jaxen has been acting off for the past couple of days
he is either getting sick or going through a growth spurt

i hate when he gets like this
i feel so helpless

apparently over night
jaxens pingus, turned into his penguin.
now the song has a WHOLE new meaning..

crampy and bleeding. :(

My orange and yellow roses came back :)

he is much better today. thanks for all the advice.
he is still FAT but not tight like a drum, he is eating and pooping and peeing.
acting more like hamilton :)

the other goats are all acting happier as well, like they knew something was wrong.
i am only giving the chickens cracked corn at bed time when i lock them in their run

jax wanted to wear his big boy pants today. i told him since we were going outside to tell me when he had to pee and we would take them off and he could pee on a tree. he didnt tell me. he told mia, who did not want to take him to pee. so he peed his pants. i took them off and he ran over to a tree and tried to pee. but had none left. then he danced around the tree singing "i pee on tree" we had to threaten him with a cat biting his pingus to get him to put pants on. we are horrible people. lol

i know it was not overnight, but it FEELS like it was. jaxens vocabulary is growing in leaps and bounds. he amazes me on a daily basis with what he comes up with. i also realize that jeani and i need to stop cursing like sailors. lol

it was sunny but not super hot
i spent the day working with hamilton. he seems a bit better today so i am hoping it is passed. i am so happy that he is drinking from the bowl.

the pool is still super cloudy, i put some stuff in today to hopefully clear it up a bit. but the kids loved it. jaxen was FROZEN, but would not get out. eventually he said he was freezing and asked to get out. he sat naked in my hot car for a bit to warm up.

between the early nap and the partial hypothermia, i am hoping that he will be asleep soon

i just love this.
