First, congratulations on baby goats! Second, congratulations on mounds of shoes to play with! Third, I shared the last few posts with my husband and he saw the blog banner and said, "Oh! This is that 'get that freaking lizard!'woman." I chuckled. I hope you do to. :)

I spent so much time staring at our goats' backsides trying to figure out when babies would arrive that I started to feel like some kind of pervert/stalker!

For a laugh, you should read the Doe's Code of Honor.

Jenny! I have totally been taking pictures of goat nipples for a week but was too afraid to admit it! LOL! We have been checking their rears a hundred times a day for any signs! LOL! I loved the doe code post! Thanks hun...

Oh I love baby goats!
You are right they are the cutest things! I have fond memories of bottle feeding baby goats as a little girl and petting their soft baby coats of hair.

Cute, cute!! Love the story about your shoes, also. So awesome how God provides!!
I was wondering if you would either do a mini-tute on those gathered flowers you have or email me some directions, if you don't mind. I have an insulin bottle{story on my blog} that was used in the hospital a few weeks ago for my little girl and I want to make cute fabric flowers to go in it.
Thank you so much!!

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
