Between milking goats, medicating the injured horse (x-rays show little cartilage left in her ankle), and preparing four little girls and myself for church, we were verrrrrrrrry late.  But I didn't stress which I have learned is more important than being on time.  I am sure i will figure out the routine eventually.  I asked Jacob if we could just stay home and play dress-up with the baby.  She is so adorable.  My mom bought these adorable handmade shoes to her.  They stayed on for about five minutes.  We finally have had a break in the weather.  Yesterday was chilly in the morning at 80 degrees and at 92 degrees it was pleasantly warm.

hello out there in blog land. this is a short description of our family. We are five plus a dog, two horses and a fish named Morty, thats right, Morty, not Marty, Morty. Lilly is very particular about this. Jacob and I were married in Denver, Colorado, in 2002, or was is 2003, jacob would know for sure. We have three girls, Lillian (Lilly,), Joslyn (Josi) and the smallest though she will probably be the tallest when all is said and done, Jordyn (a.k.a. "the baby"). We live in Choctaw Oklahoma. Our German Shepherd's name is Brewster. The neighbor's dog also spends quit most of its time here and lilly calls it "lil' fella" although we figured out he is a she. The horses names are Woodrow and Maggie. Maggie was a stray. yes, a stray horse. It happens quite a lot here, actually. We love making cookies and reading stories and going to the park. That's it for now, i have to make lunch, or so the kids tell me. the pictures are of crystals on grass in our b...

Here it is, almost seven glorious months since thebirth of baby Jordyn and I am just getting back to blog land. i wasn't sure anyone would read our blog and i was disheartened. i checked in a couple weeks ago, and lo and behold, five blessed friends had left messages. Hope was rekindled in my heart and after reading a couple other friends blogs, i realized what a blessing i think they are. I love seeing pictures. So, if any of you happen to grace us with your presence on our blog again and you have a blog, please let me know, I will be sure to follow. Like I said, seven months have passed. The baby is sitting well on her own for the last couple months, she scoots her feet around if i "walk" with her, and she is pulling herself over trying to get around. i think she will be crawling in no time. She is a happy baby. I can hear her banging her toys around in the next room. She is safe from the other two for now, as they are eating the neighbor out of popcicles. the icky, sti...

Here's a bit of whats been going on around here: * Lilly started school and decided to go by "Lillian" at school. *I stood in an ant hill while swinging Joslyn and got bitten. Talk about opposition in all things. *When i come back in the room, the baby is not in the same spot as I put her down. How'd she do that? She looks as baffled as i do. *the baby is almost crawling. *While cleaning the kiddie pool, Lilly told me she doesn't care about play time, she just wants to do lots of hard work and earn lots of money. I tried hard to keep a straight face. *I started running again after five years. I have done five miles at a time, pushing the double jogging stroller. kudos for me. *found a passion flower growing wild on the hill behind the house with lots of fruit on it! *Accidentally hit the dog on the head with a stick while playing catch at a pond! *Lilly upset because the neighbor called her a bad name. Come to find out the bad name was "pee-wee ." *Pick...
