So, you have been waiting for pictures eh????

Well, Hello again... long time no see.... hmmm that doesn't really fit... long time no chatter... on my part or yours I guess is more likely. I have an excuse though.... we have been away working and have not had a good Internet connection to be able to post up some stuff here...... even chatter is a trying thing on the wee bit of Internet I've seen. So, today I will bombard you with pictures.... LOL I hope you enjoy them... Let me know! I mean really... talk to me... that's why I have it so anyone can leave a comment... REALLY! So, this little guy above... not so little really. I took a picture to find out it was a gopher. From where I was standing he looked like a stump sticking up... and I knew there were no stumps in this yard!!!

Below is the first 2 bins we got up, in Outlook. If you look close you can see an extra window in the 3rd ring. This farmer wanted to be able to see if the bin was just full enough to cover the rocket air inside. You see the next ring doesn't have a roof yet either....
Then hubby went and built the whole bunch of 15 foot diameter roofs. Then we got to work and built them. I have to admit.... we were faster some days than others. We would put up 2 one day, 1 the next, then have a beautiful cool day and put up 3!!!! yes 3! then the next day we did 1, because my body said that was enough! So, bins are going up in bouts and spurts. But the 15ft diameter bins are all up now. On to the 18's... when we head back tomorrow.
Above is 4 bins across the south side of the yard. Below is the bins that go along the west side of the yard. We did have them in a better line than that, and there is one hiding behind the other 2 that are pulled out. We had to pull those 2 out because they were very unstable in the line. So, pulled them out to level them out so that it would take more to take them over.
This is what the South West corner of the yard looks like!
This is the 18 foot rows. This being the North west corner....

The North east corner. North being the sliver of hopper cones you can see.. on the left side of the picture. So, needless to say there is a damn good chunk of work to get done yet!
And here... the latest ultrasound pics.... very cool. Though I believe last times were much clearer on the the full baby body pics... but, I think baby was moving pretty good! Had a heart rate of 144.... so, it was up there...
Above is a full body but with a hand in front of the face.... the below one baby has both hand in front of the face I thinks.... Little boxer maybe? Or camera shy? :D
The next strip of 3 is really good... the top pic is the arm stretched out, the second is baby feet!!! so neat!, the bottom one is how baby is laying in the belly. Face down, you can see the spine really well. Baby is about 13oz. right now. And growing daily! :) I am getting excited... can you tell? Just a little maybe? :P

This was a really neat picnic table we saw at Dafoe. We wanted to go ask what they were asking for it but... the mosquito's were so bad I could roll down the window only long enough to take the pic... LOL Hubby went to look better but I was not getting out to get eaten alive!!! LOL

This is the first baby sweater I made. It's the rectangle pattern from the Better homes and gardens page. (Thank you Pauly) It turned out well.


And Last but not least.. remember those socks I told you about... The ones for my mom that were getting to be obscenely late for her birthday? I finished them.. they are in her hands now... so she can wear them on a chilly day or wait until fall when she will really need them! LOL I love the self striping yarn... it turned out beautiful!
Well that is about all that is exciting out there... at least for me.... I could ramble on more but... I will let you all absorb this first. How is that? LOL

Catch you all later!

Baby Belly

OK, some asked... elsewhere.. and just in case you wanna see it. Here is my 4 and a bit month baby belly. Remember, there was a round bit of jelly belly there before... so it's not all baby! At least not yet!!! LOL still have a long way to go!!!

Baby Ultrasound Pics

So, Here you go.... Pic of baby at 3 months (13weeks), inside :D. I think it is pretty clear which end is which! And according to the ultrasound.... we have an active little one in there.... but enjoy the pics will catch you later!

Doctor's and ultrasounds.....

Hey,
I went to the doctor on Tuesday. All is going well. She said to keep up the good work with the baby growing. So all is right on track.

Yesterday, I went for an ultrasound. That was great! The technician was wonderful!!!!! She showed me arms, legs, spine, face, heartbeat, and much more. The little one wasn't being very co-operative though... LOL jumping around in there... what usually takes about 1/2hour took more like a full hour... though I can't say I will complain about the extra time seeing baby!!! So cool they have this technology now... MOM was super excited to see!!! I have pics for hubby who was working on the farm and at home and couldn't get away. Dad is very excited to see pics too... according to mom who said he sounded excited to see! When I get home I will scan the pics and show you all... they are neat... not the clearest.. but still super neat!!! better than nothing!!! Which is what they used to get!

OK. After the ultrasound we went to see my auntie to show her the pics. And see her new flooring... beautiful flooring in her house.... anyways... while we were having tea she told us about a used baby stuffs store right by her place... so we went over after tea to take a look. I bought a couple of those nighty sleepers and some nice diaper type shirts... will show you again when I get home. We went to Costco and had a hot dog for supper.... I know not the healthiest but I had been craving one for over a week... so there I had one.. then we went to Winner's and I bought a sleeper set that had the sleeper, the diaper shirt, a pair of footed pants, hat, burp cloth and a bib! Too cute in the sweetest green!!!

So that is my excitement.... I know... Baby nuts.... Will have socks(mom's socks) to show you soon too I hope!!! Then I will be knitting some baby stuffs... I hope!!! LOL

Talk to you all again soon!!!!

Now.. great fun!!! Went off to the Sask. Stitches Conference for the weekend! Had Classes on knitting from Lily Chin. Was great to meet Lily and visit with her. The weekend was very fun too!!! Mind you the classroom we were in was very warm!!! First day we sat in the middle and it was too warm... second day we sat at the back in front of the fan!!!! Good move.. as I think I wouldn't have made it through the day otherwise. :)
