What's going on...

Just a quick little update...(no pictures!)
*Our garden is doing great, we don't have anything to can or freeze because we are eating it ALL and it is delish!
*All of our chickens (except the little chick) are laying so we are averaging between 7-10 eggs a day. I have taken a dozen eggs to both my neighbors once a week for the past few weeks!
*Our turkeys were moved across the yard because they were crowding the chickens but they got stressed out and wouldn't stop "honking" so we moved them back. Two are going into the freezer when I come back from Jake's wedding.
*Oreo (the baby goat) went on a 2 week vacation to the goat farm to try and wean her from her momma and when we picked her up she went right back to nursing so we aren't getting any milk from Nutmeg anymore and won't until we breed her again. (which won't be until October!)
*We have about 15 rabbits going into the freezer tomorrow and then another 17 to follow in a month or so.
*We find out on Thursday if we are having a boy or girl...any guesses???
*Em has been saying the cutest things lately...When she talks to me it always starts with "Mom"
~"Mom, wake up, time to git up" (at 6am)
~"Mom, Sophie pooped" (running down the hall to tell me and I jump up to see that it was really done outside...thanks em)
~"Mom, wus fer dinner?"
~"Mom, just one baby cookie then no more, two more then no more" (Trying to negotiate a cookie deal.
~"Mom, where's the baby, in tummy. BoyGirl, sisterbrother."
~"Don't pick tomatoes, trouble timeout."
~"Mom, Nutmeg goat, watch Oreo, silly."

She's so stinkin' cute and just gets cuter everyday! Her molars on top are taking FOREVER to come in and it's caused some moodswings and irritability. I think Todd is dreading puberty with girls especially how things have been right now with me being pregnant and Em getting her last couple of baby teeth. Good luck Todd! (Here's hoping you can handle more girls if the Lord sees fit to send them to us!)

Oh my heck I love that girl!! She says the darndest things! Todd will be able to handle it, it will just take some getting used too! He's totally tough...and he'll need to be especially if you have all girls!!
