Shane decided 3 kids isn't enough, so he brought home this kid goat! At first I thought it was a crazy idea, but I've grown quite fond of the little guy now. Kids named him "Flower" since he looks like the skunk on Bambi. We have to bottle feed him twice a day. The kids & I take the morning feeding and are responsible for taking him for a walk once a day. Yep, we have a leash for our goat and walk him like a dog! Our neighbors get a kick out of it, especially the day Bricker decided to bring the scooter and ride it while Madelyn had the goat on the leash. Well I'm not sure how many of you know much about goats, but they like to follow people. So naturally the goat took off in a run after Bricker on the scooter, dragging Madelyn down the street screaming! It was a sight to see!
Our little Tate isn't really so "little" anymore! He is growing like a weed! This kid doesn't know when to stop eating. He LOVES food! Tate has been so much fun, the kids still love having their little brother around. Madelyn's going through a fun stage right now too. The other day she asked, "Do you want to play hide in the sink?". I replied, "You mean hide & seek?" She said, "NO! Hide in the sink!" I got a kick out of it. Bricker is just finishing up preschool. He is so smart! He will start kindergarten in the fall. He also has tee-ball coming up, which he is pretty excited about.

I can't believe how big your kiddos are getting. They are so cute. I think your goat is cute too!!
We miss you guys. Your kids are adorable and so cute. Growing like crazy! And the goat story. That is so awesome! Only Shane would bring home a pet goat. Awesome! We need to get together sometime. How is the house coming? Aren't you guys trying to sell it?
Haha, that is so funny and so is stephanie's comment because her in-laws just gave her a goat and she doesn't think its very cute! I think she is devising plans of how to get rid of it. I told her "every child needs a goat" I don't know if its true but I think its funny you both have goats now!
