We hate our kitchen floor!

Not only is the floor white and never looks clean but it has now claimed one of Lily's teeth. Ari and her were playing at the kitchen table and it was one of those moments that I said to myself that I shouldn't let them do that because they might crash. Sure enough Ari tipped her chair over and Lily fell right on her tooth. I called Lani a friend who has a dental surgeon husband and a child who lost a tooth as a toddler. She told me to look for the tooth on the floor or maybe it had just got pushed back in. After mistaking for a noodle a cherrio and reminding myself how dirty white tile floor is. I finally found the tooth root and all.

This is Lily pre-accident and today after lunch with Mac and Cheese all over h

er face and one tooth missing. I guess I better I've got to get used to her new look because she will be like this for the next 7 years or so.

You may want to see if she needs some sort of space maintainer or that space may close up making it hard to fit all of her permanent teeth in.

i'm guessing that was brent's idea, not kashann's...
Poor little girl. Did it bleed? Her first injury *i think* to blame on her older siblings.

It bled a tone and started up again several times that day. But it didn't seem to phase her too much and she wanted to be out jumping on the trampoline and climbing back on the table. She seems fine now.

I feel your pain, and Maxwell feels Lily's. I'm glad I found your blog, and I love your politico comments!

Speedy Gonzales and the Black Stretchy Pants

Tues April 6 started as any other day. We woke up and went to a doctors appointment for the girls. That afternoon when I got home I was starving. I ate way too much and then soon got a headache that I blamed on the chocolate dessert that I ate. After resting for a while the phone rang and it was a neighbor who started off the phone call saying "I was hoping that you wouldn't answer because you would be at the hospital. I laughed at her and said no way I have at least two more weeks left. After the phone call about 6:30 Dave told me our goat had had a baby but had died so we called all the kids out and told them about it and we buried it. Then we had a late dinner and put the kids to bed. About 5 minutes later I had a contraction. I thought weird and Dave told me it was just goat sympathy pains. So as I had a few more sporadic contractions I convinced myself that it was just braxton hicks because there was no way that they were "real." I sat down and watched AI ...

Yesterday the boys had a school holiday so Dave took a day off and we headed for the mountains. My awesome husband loves to ski and spent many hours on the slopes, but that was all before he married me. I would love for him to ski but life happens with a family and budgets exist and it makes skiing a hard hobby to maintain. Plus we spent about 3.5 yrs in Minnesota where you get lots of snow but not a single ski hill in sight-what a waste of snow. The last couple years, I have tried harder to give my husband chances to ski. We even went out about 3 years ago and purchased all the gear at a rental store going out of business. And I close my eyes as I see how much we pay, tell myself it is all worth it, and then smile. (Remember I am cheap so skiing just wouldn't naturally be on my radar.) This year for Christmas I gave my husband 2 lift tickets purchased for a great deal at Costco. First of all, I am used to spending lots of money at Costco and that way I wouldn't stress ...

Finally some pictures

Hooray we have new windows! The installers left this morning and we now have 5 beautiful vinyl windows and one of them is a bay window. We are taking advantage of the tax credit for energy efficient windows and hoping that we can stay a little warmer this winter. So all day yesterday we had no windows in our house and at the end of the day our house was full of flies. Thank goodness that global warming has taken a vacation in CA because it has been a burning 75 degrees the last 2 weeks. Of course it happens to be the weeks that my kids are in swimming lessons so they have been freezing. Yesterday one of Daves work colleagues came by to look at our goats. Seeing that we know nothing about them except what I have found googling, this guy is a definite expert. He told we should butcher them soon or sale them as they are ready. If it was a matter of me being ready they would have been butchered 2 weeks after we got them. They have been a real pain in the neck. I have gotten used ...
