Birthday..ugh what?

What a day!! We woke up this morning and within 10 minutes we we're getting ready to head out the door to go visit someone we hadn't seen for awhile! Kaleb wanted to go back and see the goats and stuff so we made a stop at Courtney's too, I didn't mind because this way I got to hold sweet baby Keira!!  I was so surprised at how well behaved our Harley belle was, she said at the door of the barn and waited for us to tell her it was OK, she's something else that dog! I just love her to pieces! Definitely one of my smartest dumb decisions ever!! Kaleb was even braver with the goats today he spent  a good amount of time in the pen with the three youngest ones. The little white one was crawling all over him and he just loved it. So Neill and I have been talking and once we do a little more research and such we will more then likely be buying a couple pygmy goats so that Kaleb can do 4H with them and so he can have some of his own to play with! We are going to need our own farm soon, oh well all in due time!!

So after another busy morning we came home and I left again with Grammie and poppa to go to Costco to get a few last things for Kenzie's birthday party. Once I got home it was cupcake making time, I've made over 3 dozen cupcakes today and I love it! I honestly really like baking I find it relaxing in a strange way. I don't find the cleanup all that fun but that's all part of it :) I think I'm still in a bit of denial about my sweetie turning one on Saturday. I look at her and it just doesn't feel possible that shes already going to be a year old. I hate that they grow up so fast. I mean yes there are aspect that I like. Once they can start talking and can tell you what they want and whats bothering them it makes life so much easier but I still think they should stay babies just a little longer. Some days I look at the kids and think oh just one more and I could say OK that's enough babies. But then I think well with one more baby I'll be that much busier and time will go by just that much faster so I'll be missing the baby phase just as much. I wonder if that feeling ever goes away. The feeling of wanting another baby, to have something that just needs you so much. To feel that little life growing inside you. aah I loved being pregnant. But as much as I loved being pregnant and enjoyed the baby phase I love watching my babies grow and develop their own funny personalities!

We got a letter from the hospital today for Neill's surgery, or what we thought what was going to be about his surgery turns out that the Dr he saw at the emergency room wasn't enough so now hes on a waiting list just to see a specialist about the hernia and then they will schedule his surgery..ugh poor guy. The pain is getting worse and he even finds it hard walking and stuff. Its going to make for a very long and boring summer for him that's for sure. We did get some good news though, when he goes on medical leave for the recovery from the surgery he'll still get 55% of his pay which will be a big help!

After another long and busy day all I want to do is curl up on the couch and watch TV, but I think I'll work on some more of the birthday decorations and that way tomorrow isn't quite as busy! 

Till Next Time!!
