• Saturday, December 1, 2007 - Windy Windy WINDY Sat.

Did I mention the wind is really blowing?   So for it hasn't stirred up my allergies though!   They say it is blowing 20 mph with gust to 35 or so.  Hummm I think it is worse than that here. As it is HOWLING. 

 

I brought one more baby to the barn this morning.  Just when I make the mistake of saying I think we are done with babies.  This one probably is one of those that mother nature was dealing with in her harsh but good for the species way.  He has what is know as parrot mouth.  If you look at a parrots mouth, how the top jaw is way over the bottom one, that is how this baby is.  My guess is he couldn't nurse the nanny.  Yes, I stepped in and will try and save him.  The upside is it is a boy so won't be reproducing this genetic problem.  I can fix that :).  He didn't get the colostrum in the first 12 hours which lessons his chances of making it.  I saw them last night when I checked.  Mama was still cleaning them. 

 

Kids and I made whole wheat muffins for breakfast, snack  or what ever.   I had way to many bananas that were over ripe.  I added all of them.  I decided to add some nuts, but only had flax seed and sunflower seeds so I added that!   Should be interesting.  They are cooking now.   I love this recipe I have yet to make bad muffins.  I have also never made them the same twice! 

 

DH is sick today.  Not sure if his week at work is getting to him or if he is taking the cold bug I have had.  He just aches all over.   Good thing we didn't have plans for today.  He can vegs out and rest.  Maybe he will feel like going to church tomorrow.  I hate it when he is sick.  He is one of these guys that NEVER gets sick, but when he does, boy does he make up for the times he didn't!  

 

Muffins are about done so I am off to eat!  All have a blessed day!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving your deliteful comment. As for the wheat, Im where you were, not knowing what to do with it. LOL. I would love to eat whole wheat all the time, but alas, Im the only one. My dh is not a healthy eater by no means, he comes from a family who believes in "fat at the table" LOL. And yes he could stand to loose more than a few pounds,lol.
I love whole wheat muffins and cook them for myself from time to time.
Well I hope your dh gets to feeling better really soon..........Kitty

About Me

Just want to share the joys and tears of living in the country with others that understand them both. I am mom to 5 children. Two biological and three adopted. We are praying for one more adopted soon. We live 40 miles from town on 117 acres. My days are full of homeschooling children and dealing with livestock. Life is never dull or boring or "normal" what ever normal is. I ramble on here often, some times more than once a day as this is my main form of socialization with adults during the day. Hope to make some new friends here.
