Canning Day & Baby Watch!!

We spent Saturday morning making pickles and picante sauce! Came out great-even if we did have to buy the cukes from Wood Duck Farm's road side stand! Ours just didn't grow-no matter how much watering we did! But- the tomatoes, peppers and onions all came from the our garden-minus the ones we got from the Allbright's! Good stuff!
And we are on baby watch!! Alana is to check in at the hospital at 5:30 am in the morning to be induced!! So baby Kylee will be here tomorrow! The kids seem to be more excited at this point to get to spend the night with us!! Jordan has enough toys packed-you'd think he was going cross country instead of across the yard! And Kaytlynn is worried about Grandpa not feeding her! We'll have to leave here at 4:30 am to get there on time-hopefully it will go quickly-Kaytlynn sure came fast!!
And THANK YOU GOD!!! It finally rained today! It was SO wonderful!! We still have a chance to get some more overnight-and it seems the grass is already growing!! Hopefully we'll be able to move the cows across the road by the end of the weekend-there is just no grass left anywhere!
I'll post baby pics asap! Gotta get things ready for tomorrow!

Cutest Pic!

Isn't this just TOO sweet? They were already bedded down for the night-it's just SO hot-ain't NO way we're staying under mom's wings! We'll just perch on the edge-or better yet-how about on top??
Well-we've given up on the big garden-it just burned up!! We did bring 3 buckets of mushroom dirt into the garden here at the house yesterday-and planted field corn in it tonight and watered it in. We'll see what happens! The tomatoes are about the only things that seem to be thriving at the moment-the peppers are a close second.
I'm back on 10 hour days for the summer-at least the 16 days I have to work! And I've put 2 of them in already! We are going camping this weekend at the lake-it'll be the first time we've actually taken the camper-camping. It has always been taken somewhere and set up to stay for AWHILE. This will be the test run before our week long trip in July-can't wait!
We are still on baby watch. Alana goes to the Dr on Thursday and they will set up her date to induce. She was dilated to a 1 and starting to thin out last week and has been having contractions on and off for weeks now. Her baby shower is Saturday-so she has to hold out til then! She is SO ready!
