I am so excite for Jen to put the book out there finally! She has waited for so long to get this published that its just about time! She is having a launching party on October 9 in Centerville. It will be so fun. I am hoping that she sells out when the day is done. And then again the next day!!!! Its a really cute book and a book that kinda reminds me of the old books you would get for Little Women. Just a great-solid book!

Me-well still radiated and confined in my moms basement. But that is ok because she is making yummy food. Yesterday I didnt have much to eat and so today I was stoked when we had lemon pepper chicken, onion and pea rice (a red rice) and corn. It was soooo good! But its not all bad. I have access to the tv and the computer. Good thing tomorrow is the last day or i would go crazy because there is only so much time you can spend on a computer.

A few days ago we got invited to a time share with Seans parents. We are excited for a change of scenery for even a few nights. We should be swimming in fun. Or swimming in alot of nothing to do. Either way it will be fun no matter what dang it!!!!! lol

Our little chickens finally hatched from their eggs. We are so excited. I watched and watched for the weeks. They were due to hatch on the 21st which was a Wednesday. I left to can some peaches with my mom Monday and Tuesday. Tuesday about 3 hours before I was due to come home they all hatched. I kinda saw one come out of the egg via ichat but was a little miffed that I missed it all! The kids were able to come home and watch though and that was enough to make me ok with missing their coming into the world. They are ALL black. Some have white or yellow and one with some rust color on his head but they are black- Out of the 7 eggs we bought we got 5. That is pretty good seeing how we were planning on 3-4 at the most. Goes to show you cant count your chickens until they hatch! hehe

They are so cute. Sean loves his little ladies and in all fairness I do too. Its been a fun experience with them and watching how they get out. We could hear them peeping a few days before they actually pecked a hole into the egg. Ben was able to take the egg shells for his cool educational experience this week. I thought it was cool anyway.

Today was a quiet day. I went out to check on the baby and she said "Mom check the mailbox" and I figured that I might as well play along and at least put the flag down. I looked inside and there were two kittens in there. Then in the house she put the table chairs around the house. When I finally put those together I saw in the plaster pumpkins Ihave out for decorations-she has stashed a buffet of cereal. I was wondering how she was munching everywhere at all times! Sigh. Its a good thing she is so stinkin' cute!
