Playing Catch Up

I've been sitting here trying to think of what to write about today. My last post was a pretty big downer and since I'm still kind of in a bad place at the moment when it comes to my horses. I got hit with another frigen shocker this morning when I got to the barn, that just sent me on a whirl wind of emotions and ugh to be honest it's exhausting. See where we board our horses they are under going some pretty major Reno's like new arena and turning the current arena into a permanent barn. but since they were already full they had been using the current arena as a barn anyways and that's where my girls where so when I got there this morning it was pouring rain so I of course expected to see my pretty girls standing in their stall happy to see me. I walked into a totally different thing all together. I walked in to see my horse's soaking wet in the run in after having spent the night outside. Yes they could come in for shelter if they wanted but still. One Ariel is my futurity baby. I need her to be kept at optimal condition at all times, and Second I just spent $140 on horse shoes for delight and now she stuck out into a swampy field. Now as mad and upset I am that they have to life like that , what hurts me the most is the fact that no one felt the need to let me know that my horses will be living like that for a minimum of two weeks. Now to some it may seem like I'm over reacting but think of it this way, these two have in kept inside with blankets on all winter and Delight is on 100% summer show hair and Ariel isn't far behind her. So now I'm stuck debating if i should reconsider the location I'm boarding them or if I should just suck it up. I'm going tomorrow to talk to someone else about maybe moving the girls there. I'll be able to make my mind up easier after that.




OK so now I've gotten whats bothering me off my chest I'll tell y'all about the good stuff that has happened since Friday! We had a very nice weekend, Saturday started out rough with a bad trip to Walmart but quickly turned around to end up being a great day! We went to visit mom and Nan was down too so that was nice, the kids are always so happy to see her!. Once we got home Neill and I actually sat down and watched a movie together no babies demanding out attention. It was nice it made all the crying the week before teaching Kenzie  to go to sleep on her own. Sunday Poohie went to Sunday school, so we went and visit the errands at Walmart. We got my show outfit for the show in may. Then headed to my grandparents to pick up poohie and have lunch with them! I had an awesome experience I got to bottle feed a goat for the first time ever. It was so cool. poor Kaleb has a very weak stomach and he was fine until he smelt the milk and then nope he wouldn't do it no more. I felt bad for him but he at least got to try to do and was able to see the little goats all happy and drinking it was a really cool thing to share with my kids. Kenzie wanted to get down and play with them it was cute! I'd say her favorite part of the visit to Courtney's was the 2 week old kittens her eyes got all big and she just looked so happy it was adorable! I really wish I could move onto a small piece of land so we could keep our horses at out own place and we could have a couple goats and stuff. We are a family of animals lovers stuck in an apartment that none of want to be in lol. Oh well you make do with what you have and you learn to live with the decisions you've made. Neill and I watched a couple more movies Sunday night and I shocked myself I only feel asleep during the second one!! Lately the minute I sit down and relax a little bit I'm out like a light!


Well now I've got you up to I can fill you in on the cuteness of today! Kaleb and I finally tackled his bedroom, it was an DISASTER of epic proportions. But now it looks amazing, He is very proud of his room now, he said that he was going to stay awake all night just so he could show his dad what a good job he did! I told him it would still be clean in the morning so it was safe to go to sleep! We had a little chat and he's going to try to keep his room clean like that all the time, I said your room should like this every night. A little while later he went in to put something away and he goes I'm gonna make my room like this every night it was pretty awesome! 


Kenzie is getting closer and closer to walking she walks along everything and anything now and likes walking holding our hands. I'm sure it won't be long and off she'll go. She's teething like crazy right now. When Kaleb was little I thought he had big teeth but man his teeth were small compared to the teeth in her mouth ouch is the only thing that comes to mind, he poor little gums are all swollen and red but she's a tough nut and is staying in pretty good humor just the same. She has quite the character my little peanut princess! She quite clearly told her brother no over the weekend it was so cute. He was trying to get her to say Cat and she shook her head and said no it was priceless. Another great achievement this weekend was Kenzie learning how to drink from a straw! She could scream and yell at us to hold her sipping cup for her she had no desire to even try to hold it for herself so we decided well its worth a try I only had to show her once and BAM she now holds her own cup and can drink without us holding it for her!!


I think I've vented and ranted enough for one night its time for me to go fold my mountain of laundry!!


Till Next Time!!!
