Quail_Antwerp: Words from the Barnyard...

Awwww!

thanks everyone.

been having a ton of heartburn lately - and before anyone says it, this doesn't mean hair! I never had heartburn with the other babies and they ALL had hair.

if she's bald, that's ok, bald babies can be cute

we've got 12 weeks to go

have had some nausea, too, and I was like what in the world? we're way beyond that first trimester! almost into the third! (wow - say that again - i'm almost into my third trimester??? )

other things to think on - it will cost $3k to fix the van.

not happening.

we could scrap the van and do 1 of 2 things:

1. save the $ towards the purchase of another vehicle, but probably wouldn't be enough to get a vehicle big enough for family anyway or

2. put the $ towards finishing both room additions before winter (insulation, drywall) and be warm for the winter.

We only have 12 weeks to baby - and i don't want a cold house. i was leaning more towards finishing the rooms...i ran that idea by E and he's thinking on it.

so not totally sure what we'll do, but we're weighing our options.

i sold my trio of orps yesterday - so down by 3 more chickens.

I had one last night - and it was super weird. It involved my G-Ma's recent passing and impending birth of Baby Girl.

In the dream, I had like a whole roomful of things that belonged to my g-ma, and i used them. Some pieces of furniture - a big oak desk, a walnut oak table (which in my dream was the one I bought in RL at an auction for $3), and even some shoes and my incubators supposedly were originally g-mas.

G-mas nine kids came over to "help themselves" and I explained I was using the stuff, that gma had given it all to me before her passing. They didn't listen to me, and took the furniture pieces, some other smaller stuff, and a necklace, but left me 3 pairs of slip on shoes that had belonged to gma. They also left the incubator, that was incubating my baby IN AN EGG! They told me as soon as baby girl was done hatching, to clean the incubator and they'd pick it up.

TALK about weird! Growing my HUMAN baby in a chicken egg??

Aly, what the heck did you eat before you went to bed last night???

 

[Javamama]

Now that's funny! I wish I could have hatched my kids. pregnancy was awful for me

 

[keljonma]

Maybe it has something to do with downsizing your poultry operation.......but most likely the spaghetti you had for dinner.

 

[Denim Deb]

Aah, if only it was that easy!

I hate pregnancy dreams. As if you aren't already stressed out enough. Your body has to go and give you all these weird dreams.

SOME of them aren't weird at all - and involve my husband ... *snickers* and he wishes I'd lay off THOSE dreams because well......
