Chick #3 arrived Friday morning; we call it "Midnight". It looks just like Chickie Wickie did sort of grayish black. Technically, it is called a blue silkie. They are all downstairs in the basement, where we will acclimate them to the outside temperature using a brooding light. In about a month we will be able to move them outside to their permanent home.
The chicks are starting to eat the egg yolk mixed with chick feed. We have even been able to feed them out of our hands. Yesterday, we brought them upstairs to wonder around the ottoman. Aren't they just the cutest! Their personalities are starting to emerge, which is fun to watch. Streak being the oldest is definitely the leader of the group. Scooby is a little shy and follows Streak everywhere. Midnight is the baby and craziest! He is just a silly little bird J
Our yard sale on Saturday was a success. We didn't unload all the baby clothes, but I made a small dent in my maternity clothes. (thanks to my bff Jenny, who is pregnant!) We did sell the PS2 for $80 (yea!) and various other items that needed new homes to be appreciated. I plan to take the remaining clothes out to Once Upon A Child on Wednesday. I just love this store; we bought all three kids some cute outfits and found a Baby Bjorn to use for Austin on our upcoming trip to Mammoth Cave.
