Our First Day Back On The Farm!!!

Another amazing day in April!  The girls and I don't like to be cooped up in the house very much, and now that Deanna Rose is back open for the season...we are THERE!!! 

It was a great day, the weather was just perfect once again.  We got there and went straight for the baby goats!  Oh my goodness they are so tiny right now!  Bird loved every minute of it!  She's definitely my little farm girl.  She walks around talking to all of them and telling them how pretty they are!  She took FOREVER to feed all of them!  Goose on the other hand...not a huge fan.  Shes fine as long as they aren't jumping on her or trying to eat her clothes! ;)
After there we headed for the ponies but of course!  Bird would ride them all day long if she could.  She got to ride cowboy, whom she has ridden many times before.  She looks at me and says...."Mom he remembers me...he'll be gentle"!  She's so smart!  Goose and I watched as big Sis trotted through the little course they have.  normally they get 2 laps, but today was just one, they were pretty busy! 
The tractors were next and I was shocked to see that this year, Bird not only reaches the pedals....but she can actually RIDE it!!  She pedalled around the track a few times, then Goose wanted to try.  She reaches the pedals...but can't reach them well enough to pedal just yet.  Next year I bet she will be able too.  Man these girls are just growing way too fast!  I am so blessed to be able to be home with them for the most part now! 
We walked up towards all the little shops and decided to grab an ice cram cone for snack!  As we sat eating our ice cream and looking out over the farm...Bird simply says to me..."Mom...I love this place...and I love you for bringing us here"!  Aweee my heart melted.  I am just glad that something so simple and easy can make her day!
Once we were done with our snack we went and saw the baby chicks, the Tee pee, and the pregnant Miss Olive.  after that we decided it was time to head home.  The girls were tuckered out.  We loaded up and headed home.  It was a great day with just my girls and I. 
A plus to our day....Daddy went and got marshmallows for us to roast in the backyard....which Bird calls "camping"!!  LOVE THESE MOMENTS!!!

Belly Button Be Gone!!!

Goose had her hernia surgery done last week.  I was a complete wreck.  I know it isn't invasive, however it's still your baby going under anesthesia.   We had to be at Children's at 1:30 for check in.  Goose had no idea what was going on.  She was just as happy s can be.  It was just Goose, myself and Daddy, Nana picked Bird up from school and was keeping we busy until we were home.   When they called us back she got all her vitals checked and was a champ.  We changed her into a gown and she got to play while I spoke with the nurse, anesthesiologist, and the surgeon.  When the nurse told me that they would most likely intubate her, tears just rolled down my face.  In my line of work...intubation is never good, it's a way to sustain life.  I know that in this case it's just a way to know for sure they don't stop breathing during the procedure. The Surgeon came by to see us before and let us know what would be happening.  We work...

Fun with Friends!!

Nothin says fun like a little splash park fun with friends!!  Myself and the girls along with Tracy and Dalton made it to the park at about 11:15am and then we were joined by Russ and Austin, Aimee, Matters, Johnna and her girls!!  We were there for about 2 hours and they all had a great time!!!  Goose just loved it!  Walked ALL over!!  Gonna hit the park up again tomorrow with Aunt Tt, Brody, Nana and Little Man!!  Can't wait!!  We love all this outside time!!  

Baby Bird turns 16

I'm still not sure how our first baby girls is 16!  I remember not only her birth story, but I remember loving being pregnant with her so much.  Except the heart burn, I could have done without that!   Beautiful Bird you have become such an awesome young lady.  One that I am blessed to be your Mama.  Your love of life truly shines through in any and all settings.  People are drawn to you for your huge heart and understanding ways.  You make friends easily, and teachers and coaches adore you for the hard worker you are, but mostly because you are a true team mate.   I love how close we are, and how close you are to your sisters.  The moments when we just get to hang out and talk life or not even talk at all and just enjoy each others company are some of my most favorite times.   I love when you get excited about things or when something really makes you laugh, I wish I could bottle that joy up and keep it forever.   We are ...
