Up With the Chickens

Our day started at 5:15 a.m. this morning...really early. We recently took Addison's bottle away and her sleep schedule is totally thrown off. I am anxious to return to our 8 a.m. wake-up call.

But we made the most of it and headed to Big Daddy's "chicken ranch" to see the new baby chickadees. They are four days old and beginning to get their white feathers.

Its really hot and dark inside the houses so the baby chicks can stay nice and toasty. And of course, its really stinky. So stinky that we had to immediately return home, wash our clothes and take a bath.

But Addi Girl didn't seem to mind. She was more preplexed with the many thousands and thousands of baby chicks chirping all around her.

She wanted so badly to scoop them up, but they would scurry away when her squeaky shoes got close.

Addison may turn out to be a farm girl after all:)
