IT'S A GIRL!!!

We can hardly wait to meet her!!!!!

Catching up....

It's been awhile since we posted! Here are some pictures of what we've been up to since our last post.

Our cousin Allie came to meet Dixie's pups! (See more pictures here)

We all greatly enjoyed a visit from our friend Brittany!!

Livy and Brittany

Livy is usually the center of attention around our house.

Livy is so happy that it's warm enough for toads to be out!

Having these 2 little girls in our home is so much fun!

Our meat chicks were growing fast...

...but a few days ago something got into the pen and killed 75 of them! Only 12 survived. :(

This is one of our layer chicks

The puppies are also growing!

If we don't watch out, they tear our clothes!

Signs of Spring

We have had three weeks of beautiful warm weather.  The temperatures have been in the 50's to 60's in the afternoons, and though we still have occasional frosts at night, the grass is getting green and the trees are beginning to bloom.

Puppies and Chicks - two more signs of spring

They get along really well at this age.
