tulle & chalk

Can you handle that cuteness? Last week you asked about the girls’ dresses (see pic below).

FireCracker’s dress is c/o Pippy Lou Boutique and Little One’s is a Matilda Jane dress from a couple years ago. Some of FireCracker’s favorite dresses are two I bought in China last year. She loves the frilling, ruffly, twirly kind. So many of you have asked about them over the last year – asking me where you can buy them. I’ve never seen any place local or online to purchase similar ones until recently when I got an email from Pippy Lou Boutique. For those of you that were looking for lace tutu dresses (and other super cute girl clothes), you should check it out.

Yes, she is dancing with the eggs. The girl is full of joy for life.

And just to keep things not quite so cute…here’s a chicken picture from last night. The boys were watching YouTube videos on teaching your chickens tricks. Not sure this is an actual trick, but it was pretty funny. Our chicken “playing dead” as the boys say. Don’t worry, the chicken was not hurt.

Kids crack me up. Life is so much more entertaining with them around. For those really wondering about that chicken…basically you gently and firmly hold her, softly lay her on her back and have her watch you draw a line with chalk on the ground. She just stayed and stared at the line.

Happy Monday!
