Day 19

[mom'sfolly]

It's morning of day nineteen. There is no rocking, no peeping, no nothing. I know its early, but dang, its hard to wait. Waiting........

I know! In about 45 minutes my Day 21 starts. I have three of the nine pipped and more rocking, but they wont come out! I usually have at least a couple hatched by this stage of the game.

Peeps! Peeps, I heard peeps! Yipee!!! Yahoo!!! I'm so glad to know something is alive in the incubator. Go, babies, go.

I have to go read the instructions on my Christmas camera so I know how to work it when they make it out of the shell.

PEEPS!!!!

I hope they hatch tonight, my kids would be so tickeled to have chicks in the morning, it would be like Christmas all over again.

I'm giddy as a school girl!
