Mr. Inventor built this trailer for a friend, who was then not able to take it. He’s trying to sell it now.07-IMG_0737

These chicks were hatched a few days after the funeral. So cute!

This silly cat slept like this for an hour or so—back end twisted one way and front end twisted the other way.

A friend spent a week with us, and one evening the boys made a bunch of crowns. He had fun being a king, while Mr. Sweetie had fun giving him rabbit ears!

One day, the boys found a couple of newly-hatched chicks. I sent them to get hay for a bed for them. Instead, they came back in with eight new turkeys! I sent them back out. Mr. Diligence came back with another baby turkey! They finally did get the hay and made a home for all the babies. A few days later, Mr. Intellectual got these two pictures. I love how the turkeys woke up and were so curious in the second picture.

Gayle’s aunt cut out new dresses for all three of us while she was here, and got the ones for Esther and I mostly finished. The next week, I was able to get them done and make the one for Little Miss. It’s fun to have new, matching dresses!

    Such nice dresses! My little girl and I enjoy matching each other too. Is your oldest that much taller than you? Maybe she is standing on a step.

      Yes, she is that much taller. We were standing on the same level.
