June/July

New month, new things happening. We are officially done cutting wheat, YEAH!!!! I didn't work at Paoli this year, with Ryan still nursing it was going to be impossible. So I got to take on the task of cooking supper to take out to the field. WOW, I don't think I ever gave my grandma enough credit for taking care of us and getting hot meals out to the field. It is a lot of work when you have 2 little ones that want/need you right when it is time to get everything ready. We survived though and I even got compliments on my meals, so I must have done something right.

Nicole finished up swimming lessons and really enjoyed them. She refused to get her face wet (imagine that). She really liked her teacher and by the end of the 3 week class she was the leader of her class for circling around the pool (holding on to the edge). She wanted to take the class again just as long as she didn't have to get her face wet :)

Ryan can get just about anywhere scooting along and of course rolling. He and Nicole are hilarious as they are already fighting over toys. He definitely knows what "no" means and when he doesn't want to hear it he puts his head down and looks the other way. He likes every kind of baby food he tries and is a pro at the sippy cup. I can't believe how fast 9 months has flown by!!!

Hazen is officially 32 years old!! He had another birthday in the field and fixing a broken down baler. However, he got a nice hot supper, and compliments of Grandma S a birthday cake and homemade ice cream. Now he is super busy with getting up all the alfalfa. We really won't see much of him until September...unless it rains.

Well until next time....
