We are doing well... I am trying to get things done (like laundry and weeding) despite this load of sleepiness. Despite my goal of Not having morning sickness, I've been feeling quite nauseous. I kept John up last night, trying to get comfortable, trying not to barf. I think it was probably eating too much sugar yesterday, or not getting enough sleep, or not drinking enough, or taking my nasty vitamins too close to bedtime. Whatever it was, I feel quite ready to Not have any more ice-cream the whole 9 months after last night! :-) (you may need to remind me of that!) Pickles taste better anyways!

We now have a total of 4 calves. John picked up the last 3 last Thursday night and they have been a handful! They are still on a bottle and it is quite the feeding frenzy trying to keep all of them occupied with their own bottle. They pull at the bottle, shake their head up and down and side to side, and do everything they can to try to get as much milk as they can (while doing aerobics at the same time, while they step on your feet!)
The first calf has been doing great munching on grass. He seems so mature and calm compared to the new three.
John got up an electric fence and it is so sweet to see them out in the sun in their little pasture. Eventually he will make it bigger for them but this small area has helped them learn to respect the electricity. ;-)

John and I have been reading through name books and have decided that we like more boy names than girl names. It's funny how influenced we are by people we know with a name we like. It may have the best meaning and have such a likeable sounding name, but if the person we know isn't likeable... it pretty much kills it for us! But it works nicely the other way too, some names we probably wouldn't have considered but because we know someone nice etc. it adds a new shine to it. One name we really like has two opposite meanings depending on which book you look in :-D Thankfully, we [almost always] like the same names :-)

Hope your day is Great!
