I think I have everyones submissions so far for the caption contest on the caption page... please check and PM me your entry if it's not on there.

Don't forget to fill out the form with what you've set so we can determine a winner in a few days for the HOW MANY EGGS WERE SET CONTEST.

I'd also like to enter my table for the ingenious chicken design contest...

This is my "chicken chores" table. It is set up in the garage and I have everything I need right there.

Here it is messy, and in use:

I remember those days!!  Is there a friend or neighbor that can spell you so you can take a nap???  At least take a nap when nap time rolls around. Honestly, your sleep is more important than any housework!!!! 

I have one friend but she won't watch my son, only my 4 year old.  Which by the way is her 4th birthday.  But she's sick and grumpy, DS is sick and grumpy and I'm tired and grumpy!  lol  I think I will definitely nap today when DS naps.  I need it desperately.  But until then I'm trying clean.  And I gave each of the kids a small bowl of goldfish, both got 'accidentally' dumped on the floor.  Then I gave DD a cup of juice on the table and she accidentally dumped it all over the place.  But, for the first time ever I made her clean it up.  I think she made more of a mess smearing it around but she did give it her best shot.  My kids are spoiled.  I'm goint to start giving her chores.  4 I think is a good age for chores.  Feed the dog, and put all the clothes in the hamper daily.  That's what I'm thinking.
