Life is crazy!! We are so busy and I feel like I barely have time to do everything that needs done let alone have time to keep the blog updated too!!! So I am sorry that we are MIA a lot of the time, one of these days life will slow down some right? Anyway for now, I will catch up on what has been happening with all of us!
Curt is still working at Three Men and a Shovel and most of the time he really enjoys it. Everyday it's all sunshine and rainbows but nothing ever is. He and I are still teaching our Sunday School Class and we love this kids, even though they are little stinkers sometimes.
I have sold all the puppies that were born in my last post they are all with their new homes now. LuLu, Marshmallow, and Oreo had their babies in the last few weeks. Marshmallow had a single doe July 31st her new owners have named her Molly. LuLu had twins one boy and one girl on August 2nd I named them Ricky and Lucy the new owners that are taking Ricky have named him Poncho and Lucy will go to my cousin Barbara. Oreo had TRIPLETS on August 8th all turned out to be boys but two look like they will have blue eyes! If one keeps blue eyes we will keep him and sell TT to a new ranch. For the time being we have named them Huey, Dewey, and Louie! Lizzi Adores them and thinks they are the most fun to chase and carry around. Kenna is not mobile enough to enjoy the chasing of animals but she enjoys being around them. I had posted last time about Kiva being bred to Barrel for Pomsky puppies due this month.... it didn't happen she had a false pregnancy so I am going to have Barrel tested to make sure he is manly enough to be a stud. If he isn't manly enough then we will have him fixed and hope to find him a new loving family that can be patient with the poor scaredy cat. Then I will begin my search for a new stud either to own or just to stud to until I find the perfect match for my girls genetically. I have done some switching around on animals, Nakita is gone now that her puppies have sold, Rose also went to a Stockdog training center to work with them and is no longer living with us. This means my current dogs are Border Collies, Axle and Daisy, Huskies Kiva, Kya and Koda, Pomeranian Barrel. My goats are all the same except my new goat we had last time got attacked by dogs and died :( so I bought two new ones to replace her Snickers and Mounds. That is me for now, I had my birthday last week and it was lovely! I got the same racing four wheeler we used to have before I had the girls and I couldn't be happier to have it back! I also got the SOFTEST blanket on the planet and I have been wrapped up in it since haha. I also got cards from my family, wood crafts, movies, books, shirts and new gloves for my four wheeler! I love it!! It was a good day, Curt took the day off from work and we spent the whole day as a family.
Lizzi is growing and learning so much! She is definitely in the 2-3 year old stage of everything.....-_- she is into everything and can now open doors and is a pro tantrum thrower. Gotta love it haha this too shall pass right? She is such a great helper though, she will do almost anything you ask. She loves to get up and help me feed animals in the morning. She will come into my room "Morning mom, I wake! Mom get up wess go feed da amals! Oh mom you need some clothes on, I find you some clothes to wear" Apparently pjs no longer count as clothes as an adult haha she then pulls all my clothes out of my drawers so we can go feed "da amals". She wants to carry the food bowls and help get water and hay for the goats. She is also a great big sister is was much more content before Kenna got more mobile haha she isn't such a fan now. She spends most of the day trying to grab the toys she doesn't want McKenna to have saying "no, no Kenna dats mine". She's getting better about sharing but still struggling with the concept most days. She's too smart for her own good, knows sooooooo many words, she narrates our day everyday, knows almost all of her colors she does well thanks to her play dough. She still loves anything and everything Daniel Tiger and watches at least two episodes Monday-Friday. I know I am a terrible mom but this is when I do a quick clean or my daily chore then we spend the rest of the day together.
Kenna this little nugget turned one last week!!!!! I cannot believe it has been a year already! It was the fastest and slowest year of my life! This nugget has brought such a change to our family but we can't imagine life without her here. She is such a funny child and so different from Lizzi that it keeps us on our toes! She has decided it was time to get her teeth, she has cut 7 in the last 3 weeks and it has not been fun for anyone in the house. Now that they are through we are all back to sleeping through the night and playing during the day instead of clinging to mom non-stop!!! HOORAY! She has mastered the official crawling in the last month or two and has mastered pulling herself up to stand as well as started cruising the last couple of weeks. I think we will have a walker before long! She is wanting to stay up with her sister! She still doesn't say much Mom and occasional Dad but Lizzi usually speaks for everyone so she doesn't have much chance haha. She does babble if Lizzi is being quiet enough that she feels she can get some babbles in.
