Farm Field Trip





So yesterday we headed off to the farm. Rylands preschool took a field trip to Superstition Farm. My sister and I volunteered to go and be extra hands for Janey and her 8 preschoolers(all under the age of 3 , i think). My intentions were complete chaos. But to my surprise the kids were wonderful. They got to pet goats, cows, bunnies, horses, and hold baby chickens. They were so interactive with the kids , it was wonderful. They got to feed goats and horses and go on a hayride. The hayride took them around the farm showing them how they feed the cows and to see all 1500 of the cows. We had a blast!!!! Oh and at the end of the tour they got to go to the MILK BAR, they have 12 flavors to flavor you milk. The smell on the hayride completely ruined my experience at the milk bar , but everyone else loved it. I never knew there could be so many different flavors. We are definitely going back with the whole family, cousins and all. The best part was the end result!!!(last pic)

Doctors Appt.

So yesterday i had a doctor appt. to check how the baby is doing. We found out that we are having a baby GIRL!!!! i am so excited. Well he was still not positive if it is a girl for sure, but last appt and this appt he was pretty sure it is a GIRL. he said," i do not see anything that tells me it could be a boy, but the umbilical cord is right between her legs." He also referred to HER and SHE the rest of the appt. So i am glad to say it is a girl and next month we will see if that changes. But everything else is going great and we couldn't ask for anything more. We have been telling Ryland that he is going to have a baby sister, his response is , NO i have baby brother, like baby Talon!(my sister Cassi's baby). So it will be interesting to see what happens when it comes out a baby girl. He will hopefully be excited either way. he loves to see baby Talon and asks about him everyday. So he should be just as excited when his baby sister comes, until he realizes she is here to stay with us and not going home with someone else!!!

Tuesday at GG's


Well every Tuesday, any stay at home moms (cousins) and their kids go to our Grandmas house. It is the kids great grandma and we call her GG. Well lately it has been only my sister and i going because all the other kids have had RSV or fevering and we do not want to get all the kids sick, especially my sister Cassi's new baby, Talon. So we headed over their yesterday to play and have lunch. I snapped a couple of pictures of the kids running and spinning and jumping. i also had my nephew Brexon yesterday with me. We have so much fun over there and i know it means the world to my grandma and grandpa to see their great grandchildren every week. Although it may be pretty crazy at times , they probably wish we would not stay as long as we do, but it keeps them busy for a couple of hours instead of starring at each other, which some of the cousins think that is all they do! Well we can not wait for all the new babies to come and can't wait for Joleen to be a stay at home mom and come and play with us. By the way Talon was born Jan. 7 and there are 5 more new babies to come this year!!! That will make GG and Gpa have somewhere around 17 or so GREAT GRAND CHILDREN!!!
