Card and his chickens

Card LOVES his chickens - we actually have had to stop calling them "his" chickens because he and Katie would fight over whose chickens they really were!






On the look-out for any roosters - the roosters and Card do not get along. For some reason the roosters dont care for Card chasing down their chickens.......

Here Card is holding Daisy - she and Rose have recently gone broody (they are the same breed of chicken). Cant wait for baby chicks!





Here Card has Rosilita. She will actually sit wherever Card places her until he comes back to get her. For example - if he has to come in to go potty he sits her on the porch (stick in the mud mommy put an end to bringing her with him, even though she sat so nicely in the bathtub) and she sits there until he comes and gets her.












Thank you Lord for this precious little boy - for his daddy's sake please give us more of them!

Hi, this is Robert Bolling, a fellow Webbie and the little brother of Will's high school friend Betsy. Seeing your daughter in the background in her diaper made me think to ask if you've ever thought of using cloth diapers. My wife and I use a brand called Fuzzi Bunz, and we've been very happy with them. You have a high up-front cost, but you save money over the long run (especially if you plan to have several more babies), have fewer diaper rashes, and they're more environmentally friendly. Just a suggestion. Let us know if you have any questions.

I love these shots of Card...and all his antics! He is one of the most entertaining little men I've ever met...and a real sweetie!

What a nurturer he is. I love how he 'cuddles' his chickens!

We actually have cloth diapers here (some Fuzzi Bunz and some others). Bella has outgrown all the Fuzzi Bunz though :(
I usually have her in a cloth diaper at home (not brave enough to go out in them) but my grandmother (who babysits on Monday's) will not change the cloth ones!
I have read a book called Infant Potty Training though (no diapers at all!) and we are thinking we might go that route this time..... Ask Betsy about babies in China - I bet alot of them were potty trained from birth. The book says (and now that I am trying to potty train Bella I am beginning to believe it!) that we actually TRAIN our babies to go in their diaper. They actually get used to the wetness and think that is normal... Bella refuses to go in the potty, but let me put a diaper on her and she gets this relieved look, as she relieves herself.....
All that to say - thank you for your comment and offers! :)
