Cannin Crazy/Libby Updates!!!!

Tis the season for harvesting the fruit and veggies! I have been cannin anything and everything lately! I've even drug Kim and Grandma Bessie into it this year! So far Ive done dill pickles spicy pickles peppers apple pie filling raspberry sauce raspberry jam, and peaches!! Yummy stuff thats for sure but its a lot of work!!! Libby loves comin out to the garden with me and pickin all the veggies I must say she has gotten quite an eye for pickin things that need to be picked versus the start of the garden season where she was pickin anything that looked like an extra add on the plant regardless to how green it is!! Now she knows what tomatoes get picked and shes really good at spotting the cukes that ma missed!!! Other then gardenin just reg daily stuff is keepin us busy we went up to garrison again last weekend one of libs most favorite thing to do, in fact she cried part of the way home saying she wanted to stay at the cabin! She is now the one whos in charge of bait shes the girl with no fear she reaches in the leachs and pulls one out for ya and if you try to get one ur self all hell brakes loose! The worms are no problems either she even brakes ya off a piece when needed!! Other then that shes singing more and more and just random stuff she'll go for five minutes just singin peoples names! We have 4 baby kitties at home and bless their hearts their so far been able to endure Libby!! I went out of the barn and left libby in their to pet the kitties while I fed otis and when I left all the cats were dry but when I came back 2 of the four were soakin wet! I asked Libby what she did and while libby was picking up one of dry kitty's she said to me they need a bath their dirty and thats exactly what she did she chucked the little kitten right into the water dish! Bad day for 3 kitty's and a strike of maybe good luck for 1 kitty who was able to stay dry!! Josh has officially started on the upstairs remodel! Here we go again and how long is my house gonna be a mess YUCK!! I'm glad I'm noting here so I can show Josh the actual start date!! HAHA Ive got proof now! My hopeful goal is he can have it done by spring! We'll see! Till Next time!

Potty Trained!!!!!!

Well the title says it all my little libby isnt so little anymore she has been potty trained now for about 4 days and doin GREAT!!! I'm sooo Proud of her!! Just yesterday she was upstairs and I was down doin Laundry when I heard her start yelling so I looked up the steps to find her with her little tinker bell purse (curtasy of Kim) over her shoulder and lookin at me with stern eyes and says hurry up were late, im gonna leave with out you if you dont hurry I asked where we were goin and she said walmart! She then continues to say u better hurry im late im late for work I'm gonna leave bye I'm goin to my new vehicle!!!"Yup mama i am without you if you dont hurry"!! So I laughed and realized that is exactly what I sound like in the mornin when I'm trying to lite her fire in the mornin just exclude the walmart and the new car and you got my daily routine! I think I might have to try somethin else from now on shes too smart!!! She's really into helping me with the garden right now and picking all the different things! Other then her being Potty trained its all the same I'm learnin what I sound like and do thru libby some good some bad and yes I'm proud to say she does have a little of my wierd too! Take care and till I write again!
