Carter's Room!!!!

Carter's room sign made by yours truly.


Diaper pail, dresser/changing table, and shelves... if you look closely you can see the little horse and cow that are suspended from springs so they'll bounce over Carter during his change!


Crib... I really LOVE this crib.


All we need now is a baby!


The cloth diapers! All ready to go.


Farm motif silhouettes...also made by me!


Glider and toy box.

Gardening

Garden and Greenhouse. This year we added 4 new beds!!


Seedlings in the greenhouse. These are basil and peppers.


Peaches!


Apples!

Animals we share our house with:

Our youngest domestic animal, Lady. Haha...what a funny face. She's a nine month old golden retriever.


Our nine year old golden, Daisy...checkin out the scenery.


...and the cat, Alexander. He's seven.

Our Chicken Adventure thus far!

Our chicks at about a week and a half old!

Inside our coop! ...a work in progress, but getting there.


Outside of coop, again, a work in progress.


Chickens doing their thing in their run. They're about 9 weeks old here. We have a total of 25 chickens and roosters...how many of each is yet to be determined, but they are beginning to find their voices!



This, I believe, is the leader of the pack even though he is the smallest! He is a bantam of some sort. The lady we bought the chicks from "threw in" 3 bantams.
