Birthdays & a taste of spring

Yesterday was Hayes’ 6^th birthday. It was very low key, although I was proud I was able to bake her cake in our woodstove. Then Diamond Dog ate half of it. (That’s a couple of days after Diamond ate the luscious toffee candy our friend Charleen gave Alex!) I banned all animals from the house after that.

            We had a midwife visit. Cort is “off the chart” on weight for his age (now 7 weeks).

            Alex made me a little fenced in front yard, mostly because Lisa kept coming on the porch and eating dog and cat food. When Lisa was at the horse rescue, she’d break fences. I attributed it to her being in a pasture with three bossy ponies. Now she’s just acting like she’s starving instead of foraging for food like the other girls.

            The little yard also has a nice planting bed against the house for my herbs. My neighbor Mike read my blog about seed starting and brought me a brand new greenhouse he had in his garage. I was so excited!
