Good morning Abi, I hope you have been well!

Giving up on breastfeeding and now doing pumping with formula supplements until my supply increases a bit. After discovering power pumping (which simulates cluster feeding) yesterday I did my second ever session after feeding Honeybee and managed to get a little over 3 ounces in one pumping session. This is a miracle after so many disappointing sessions of only getting 1-2 ounces.

San Antonio got honest-to-goodness snow tonight. Friends are posting pictures. Here we had a little snow a week ago but not cold enough to stick. It's 2 degrees celsius (that's 36 degrees fahrenheit for Americans) so unless we get a hard freeze for a couple days before it snows we aren't going to have any that sticks around.

If you're willing to wait 12 more days we'll be stateside and you can take advantage of the cheaper US prices and the flat-rate US shipping.

I was that. Where are the baby pictures posted? I gave up on catching up.

Where did you live as a kid to get 70 below?

The biggest state my friend a bit west, and a lot North of you

Of course twenty to thirty five below was more normal. The only time they ever closed school was a school day when it was that cold.

You tried those hand warmer packets that hunters use?

They even make gloves that those packets slide into on top of your hand where the blood flows.
Any hunting success?

 

[daxigait]

Do those things go bad? I still have almost a full box I keep forgetting about.

Eventually. They are dated so likely get less effective.

Stopping by to say

You tried those hand warmer packets that hunters use?

Not for the coop, no. I probably have some kicking around somewhere but I don't know where.

I have to give six weeks shots yo the one doe this weekend. She is before all the rest because she didn't take last year so I put her in with the buck in June. I think she was bred in early to mid August. We shall see.
