January A happy new year!

Well I do not have a camera.. So no pictures until i can get one! We are doing just fine and I cant wait to find out what the baby is going to be!  I had my first dr visit and it went great! My due date is August 15th. But Given my past history I will deliver the first of August. The kids are doing school and playing outside when we have our warm days. We also put up 30 gallons of sauerkraut  we will be canning it in Feb. We try to keep busy and we have several trips planned this year all before July as I cant travel after that. So a busy year! Im shopping for a camera today! I will not go long with out capturing our fun filled days!
