I am so excited to share with you our latest news.....we are now the proud owners of a share of a dairy cow! Yep, you read that right. Nope, I haven't lost my mind. :-) Hahaha! I AM super-excited about this though. The twins and I along with my mom & step-dad packed up this morning and rode to a nearby
small farm to taste fresh milk. It was amazing! I wasn't sure how we would like it but it was great and the kids loved it too. Carson let out a big approving belch at the lady's kitchen table. That's our boy. LOL> On a side note- He was also completely naked when I went in to get him this morning. He seemed so proud for having figured out how to get everything off. I hope that doesn't become a habit or it's one piece jammies from now on. Back to the milk, we will pick up our milk once a week. There's just something so nice and real about getting fresh milk in mason jars. I love fresh, local foods. In addition to the fruits and veggies we get in the summer of course, we now are getting fresh milk, eggs, and our freshly ground whole wheat bread weekly. I also get local honey when I can. We are slowly transitioning to a more whole, local diet and I think the kids will be healthier eating this way. I really believe that. I am hoping it will also help Carson's eczema. He has not had an outbreak since we started using unscented goat's milk soap I get from a lady locally as well. That's all for now...I'm going to make some applesauce for the babies. We'll see how long it takes to determine whether it's easier to just buy it. :-) Hope everyone has a good weekend!
