He's Here!

Noah Robert arrived this afternoon, the newest cousin for Joel and Steven. At 7 lb. 14 oz. and 21 inches, he's off to a good start. Guess he didn't make entry into the world easy, as he was facing the wrong way. We're delighted that mom and baby are doing well and the big sisters are estatic.

Guinea Hen Visit

"Mom, come quickly..." I follow the sound of Joel's voice and soon see what appears to be 20-30 wild turkeys pecking at bugs in the yard. After a few pictures, we ventured outside and realized they are very tame. Figuring they had gotten loose from some farm or the back of some truck we decide to see if we can round them up. After calling a few neighbors, we learn they belong to Matthew from the next street and they are guinea hens. They have been raising them to have the ticks in their yard eaten. Hopefully they've eaten any we had left.
