I do however know quite well that miss Emily is a strong little bugger! lol SO reminds me of a scene from the aliens movie when she moves around. Wouldnt be an issue if her moving around wasnt so darned painfull! She has dropped quite low though, my pants actually fit again! lol And Im not having to fast anymore. Been quite hungry the past few days. lol Figured I shoudl probably listen to my body and store what sources ofenergy I can. I remember how beat I was after having Chloe. 2 days of total exhaustion, this is the first time in I would say 4 months that I have been able to really eat anything substantial and solid. I was put on a blended diet for a while there, because I was unable to eat let alone keep down solid foods with Emily.

Things are looking up, I feel good until I get tired, then I get cranky and have to disapeer or Im just not very nice. lol

The baby shower is today, Im excited to see friends and family that I hardly ever get to see. My niece from my previous marriedge is coming! I havnt seen her in over 7 years! Im so happy to be able to catch up with her and meet her little boy! Then my Aunt from my dads side is coming as well! I havnt seen her in 2 years. My great grandmother will be here, along with some cousins, a long time friend who moved to Aberdeen as well... So lots of people, and a very busy day! But Im looking forward to the hustle!

My mother heard Chloe throwing a screaming temper tantrum last night, and came over, got her, and kept her for the night so I could sleep. "Mom lives just 100' away from us." Chloe can be VERY loud when she's not getting her way. lol But I got a good nights sleep! I actually slept through the entire night! Got up at 5, took DH to work, came home, showered, then went back to bed! lol

So far its been a good day!

Oh it is gonna be a big shock to Chloe having a baby sister & not getting all her attention anymore despite temper tantrums.........my oh my !

Very excited. This is perfect for my plans for this summer. I have some of those cow/hog panels that have been sitting out in the weather for ? years. infact the wild grass has grown up through them...I burn it off every year.

Will be my retirement center for old birds (nope cannot kill as daughter won't let me) and for future endevors.

4321, I want to see your plans, but that link just led me back to the first page of the WA thread. Will you try again?

Hmmmm, let me try. It is in the BYC coops. let me go find it again. It is a hoop design. http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/permanent-hoop-coop-guide

okay, now that looks right. I will go back and fix the other too. Let me know if you do not get it. too much coffee I guess.

Thank you! They are italian greyhounds, about 8-10lbs. We have two more, four in total - they are SO hard to get a picture of them all being still and together. They are always extremely active, zipping around the house like little mini racing greyhounds LOL.

Ah okay, I remember Totalcolour and others saying their ducks went after bugs like crazy, but maybe only the ducklings?

My full grown ducks STILL eat bugs - dunno what';s wrong with CL's bugs.

Oh I know! Its going to be a huge adjustment for everyone! Ive noticed that the closer we get to Emily's arrival, the more Chloe regresses. Her speach has slipped, potty training is still working, but she's very stubborn about it, she fake cries like a baby, ect. Nothing overly extreme, but noticable.
