where did the time go?
Long time since my last post uh. The weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas have become a complete blur! I was so worried about getting a card out to my sister quickly, I forgot to sign it and sent her a completely blank card, no return address, with the picture of my child featured below. wonder how many family members got the same thing? I send my family the actual printed pictures at Christmas and order cards for my friends. I managed to get presents for most of the family, except for my niece and nephews in Texas. I’m going to have to get their Christmas to them late. And Matt, poor guy, is going to have to get his gifts after Christmas too. I have a pretty good idea what I’m going to get him, and hopefully we can just plan a trip to the mall after the holidays.
Margaux is doing great! She is getting bigger and bigger. I'm cutting back on the breastfeeding and she is starting to take at least one big formula bottle a day.Most days, I'm so over the nursing. Other days, I feel guilty or bad about wanting to quit. I’m also trying to change her sleeping pattern a bit. She is a wonderful sleeper. Her schedule was from 6pm to 5am, early but do able. However… she has decided to tweak it to 6 pm to 4:30am. I can not hang with that. Especially since she has been sleeping in our room because of how cold the house has been getting at night. For the past few nights I have been keeping her up until 7:30 and we are working on making wake up time at 6am. My mother envisions our bedroom looking like a refugee camp. Margaux on one side of the bed, biscuit (the dog) on the other, us (and maybe a cat… or two) in the bed and a electric space heater. Ahh, the memories.
In farm news: our sheepy girls are back and bred. We will be expecting lambs in the next few months. I am so pumped! Hannah Montana and Sally Pearl came home on Saturday. It appears that Sally is going to be the first to lamb. We also acquired a new ewe too. It was quite funny to see all the animals reunite. The goats (Snickers and Peppermint) put on a show jumping, head butting, and walking around on their hind legs. The new ewe stomped her feet at all her new friends. She had happy feet. I think we have decided to name her Lammy Gaga!
Any way… I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a wonderful Holiday!
Our Christmas card this year
