May 18

So I had a little mini-vacation this week. The kids got to stay with my parents and have their own little vacation as well. It was really nice for them since they don’t get to see “Punkin’” and Grandpa as much. Especially recently since most of my trips to town have been quick business related stuff and sometimes I don’t even take...

Chikas

May 13

We’ve managed to keep the chicks alive and kickin’ for over a week now. Every small victory is worth celebrating! They are getting big fast, and feathering out nicely. At least for the time being I know who the youngest chick is. One of the Road Island Reds has no tail feathers yet, and all the others do! She seems to hold her own quite well even...

30 weeks

May 09

While 30 weeks isn’t an official pregnancy milestone (for that you have to make it to 32) it still feels like one to me! FINALLY I have reached the 30′s!! My babies will be born sometime in the next 8 weeks!! That is exciting and scary all at the same time! I’ve been reading some “twin” blogs and the general consensus seems to be...

Here a chick, There a chick

May 03

Yesterday I went to town alone. However I came back from town with 12 passengers!! We are now the owners of a little flock of chicks, or “chickies” as Qade calls them. They are tiny little fluff-balls and very cute! I’m pretty sure our 3 monkeys would sit and watch them all day terrorizing the poor things by shaking up their little box home as...
