Watch your fields farmers.

I love babies.  Babies of all kinds can come to my house and I’ll love them and squeeze them and give them nicknames like Weeds or Major.  I’ll even love them when they aren’t babies anymore.  I know, that’s how bad it is.  I love baby animals almost as much.  It’s so hard for me to drive to town and not sneak a baby cow over the fence and into the back seat of the car and take it home.  Those knobby knees and big ears just beg to come live with me.  Can’t you just see it, a little Tommy boy ‘esque only cuter and a little illegal since I’m pretty sure theft is frowned upon.  They won’t miss one or two right?

Around Easter the baby chicks come in at the cowboy store.  Heaven help me.  Is there anything cuter than a grey fuzzy ping pong ball with legs? Say hi to Pidge.  She asked to live with me and wanted to bring 14 friends. Our 2 big hens are getting really lonely, I can see it in their eyes.

If I could I would carry her mini self in my purse like a wanna be celebrity circa 2008.  Start a mini chicken fad with designer chick carriers, wouldn’t that be cool?  I could switch them out whenever I have a wardrobe change and I could totally make my own carrier… hmm.

So as you probably guessed I have a pile of laundry, a pile of Easter sewing, and a pile of a million other things waiting on me.  Cute fuzzy procrastination at it’s best my friends.

Hope your projects are coming along better than mine!

Have a great almost Thursday.

  2. I have 16 of these things in my garage right now. They are at that stage where they are just about too big for the pen but I am not totaly comforatble with putting them out with the hens yet. Man they are making a mess! But they are still too cute to get too mad at. ;)

  4. Ack!! She is so fuzzy and adorable! You start the chick in a carrier fad, write a tutorial on how to make your own carrier and I will follow!

  5. I love babies too. We went to the local farm supply store and my kids loved looking at all the chicks and ducks. The funny part was they didn't like the bigger baby ducks. So I think a full size hen would not be welcomed by my kids. :) Good luck with the sewing.

  7. We have a hen that loves to stand on hubbys arm, when our daughter called for a ride home from a friends house, hubby had Lola on his arm so he took her for a ride with him.
    They stopped at the video rental store and hubby walked in w Lola and everyone was just so amazed at how tame and fun she was.
    I said i would have liked to see their expressions as he walked in w a chicken on his arm and set her on the counter top.
    Not everyday do you see a chicken in the city.

    Just thought you'd enjoy that lil story!
