Ok so it was actually me that hasn't been here. I don't know where I was really. Nothing much has been going on, well I guess that is not entirely true. We found out we are going to have another baby... I guess that is big news. I am due July 11, 2009 might as well be a lifetime from now. Pregnancy seems to last FOREVER! (said like the Sandlot, that is a great movie) But we of course are hoping for a boy. A girl would be welcome as well and just as loved. I do happen to know I make those real cute. But something different would be ok too! :)
What else? Oh it snowed on Sunday and hasn't warmed up since, in fact it has gotten colder, this morning until 10:00 it was a whopping 17 degrees. Remember I live in Western Washington State. The high today is supposed to be 29 degrees. Ahhh warm... I felt so bad for my fuzzy critters outside that I made them some nice warm oatmeal and gave it to them. I should have taken pictures of that, it was funny. The goats had it ALL over their faces and George (the pony) kept nuzzling his muzzle on his front leg, so he had oatmeal smeared all up and down his leg. They were messier than a two year old! There was oatmeal all over the snow, but they were enjoying it. It made me feel a little better about making them live outside in the cold. We have a heat lamp in the little barn but still 17 degrees plus a heat lamp = cold still!
Whitney came up to me the other day after I had told her she couldn't do something. (I don't remember what it was) And said to me "Mommy when I grow up I won't take care of you." I tried not to laugh and said "Well that isn't very nice to say, maybe I will stop taking care of you now. You haven't had breakfast yet, go get yourself some." She looked at me like I was crazy then ran away. I left her alone for about 10 min. Then went to find her. She was under a blanket in the living room. I got under it with her and we had a little talk. We decided we would take care of eachother whenever we needed help. She really liked this idea and she said sorry, and she loved me and I said the same. Where does she come up with this stuff? She came up to me today and told me this joke,
knock knock
who's there?
cheyenne
cheyenne who?
Hot dog I want another Hot dog!
Then she laughed and laughed. I didn't get it. Anyone? Anyone at all?
Aubrey is so funny, she brings home a paper yesterday dec 15, that is an announcement for an art walk some of her art was chosen to be put in. At the administrative building, I was so proud of her, then I saw that the art walk was for Dec 12 and she had forgotten to give it to us. Was this an accident or is she already embarassed of us? I choose to believe she is just absent minded, she would come by it honestly. (My Mother of course. Did you think I was talking about myself? :) Ok maybe I was. Sorry mom!) She is such a good kid.
Courtney is my little lovey dovey. She came up to me yesterday just to give me a kiss, then went off to play again. So sweet. She is just playing with some dollhouse stuff right now, so quiet and letting me type. Sometime I will love to hear what she thinks about. She knows stuff, she just doesn't say it. :) She got tubes put in her ears, so hopefully that will help and she is in speech therapy, and that sure helped Whitney. Just the waiting part now. I hate waiting (princess bride)
Anyway Dan got to use his new snow blower, I have that I can post along with some other pictures of the snow, but our computer upstairs has crashed yucky, and so all we have is the laptop working at the mo. Someday I will get those pictures posted maybe even today. But for now I better go put Courtney down for her nap. And myself too. I am tired all the time these days.

I have missed you! Congrats again!
We actually got snow here! It was gone before noon, but the kids got out of school!
Those were great snipets of the girls! As for Whitney's joke, have you heard about the ones Linda used to tell...@P.
What do you mean by implying that I am absent minded! Anyone that really knows me- knows that I never loose anything or forget anything!
Cute stories about the girls!
I can just see the goats and Georgie boy all oatmealed up! It made me smile to think you thought to give them warm oatmeal! I LOVE YOU!! Mom
Congratulations! That is such great news. Having four isn't really harder than 3. As if life could get any more crazy after 3!
