Raising babies & raising chickens

Our three new family members
Well, we've raised a little of this and that through the years. We've had babies, dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, a raccoon, pigs, fish and birds. But, we've never raised chickens. Well, a friend of ours thought it was about time we did. So he put out three in our yard (a rooster & two hens). Wish us luck. I don't know anything about raising chickens...lol
We are working on raising this little girl
 the right way...on "real" food.
Brookelyn had her first ear of corn. She loved it.
However,she mostly gummed it since
 she only has 1 and 1/2 teeth...lol
Brookelyn's first teeth
Last weekend sweet little Bailey came for a visit.
We had a great time with her.
She is getting so big and so smart.
She can carry on a conversation with you now.
She loves talking and never meets a stranger.
She's a sweetheart.
Little Bean was chewing on a Gerber puff and it turned just right
to look like she had rabbit teeth...lol Every time we put
one in her mouth she would turn and let it stick out.
We all got a good laugh. She loved the attention.
(Don't worry Lil Bean you will get teeth soon).
Yesterday, Amberly & Devon (past foster) came over to visit.
I haven't seen devon in a couple of months and he is just growing
like a little weed. They are just precious to us.
*Amberly*
*Devon*
Brookelyn just did not know what to think about Devon.
She kept taking his passy...lol


She would spit hers out ,to take his.
He learned quickly if he would pop hers back in
then she wouldn't get his...lol
*Devon*
*Brookelyn*
My Lil Man (Jacob)
rub-a-dub-dub Meme's punkins in the tub:)
Just being a boy...(kool-aid mouth and bare feet)
Her nose was stained orange from baby food...lol
Well, that's it for this post.
Have a blessed Day!

Look Who's Walking Now

Thank You Lord

Do you ever just wake up with a song on your heart and you just can't help but start singing it? Well, that was me today and this is the song. I am just so thankful for all God has done for me.


Thank You Lord
For making the sun to shine,
Putting the stars in the sky,
For the flowers that bloom,
The ocean so blue,
Thank You Lord!
For every sparrow that sings
and makes sweet melody,
For the river that flows,
The rain and the snow,
Thank You Lord!

(chorus)
I just want to thank you Lord.
I just want to thank you Lord,
For everything,
You've done for me,
Thank you Lord!
I just want to thank you Lord,
I just want to thank you Lord,
For making me whole,
Saving my soul,
Thank you Lord!

For my whole family,
For the joy my children bring,
For the shoes on our feet,
Plenty to eat,
Thank you Lord!
For the church where I worship and pray,
For the freedom I have today,
For your Spirit I feel,
Your presence so real,
Thank you Lord!
(Repeat chorus)

For being a friend so dear,
Giving my sad heart cheer,
For holding my hand ,
When I could not stand,
Thank you Lord!
For giving your life for me,
On that cross at Calvary,
For taking my place,
Mercy and grace,
Thank you Lord
(Repeat chorus)

Trinton and Amberly

So excited to have Trinton & Amberly (my past fosters) over to spend the day.
I see Trinton pretty often, but it's been a while since I've seen little Amberly.
They are growing up so fast. They are just precious to me.
Fostering has for sure changed my life.

Our Sweet Baby- Jelly Bean

Sweet Lil Jelly Bean (our foster baby) is 7 months old now!!!!
She now weighs 12 lbs & 2 ozs
and is doing soooooooo good.
I love this face.
She is such a sweet and happy baby.
