Brody Meets Some Baby Chicks!

On Monday, April 9th, Larry and Bonnie Edwards invited us to their farm where they had hatched around 30 baby chicks for Easter. They wanted to let Brody run around with them and to get some pictures. When we pulled up their two dogs came to greet us. Brody was so excited to play with those dogs. He didn't even know what was yet to come! Larry and Bonnie came out to greet us and showed us to where they were keeping the chicks. Brody had already seen some baby chicks at Tractor Supply and was so excited when he realized what was in the styrofoam box! Mr. Larry took the box outside and dumped the chicks out. Brody wasn't scared at all. He went right up to them and tried to pick one up!

He got one!

Mr. Larry tried to show Brody how to correctly hold a chick. 

We picked one up for him and put it in his hand. 

He clung on to the baby chick's leg. 

The chick tried to get away and we had to make Brody

let go of his leg! 

He abandoned the chicks when the dog came around! 

He tried to give her kisses!

This boy loves his dogs!

Making the "duck face" to the chickens. 

Signing "chicken." 

Like Father, like son!

I love these next pictures with him laughing!

Mr. Larry took us to see his calf and horses. 

Brody wasn't too happy being on the back of the horse. 

I think he was looking at the calf and 

signing "cow" in this picture.

Next, we checked out his hog.

(who was going to be killed the next day for sausage)

He got his kisses!

Brody took the tractor for a spin before we went home.
