Recovering and Odds n Ends

We are still trying to recover from the Lufkin weekend. It was so cold! Sherry and I hovered by the heater. The kids stayed with my mom until Saturday afternoon and then Jody's mom watched them until we got in Sunday evening. It was so good to see them for about 5 minutes until they were back to fighting. Just kidding - they're good kids!

A few weeks back, Savanna was studying the letter H in school and on Friday she could wear her favorite hat to school. When Jody was out on the road one time, he brought back a coon skin cap and a skunk skin cap for the kids, so Savanna decided to wear the coon cap. Of course Shane couldn't go without wearing the skunk. I had to get a few shots of them wearing them. We were getting ready for school so I apologize for the underwear shots of Shane (but yeah for underwear - no more pull ups!)

The other pics are of the triplets I typed about earlier. The are so cute and HUNGRY! They chase their moma everywhere. It's as if you can just hear them saying, "more milk moma" over and over as they chase her down. Poor moma goat.

And finally, the last picture is of Shane with his warmer weather hair cut saying, "cheez".

Triplets

Well, Saturday night the other moma goat or Shane's goat had her babies. This time it was three! These were much smaller than Savanna's twins of course and we have been worried about the smallest one, but we think and hope that they will all make it. Shane and Savanna are so excited. Shane keeps saying that he has three baby goats. So, we have gone from a herd of two to a herd of seven. I keep forgetting to take my camera to get some shots of them.

Also, it's time for another Lufkin weekend which I don't always look forward to because it takes so much time and energy and I come back so tired. And now on top of that, it is going to be cold and rainy. Wow, am I being negative or what.

But on a more positive note, I have booked our travel plans for the summer. Drum roll..... We are going to Disneyland! I am getting so excited. We are going with my parents, my sisters and their families. Everyone is planning their own family things to do except on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday we are for sure all going to Disneyland together. So because we might not ever plan another California trip again, we have decided to go early and stay late to do some other fun things. I have us flying into San Diego to go to the zoo and then flying out of Los Angeles so we can hopefully tour Universal Studios, see the Hollywood walk of fame and "Rodeo Drive, baby" (what movie?) We will be going at the end of June and I can't wait. I think I am more excited about it than the kids.

Bachelor Irony

Ok, is it just me or did Jason do to Molly what DeAnna did to him. "I didn't choose you, but now I wish I would have." - gag. In a way, I wish Molly would have gotten past him and found someone else and told him to hit the road jack. This whole roller coaster, back and forth, wishy washy Bachelor has made me sick to my stomach. I would like to say that I won't ever watch another episode of the Bachelor or Bachelorette because of this, but I am sure I will get sucked right back into it next time. I look forward to watching the next episode of "After The Rose" tonight because I feel he will probably be back to break it off with Molly and ask Jillian for another chance. Ha Ha.

Guilt

Can I just say that Jody and I definately get the award for the worst parents. Savanna lost one of her top teeth yesterday and was so excited to have the tooth fairy come last night, but guess what parents forgot about her arrival. I am so ashamed and feel so guilty and Jody feels it as well. Savanna was such a trooper this morning and said that she must have been really busy last night. She was excited because now she could take her tooth to school and show all of her friends and still be able to bring it back tonight and have her take it. She is such a precious girl and we love her and her attitude so much!! She will definately be getting an apology letter and bonus from the tooth fairy tonight.

Baby Goats

They are finally here!

We purchased two mama goats a few weeks back and when we bought them, they looked as though they could have had their babies on the way home in the trailer. But yesterday was the day for one mama goat. She had twins. I was so excited about twins when Jody called to tell me at work, but he said that it was common for them to have twins. Needless to say, when we got home, that is the first place we went - to see the baby goats. And they are sooooo cute!! Of course, I was ready to leave pretty quick after I took pictures so I could get out of my work clothes and start supper, but the kids would have none of that. They wanted to stay. Shane even said he wanted to spend the night with them. Mimi was there and she said she would bring them home later. She wanted to stay and get the babies to find the milk on their mother. About 30 minutes later they came in, Shane's shirt was wet with something and he was saying that the mama goat had tee teed on his shirt. But Mimi quickly corrected him and said that it was goat's milk on his shirt. He argued and argued that it was tee tee until he was so worked up and upset that we finally agreed that it was goat tee tee. Leave it to Shane to WANT goat tee tee on his shirt.

Switch Made

Well, I have made the switch to private and I am so glad because now I can talk about people that I couldn't talk about before. Ha ha - just kidding. Even though I won't have as many readers now, I am glad that I have done it. The main reason I am blogging anyway is so that I can look back over the years. I have read about other bloggers looking into printing out their blog entries and making a book and I definately want to do that in the future. I guess I should get to researching myself unless someone knows how to do it and can let me know.

Why am I paranoid....

I have only 4 sign ups. So sad. I can't wait to tell Jody that I am going private for four readers, lol. Oh well, I still plan to go private next week. Till then, have a great weekend.
