Chicks and Giggles

Regan and Chipmunk

Carli and Gravel

Mollie and Pecker

       I should have posted about this a couple weeks ago because they are getting so big so fast, but we got more chickens! The girls have been literally begging for more chicks since we lost our chickens in the fall (its a long story, but the Munch's dog had a little chicken "fiesta" in our backyard and ate all our chickens) Chad thought it would be fun so he surprised them after school one day with 8 new chicks! They are really, really cute!! Too bad they have to grow :)
      The girls have spent an enormous amount of time naming these little puff balls. It seems like everyday they have new ones. It is so funny to hear what they've come up with. Here's what we have so far:
         1. Gravel (gray one)
         2. Garth (other gray one...it was Thor)
         3. Fuzzball (yellow one)
         4. Rhode Island FRED (red one)
         5. Moonlight (black one)
         6. Pepper (other black one)
         7. Chipmunk (the one with the stripe down its back)
         8. Pecker (yes, you read that right...apparently it "pecks" the other chicks. I'm trying to convince them to go back to its original name of Goldilocks because its the gold one)
      My favorite part about having these chicks is how much the girls love them. Every morning I wake up to the sound of giggles as they "check" on their pets. It is seriously the cutest sound in the whole world! Long story short...that is my world right now.....chicks and giggles!!
