No real farm update bu for some unknown reason I decided I needed more hobby's lol. As if farming, baking, and homeschooliny kids weren't enough I taken up quilting, crochet and knitting. Oh and I making a toy for Josiah (the baby). I had a old pair of my husband jeans that had a tear so I repurposed them.this is the pillow I made from them lol.

Them's the kind that bring big money. Quilts aren't supposed to be 'perfect' in every seam, hem and stitch.

:D forthe first time in three weeks I gotten to bed before 11 most of the time I get there it's either 12 or 1 am I go sleep!!!:weee. So today I have a friend coming over with her kiddos we goin to be doing school together (the kid are homeschooled lol not me however it does feel the other way around quite often most often with patience). Our science subject is the earth layers so I made playdough this morning I just need to dye it and make a earth. For those grandparents and parents aunt's and uncle's and other who just like playdough this recipe is awesome. The store bought playdough one is evil it's sticks to everything it crumbles drys out to fast and stinks if you ask me I could go on complaining about it but you get the drift. This play dough doesn't stick is easy for my two year old Bout to be three to mold (even the 9month old can play with it). It doesn't dry out as fast, and it does no crumble or stick t things .love it. And it takes like ten minutes to make. Playdough recipe
1 cup flour
1/3 cup salt
2 teaspoon cream or tarter
1 cup water
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil.here the site https://pin.it/kgo5vm5mrblmhh . I can wait. Anyways my husband is almost done with the goat house I take pictures when he done. The goat and him are in a race lol. Daisy started bagging up last week or so she hasn't shown any Other signs but sh a goat lol . I have my brother fiance also in the running she due dec 15 lol there will be babies everywhere. I am so far be having trying no to get anymore animals right now I am stretched thin but I enjoy it. I will b getting a new incubator before hatching weather lol to add more chicks lol my husband so sweet h also goin to build a new coop for me and a duck and goose house and possibly a new rabbit house :clap:woot:woot. Oh m garden doin well m tomatoes are getting flowers and the pumpkons have lots of flowers only problem as been all three (maybe four) plants have had nothing but female flowers so I have no pumpkins :confused:. That being said my brocobro loves the weather as we're the tomatoes and peppers are growing alot slower. Oh and I threw some barley I my smaller garden (mostly t prevent weeds) we see how that does it's more for fun plus how cool to make bread from it with the kids). The kids love the garden it helping keep us busy with constant weeding I am detemined not to let it get over grown. I been keeping pretty busy with everything I am trying to stay on top of all the cleaning we shall see I just want to state I can happy clean the animal houses but I hate cleaning my house could be something t do with the animals house stay clean longer or the fresh air or both lol. Anyways I need to get a move on before the kids wake see y'all later!
