"Hey Mom, do we have one of those baby monitor things so you can hear when a baby cries?"
"I don't think we do"
"We should find one. Do you think it would reach to the barn for when Sienna has the baby?"
(Laughing hysterically, I couldn't help the comment) " Yah, but Brenden, it isn't going to cry when its born."
Following a good smack on my shoulder " No duh, but you might be able to hear all the neighing."
Such a cute boy!
He also wrote me a PERSUASIVE essay as to why he should be aloud to buy chicks to do for the fair. What? Who does that? Three quarters of a page. Who could say no to that! He found some he wanted to buy up in Riverside. We have put so much money into the steer out back, that I couldn't stomach putting money into anything else that can't hold a conversation with me. I told him he had to pay for them all on his own. He had ten dollars and the chicks were $4.00 each. He wanted three. He called the guy himself and asked if he would take 3 for $10. The guy said "yes" and now we have 4.5 horses, 2 cows, 2 dogs, 1 cat, 3 Bantam Welsumer chicks and 4 kids. Why can't I say NO?

SUCKER!! Brendon and Nate would be a perfect pair......and you and I both have the problem of NO :) Good thing we love them!
If the kid is going to go to that much time, effort and money, what can you say but yes:). I hope that they still seem fun when it time to take them to the fair and you just might get some eggs out of it to boot:).
You guys can borrow our monitors! I'll bring them on Sunday....
