Some new pictures

Our sweet little girl...




















Had they been closer in age one would think they are twins! Funny when I asked Derick who all these babies were, he said "They are the same mommy..." I had to point out that he was the baby in the middle picture :)

Chicken Camp Pictures




























It sounds like they are having fun at Chicken Camp. Here are a few pictures I have received. I love that she even made him an "official" Tshirt! He comes home tomorrow...can't wait to see him. I am hoping we don't have issues getting retrained after being a little spoiled at Nama's house :) I can't wait to hear some of his stories. My mom said he even took a nap one day and also slept til 915am yesterday...!!

Chicken Camp

Derick is gearing up for his first 'vacation' to my mom's house. They are calling it Chicken Camp...as she has something like 14 chickens and Derick LOVES them. While we were up visiting over Memorial Day weekend, I think he spent half the time in the chicken coop...either looking for eggs, feeding them, or holding them. The chickens are extrememly tolerant to let a 3 yr old pick them up time and time again! She has even created a special invite including the agenda for each day...quite cute. I tried to copy and past it here but for whatever reason can't seem to make it work. My favorite is that the final day they will "celebrate a successful end of Chicken Camp by doing the Chicken Dance." So needless to say I have been trying to give him a head start by teaching him the moves. He seemed to solidify more when I could show him some You Tube videos of what it looks like. I'll have to try and post a little video later.

I am going to miss him as it will definitely be more quiet around here. But I know he is so excited about it and will have fun. He hasn't been away from us this long since our Hawaii trip a couple years ago. It just happened to work out that my mom was going to be in town leaving Wednesday and my sister was going to my mom's house this weekend...so worked out perfect that he could have transportation both directions. And I do have some goals to get organized, do some cleaning, maybe update my photography blog. Hopefully Zoe will cooperate and do some nice long naps for me during the day.
