Fall Time!

I love fall, along with probably just about everyone else! The colors, the air, the food, and the light!! We took Mikayla's and Sullivan's pictures at a near by field just the other day, it was sooo pretty. I love the lighting and colors in these pics, and even more the children in it! Also I took Sullivans 9mos photos a few weeks ago, time is sure flying!! Pretty soon he'll be a year old!! wow! We have been soo busy lately, with Church, school, starting canning and preserving. On a sad note, we can not find our kitty Molly! :( She's been missing we think since Sunday, but this is SOO unlike her to not be hanging around the house. We have checked everywhere, neighbors barns etc. no trace of her. So please pray she comes home soon and safe, or I will have one sad sad 11yr old! I praise the Lord though for his blessings in my life, He's soo gracious, what an amazing God  I serve!!

New Goats!

So we had decided a little while ago to get another goat, to have a more steady flow of milk, when we breed one, and ours also was getting low on her milk supply. So after a while of looking(they are not very easy to find around here) we came across an ad for some goats, so we decided to go take a look and hopefully be able to buy one! I had miss typed the address in when I googled directions the first time, we thought they were an hour away, well come to find out, they were really 3hrs one way!! So we made the decision to go anyways, we were having no luck finding any around here anyways. So we made the long long journey, Mikayla and Sullivan stayed with My friend Nicole, and of course this is the evening Sullivan decides to cut a tooth! So he was not a happy camper!! :(( Well, we ended up bringing three Goats home! We got a great deal, and now we have a nice little herd! Can't wait to get to know these girls! They seem soo sweet.

 This is Brandy, she is a Alpine Nubian cross she's about a year and a half
 This is Beatrice, she is pure Alpine, and a herd leader, this is the best pic of her I could get, she was too busy butting heads with my other adult Fawn(another herd leader)
 This is Cloe', pure Alpine, sooo sweet!
 Cloe' again!
 Launa, she has grown! pretty girl!
 Brandy
And Fawn, protecting "her" barn! She doesn't really want to share that space!
The new girls are a little on the thin side, normal for a doe in milk, but I think we can get them fattened up a bit!

We have new babies!!

Yes new little babies! Chicks of course! We had one of our hens sitting on a cluch of eggs, this is our second attempt, last time was a no go. Well this time it worked but only for four little ones! She was sitting on about 12-15 eggs, I'm not sure, and through out the 21days she broke a few here and there. Well on Sunday, our rooster escaped the pen, and my husband went out to take care of him, and low and behold there with momma hen was four cute little chicks, also one fetus that died in egg and two unhatched eggs(which turned out they died too, not sure why) so we only got four, but that's great! they are soo cute and it is just soo neat to watch how mommy hen takes care of them!
Also have to share how sweet little Sullivan looks in his sweet shirt n tie for Church on Sunday! Thanks to my best friend Nicole for passing down this tie and others!
He's soo cute, he is waving in this picture!

I have not posted in a whole month!!!! it's been too long! It seems all I post lately is about Sullivan turning another month! Time is just flying bye! I hope to post more soon about other things! lol But I just had to share that my sweet little boy is now 8months old!! We did studio pictures, with a cute new prop I bought with him in mind!! He looks sooo adorable in this little sock monkey outfit!! I love how they turned out, it is soo fitting for him, he is turning into such a monkey, loves to climb, stand and try to get around everywhere.

Some Summer Happenings....

It's been a while since I've blogged, we have been so busy with this and that! Here is a little look at what we have been doing!
Mikayla is working on still completing her Maine notebook she is doing for school. A school project that is running into the summer months, but learning never really ends. We went to the capital building and toured inside, it seemed more like an art museum with all the painting there.







 Well one day I wanted to get a picture for my mom of her grandkids, but well that didnt go so well, maybe another day.
 Sophie loves Sullivan
 Then we went to DEW animal kingdom. It was fun! Lots of neat animals to see. We were just amazed at how many animal our Lord has created! Such varity and design!


 Sullivan really loved looking at the animals, Sophie on the other hand, she didnt mind but definatly wanted to keep her distance!

Sullivan pretending to drive the car as we wait to watch the fireworks!


 Oh and one day we got this tiny tiny little egg, it's called a fart egg! There was no yoke inside! Bizarre!

Sullivan is 6months!

 Wow I can not even believe that Sullivan is six months old already! Time flys! My little boy can now sit up pretty much all on his own, you still need to stay close by just in case he topples, but I dont think he even did at all during his photo shoot! Well we got to photograph in the new studio, which isnt done yet, but I begged my husband just to put the backgrounds up even though we are not done, so that we could get his six month session in! This is one of the big ones! Although we kept it short today, because he got tired quick! Mikayla was a huge help with the photo shoot! couldnt have done it with out her! :)
