This past weekend our two nieces Heather and Darcy traveled from Indiana with their kids, two almost 8 month old girls and two boys of of which one was 3 in August and the other turns 3 in December. It was great to see them but wow did I forget how busy a house is with little ones it it! Our kids really enjoyed playing with them and were a big help with them. Ted took the boys out in the morning and let them ride the tractors around. Cole's dad is a farmer but he just drives red tractors so Ted let him drive the green tractor! Hopefully he told his daddy about that! I had decided to have the boys get some eggs while they were here, just one problem, my girls weren't laying just yet. I was expecting it any day though. So I went out to "plant" a few eggs and there was the cutest brown egg ever! My chickens surprised me and laid their first egg! Photos will be coming soon for those of you wanting to see tiny pullet eggs! The boys also had fun jumping on the trampoline. We had a nice day on Saturday so it was nice to for them to be outside some. The girls headed to town in the afternoon to do some shopping and left the all the boys at home. We came home to one sound asleep on the couch and one sound asleep by the front door! It was quite funny. Guess that is what happens when guy's are left in charge.
