Life in Wisconsin

So much has happened over these past couple of months... Bryant and I have opened a horse boarding facility here on the property and have named it Grandview Stables. Bryant's hoof trimming business is going well, and keeping him busy. He has also taken on a new hobby. He now is working on being a horse trainer. lol We have a 9 yr old Arabian who is not broke at all but is a very fast learner and eager to please. Bryant started working with him and then decided him being the cowboy he is should get on and ride him, I have never been more scared in my life. The thought of both of us being in the hospital was a little much. (me having the baby and him in a full body cast) Thankgoodness my prayer was answered and noone was hurt, but we did get a good laugh.

Joey has been potty trained for sometime now, we thought that time would never come. Now we just have to work on the no peeing in public. (county fairs, at the park for play group, in front of boarders) This kids has no shame. He is a good big brother and has taught his sister how to deffend herself at least from him.

Aubrey is our little princess (who am I kidding...) she is a little scrapper and nobody better mess with her. She can deffinately hold her own. She is an animal lover like her Mom and is obsessed with horses like her Uncle Dustin. She is with or on the horses out here every chance she gets.

I have been doing well and am glad to be done with this last pregnancy. After these past nine months I am not looking forward to growing old. I felt like I was eighty and you should have seen me walk you would have thought the same thing. But now it's all over with... My delivery was amazing and painless, almost like a fairytale :). Wyatt Ammon Hess was born on the 10th of October. He was 7lbs 9 oz and 20 1/4 inches long. He has been a wonderful addition to our family and a great baby. Joey loves his baby brother and Aubrey loves his ears. (Don't ask) She is like a little Mom and lets me know as soon as he starts fussing.

After only 6 1/2 months we now have 2 dogs, 1 cat, 2 cows, 1 sheep, 3 horses, and several chickens. I don't think I left anyone out. I have really enjoyed the animals over the past couple of months... the have helped me through move. And have been very entertaining.
