whats going on over here

 PREGNANCY UPDATE~
so far all on schedule,everything is ok and baby is kicking all the time.I do NOT like the evening at all.My body gets restless an very achy,I usually do my workout about noon and go for a walk about two for 20 minutes so I am getting at least 40 minutes in a day.Drinking plenty of water and watching what I eat.Ice cream is starting to sound really good on a daily basis,I better watch that!I go for my next check up on the 15th,I will be 24 weeks on that day.

I think I have gone a little overboard on buying some baby clothes ALREADY,is that possible?I have a lot a couple of drawers full of sleepers and onsies for 0 to 3 months and a few outfits up to 3 to 6 months but nothing over.My nephew was born in December so he is outgrowing all of his clothes and I then have bought some to help them on getting rid of them and saving me the cost in return.
We have
bought the baby bed along with a matching dressor and some extra items like the wash tub and a few odds and ends.I am now watching for a swing and pack and play with the changing table on top.

We bought Zachary a whole new bedroom set(full size bed with end table,desk, and dressor).We have been busy painting his room and slight shade of gray and we will be going to pick out new carpet this next week or maybe even this weekend.I have been cleaning closets,LIKE EXTREME CLEANING.
This past weekend my sister in law and I joined in a booth at our local parks department to have an inside garage sale.We were BUSY WORKER BEES,I am so happy to say with the things I had we made some $$$$$$$$.She and I both hurried up to sign up for the fall sale BUT instead we are buying 2 booths instead of 1.Ever since then I have been cleaning rooms.SIMPLYFYING things around this househould!

 Chickens are growing and getting out and about in the yard further everyday.The leghorns are in with these guys and when the get out the seem to get lost everytime so we listen to hear for the little cry of one and go find her to rescue her.They seem a little crazy,but to us that is what a leghorn is a crazy white bird!!!We are at a total of 65+ birds now.Since the schools have been hatching all leghorns we have been getting the calls to come pick up the birds for free.Of course that is worth it.I will be selling some off as they get bigger and keeping some for white eggs.
There is nothing calmer than watching chickens just roam around the yard in a flock pecking at the ground  sometimes you can catch one chasing after a moth just as fast as she can.
