Chicks 2013

They arrived, all nineteen of them, at the post office in a little tiny box that went "cheep, cheep".  The number nineteen is due to the fact that they threw in a free exotic for us.  That would be Andrew, the yellow guy below who is almost certainly a rooster.  He's pretty cute with feathers all over his feet.  We'll see what he turns out to be!

The girls are having a good time, although they're not spending nearly as much time with them as they did two years ago when we did this.  That being said, we did do some of schoolwork in the basement the first few days because they couldn't stand to be away from them.

Lee has taken on her role of Protector of Chicks, and acts as a proud mom.

This involves lots of scolding of Clara for being too rough, which explains the expression on Clara's face below.  "What, me?  Have I done something wrong?"
