well, where do I begin? Our little angel is getting to be more and more fun all the time. As you can tell in the first picture she does have teeth on top and they do hurt when she bites (not often-just when she gets mad!) She has been playing outside when it's not wet or too windy out and she has been playing with her 2 ornery cousins Zachary and Nathan. When I was watching all of them the other day I heard Zach laughing and something rolling. I turned around and he was pushing Baylie in the dump truck. It was so cute I had them do it again so I can get a picture. She likes to talk to Nathan as you can see, but he was interested in his train movie. They all get along well with each other, which makes things more fun. 

As you can see in the final picture there is 1 cow and 3 calves and yes, they are all hers. How exciting it was the other morning when Brad found them. They usually have a few sets of twins every year and this year they haven't had any twins. Then came along this set of triplets. It made Brad and Larry's day. They are so cute--don't ya think. This picture was taken not too long after they were born. 

As you have heard about China's big earthquake, Jeremy is fine. In his email he basically was asleep through the whole thing. The earthquake was more in the middle of the country and Jeremy is 30 minutes or so from the Pacific Ocean, so he was quite a ways away from the traumatic event--thank goodness! He is going to travel to Korea on Monday so we'll see how well he likes that. 

My last run I did in St. Joe was the Apple Blossom Run and I did it in 28:00-it's a decent time. I have another 5K to run in St. Joe again at Krug Park tomorrow the 17th so wish me luck--there will be hills!!

Hello everyone! I know it has been a little while, but we have been busy. Between playing on the farm, going to Granny Janny's and Papa Marlin's and birthday parties, we don't know what to do with ourselves!! Well, this past month I had ran in a couple of 5k races and did good. Baylie stays with Granny Janny while I am running around the country. I ran in Conception's Abbey Trails and one in St. Joe Run for Reading race. Both were fun. Baylie has been discovering new things on the farm and loves to ride with Grandpa Busby in the mule. She still chases the cats around and moo's at the cows. Now that uncle Matt has his show pigs, she has to go see them also and make her piggy sounds at them too just like down at Papa Marlin's. 
She had a really good time at Ean Meyer's birthday party. She had a good time with him, the dump truck, playing in her own Mickey cake, and playing with Diesel. Jennifer and Tim got Diesel for Ean as a birthday present, but I think Jennifer enjoys him more than anyone right now!!! He is adorable I must say.
Daddy on the other hand has been getting anxious about getting in the field to start planting. (As well as everyone else in the county!!) There is still a lot of work to get done and time seems to be running out. It's already May and no seeds in the ground:( Other than that, Brad is doing good. His 32nd birthday was yesterday. He said it was just another day! 
For the upcoming month, we hope to be planting, I'll be running more races in St. Joe and around the country side, and Baylie will be running around the yard--if it's not raining-- playing where ever she is at, and hopefully getting our pool up later this month. I know we will be there for a lot of our time this whole summer! Oh, and she finally has 3.25 teeth on the top now and still only 2 on the bottom. Slowly but surly she's getting teeth!!
