tiny slice of happy

I have finally ordered a new laptop and should be arriving early next week. Hooray! I am so excited to get caught up on the Shaytards, you have no idea!

Ben turns 2 on the fifth and we are having his Birthday party on Sunday (which is also Mothers Day) so I have to kick it into high gear around here to get the place ready. No sense doing major cleaning until the day or two before because with these three Tasmanian devils nothing stays clean and neat for long. Mom and Dave are coming on Saturday so hopefully she can make the long ride with little discomfort. Cross fingers!

We are calving like crazy here now. Just yesterday we had 6. Chad is still up doing chores and checking on the cows so we will see when he comes down how many more (if any) we have today. The boys are getting quite the lessons being around the cows. There was afterbirth laying on the ground and they wondered what it was. So we explained about the placenta and the sac that the baby grew in. Luckily that's as far as their curiosity went, but Jack did tell his teacher about the cow placenta and they discussed as a class all about it! We were very surprised we did not receive a phone call from his teacher.

I gave Ben a hair cut and I think it is a smidge too short, but he still looks handsome. What do you think?

What a CUTE kid!! OMG. When you're that cute it doesn't matter what your hair looks like anyway, but he looks really cute with short hair!
