project hatch: 5 weeks, 1 day (AH)

so yesterday our friends Cassie and Chris came a took 4 of our babies home with them! it was a lovely evening and from the update i've gotten they are doing well in their new home. we plan to go visit them later this week (and secretly i can't wait to see them again!). for those of you who read both Cassie's and my blog you will be on chicken overload... we are both very proud chicken mamas! -- it makes you want some, doesn't it!?-- so now we are down to 6 and are pretty sure at least 3 of the ones left are roosters who shall meet their doom as soon as i hear that first crow (or as soon as i can get them into Zach "the butcher" Dohner's hands)

and finally i have a little video of Cameron "playing" with the chicks this evening. oh man he loves to chase them, try to (unsuccessfully) pick them up, scream at them and feed them whatever is laying on the ground... this is the life of a boy w/ chickens! p.s. he's saying "here go" to the chicks when he's trying to feed them... he says that phrase all the time.... super cute!

oh my gosh!! so cute!! Nick loves to chase birds, which is a problem in the parking lot. I am so jealous that your kids get so much experience outside! We're going to Oregon this summer, but next summer is free... Rob is talking about visiting Philly again.
