Yeah, it's been awhile, that's starting to become almost the start of every blog, might have to try adn do something about that...but it's winter, and not much really happens here during winter, its just wet, muddy and wet!
We've spent this morning cleaning out the barn (we've had the goats in the barn for a few weeks every night, and man do they make a mess!) I've made pallets so they are off the floor but we still have to clean up the wee's and poos, not a pleasant job!
Still no movement on the house, we've decided that if it hasn't sold by Amy's birthday we're going to stay and take it off the market, it's a bit frustrating 'cause now's the busiest time of the year for us, I have more spare time ('cause hunting has finished for 3 months due to lambing), we have lambing and kidding, the fencing season is just around the corner (that's fencing as in farm fencing) and we've got some to do, the vege bed is ramping up...the list just goes on!
Not sure if I blogged ages ago that we planted a paddock of turnips, well they are now ready for harvest, and we've even eaten a few, and have already put aside 60 or so for later. Only a few weeks ago, we had a meal where everything on the plate was either grown or rasied by us, very satisfying. And hopefully soon, we'll even have our own milk and cheese!
With regards to Connor, his signing is going really well, his volcabulary is quite extensive, esp with animals, to list a few, goats, sheep,horse, cow, bird, rooster, pig, dog, cat, elephant (a new one yesterday), and he also knows food,drink,sleep,toilet (only when we are going though!), biscuit to name a few.
Anyway, morning tea time, after which I think I'm trying to get the tractor going (might have to head into town and get more fuel though)
