How To Entertain The Underwoods...

We are evidently an easily entertained group. All we need is a new chicken coop and a few new chickens! Here, one had escaped and we were watching to make sure it would go back in before being Anna's, Brownie's or Domino's snack. Anna is expecting puppies in just a little under two weeks. William is definitely an excited expectant puppy owner--counting the days until they get here.

This is a horrible quality picture, but I think you can see what I want you to see. This is another bit of our boys' (and evidently mine, right?) current entertainment. They have an aquarium set up in their bedroom where they are keeping grasshoppers to feed to the chickens. They spend a few minutes each day catching grasshoppers to add to the collection. It's fun to see them shed their exoskeletons.
Cody decided to get a "chicken's eye" view of the new chicken digs. These are Black Japanese chickens (rooster, cockerels, pullets, and chicks) that John Wesley bought to resell. He got a fairly good price on them at the stockyards and is hoping to recoup his money plus more and invest in some more animals.
This week promises to be much more "normal" (whatever that means). We only have one day of appointments--on Wednesday in Cincinnati. Jared and MaKenzie have Occupation Therapy evaluations. The therapists there are finishing up a home program for us to work on with them.
