BUSY WEDNESDAY

Up to greet IR this morning as Kristen heads to drop Addie at school and get to work. Hubbie left to pick up g-son and get him to school. Deb, RL's other g-ma is keeping her today.
When hubbie got back I got morning chores done and then we had breakfast. IR seems tired today so I'm sure she didn't sleep well at all last night.

K said she cried herself to sleep but then seemed to be okay but was up at 6:00.
The three of us went over to the hospital this morning so she could be with her mom ,dad and sister.
She warmed up to her sister a little more this morning and even asked to hold her.

We stayed until about 12:00 and IR was really sleepy so she went to sleep on the way home and slept a good nap.
While she napped hubbie gathered trash and recyclables and I baked cakes, I baked 6 caramel, 4 pound cakes and 1 pan of brownies.
I was getting the last ones from the oven when Kristen came by to pick up IR to take her with her to Addie's dance practice and then to the hospital.
Hubbie and I aren't going back over tonight as we have to get ready for market tomorrow.
Re has a staff meeting at the hospital and she wants to visit daughter and the baby while she is there so EL and BB are staying with us for a while this evening. RL came up to play with them for awhile.

BB had to help me shovel and rake the dirt back up around my Hostas since the chickens have scratched it all down into the driveway.

We got chores done then I iced cakes and got things ready for market.
The pictures from the hospital were cute tonight as IR warmed up even more to baby sister giving her hugs and kisses.

Back in May of 1989 we had a pre-mature little calf that it's mother rejected so we bottle fed it with the help of the kids. We kept it around the yard and even at times in the house.
