Lori Baby Update.....

Yep, Ruby had here first check up yesterday and she weighed in at 10 pounds 4 ounces and a length of 21 inches and all are doing just great!!! Well, unless Lori is eating most of the dinner cause Jonathan was heavier at his first weigh in so go figure but either way all are just great as you can see....
Just for the record I would like to apologize for any trouble my namesake may cause here in the near future. It was NOT my idea to put my name on a hurricane and I am not responsible for any damage it/I do even if it is to something that needs it (like some of the billboards you see along the road) and there it is again "BILLboards" I can't win, but hopefully I will fizzle out without a fight but to tell the truth that is not in my nature.....:)

New Baby Update.......

This is Logan Matthew, the brand new baby son of Joey and Heather Burke born Thursday July 23 at 7:00 P.M. weighing in at 8 pounds and 13 ounces and 19 inches in length. Logan has had some rather serious complications to this point. Heather is being released today, Logan is off oxygen and is no longer has an IV. His "Billy Ruben" number (Jaundice) is high for his age so if it
goes down or stabilizes the he might get to come home tomorrow (Monday). If this number continues to go up he may be transferred to Indy.
Let's all keep Joey and family in our prayers and be there if he needs us, good luck kids......

Visit With Our New Mom.......

Marie and I were able to visit with Lori, Eric, Jonathan and of course Ruby Ann today and as you can see Lori and Ruby looked just fine, happy and sleepy, you decide which is which, she has Lori's face and Eric's hair (after looking at his head I think all ) Eric looked tired and hungry and Jonathan was, well, just a proud big brother and full of energy as always. They all expect to be home sometime Sunday if all goes well and I am sure it will, so you can send them your best wishes there. I have closeups of Ruby but you can see them quicker on the hospital web site. They did get the flowers from the farm so the room didn't smell like baby, well you know.......:)
P.S. Lori was in the new birthing center and the rooms were really the babies goo goo gaa gaa......:)))

All are doing fine and expected to go home in a couple of days......

Another New Farm Family....

This is Luanda another "Family to Be" here on the farm. She has gotten so used to me checking on her egg progress that she hardly moves when I approach her nest, she posed well for the photo....(most girls are hams).....:)

Malloy

Ooops, I almost forgot a picture of Malloy.......:) Quack on Dude.........

New Farm Family

This is Mallory, and as you can see, by Mallory's nest, she has decided to raise a family here on the farm (a most excellent choice and I know from experience) within spitting distance of my house!!!! Lee was trimming along the new split rail fence today and discovered her. Her and, let's call him Malloy, had been hanging around my yard off and on for about two weeks and then just disappeared, until now. If this was a dairy you could say we have some quackers and milk but it's not so let's just say we have another happy family here on the farm......:))

"The Smile In The Sky"

About Duggy his Crew & FriendsDuggy 'The Smile in the Sky!', is a cartoon character of the famous Douglas DC-3. Like all airplanes, trucks and boats, Duggy is a collection of parts - he does not have the ability to fly or move. However, with his crew and other dedicated humans, Duggy 'springs to life' with a heart of gold. Duggy is everyones' best friend, always there with a smile and kind word. In Duggy's world the glass is always - "...more than half full!". Yet with that positive attitude and giving nature Duggy often over- commits to his friends and gets himself into trouble. But, as we all discover in life, if you treat others as you would like to be treated - you find yourself with a great friends ready to help you out. These friends of Duggy are the relationships that he is blessed with as they always come through for him and rescue him from his danger and worries. Mitch's dream (is now reality) and it is to touring the country's Air Shows as a real-life "Duggy - The Smile In the Sky!" Currently Duggy's primary mission will be to attend air shows throughout the USA and promote positive character building traits. Mitch has always had Duggy's core message as being, "Know good from bad, right from wrong, respect others and chase your dream!" This is summed up with the simple mission statement: "Live your Dream!"
I gotta tell ya, if I were ever to attempt a flight in an airplane it would be this one, but I am sure that ain't gonna happen not with me conscious anyway.....a great machine and even greater mission...
SMILE.....:)
