Our ever expanding, crazy household....




So, if 4 kids, 3 dogs, and a husband arent enough.... we will be adding three new family members to our household this week. My son Charlie, decided a few weeks back that he wanted to give

4-H a try, and he wanted to raise ducks. We figured the ducks will actually give us eggs, so this would be a good project for him as it would benefit us all. We found a wonderful lady that is going to give my son a trio (2 females and 1 male) of Muscovy ducklings for his project! Well, we got the word yesterday that the babies have hatched and we can get them any time this week! So, we are prepping the ducky nursery, and our enclosure getting ready for the new babies! I think I may actually be more excited than my son is to get these little ones. I have wanted a pet duck since I was about six or seven years old so, this is fun for me as well. I will post some pictures as soon as the little ones get here :)


So on the crafty side of life, I havent been able to do much lately. Gillian (one of my twins) has done nothing but cry for the past three days, so my craft time has been limited. I did manage to get three ATC's done last night which was nice. I like the way they turned out (They are the ones listed above). I posted them on my Flickr account this morning so we will see if anyone wants to swap for them. I have to catch up on some of my swap stuff. I think I only have a couple of small things that I have to make, everything else is just fabric and things like that that need to be sent. I will be doing that this afternoon. Hopefully my little one will chill out soon and I can get some new stuff made up. I have so much that needs to get completed so I can hopefully sell it on my etsy store soon.... *sigh*




Anyway, that is all for now... I will be sharing the new babies later in the week :)
