Adam kept coughing as I took their picture.



Being silly for the camera.



I got up at 6am to exercise. Got to talk with Jared for a little while. Jacob and Adam were up around 7:45. After getting ready for the day we went outside to take care of the animals. The boys enjoy feeding the cats. Jacob always carries some hay to the goats with me. Well, this morning we found that Lockjaw (our goat) had died. The boys kept saying, "That’s so sad. I’m gonna miss her.” Jacob said, “I think her’s in heaven.” Adam said, "She's really tired. I think her's sleeping." I moved her into a stall for the time being. Clarence escaped and was searching for her while making a lot of noise. Back inside Jacob drew a picture of a goat and said it was for Lockjaw. I made pancakes for breakfast. We watched a Clifford video after breakfast. Kenzie called and I talked to her for a little while. Then Mom called with an update on Grandpa. He is not doing well and has been also diagnosed with MRSA and its in his lungs. The boys played with legos for a while. Then they played in their shelter (area above the bed). We took Jacob to school and got home shortly before 1:00. Adam and I played with legos for a while. He asked me to build Mater, Lightning Mcqueen, and Frank (Cars characters.) Then we played doctor and took turns being the doctor or the patient. Adam and I also played school. He pretended to be the Daddy who was taking me to school and picking me up. We watched Bob the Builder while I did my afternoon run. After taking care of the animals we headed back to school to pick up Jacob. Jacob said, “Mommy, I missed you so much. I missed you all day.” At 4:30 I tucked Adam in for a nap. Jacob and I played with legos. I talked with Jared who was visiting a lego store in NC. Just before dinner I woke Adam up from his nap. He was very grouchy and didn’t want to eat anything for dinner. We spent most of the evening playing with legos. Aunt Bippi posted some funny videos on her facebook that the boys enjoyed watching. Both boys talked to Daddy on the phone this evening. After tucking them in bed I got a call from my Mom saying that my Grandpa, age 93, had passed away. He was a wonderful man and I will really, really miss him.
