    @Winnie: Umm, did you have trouble spotting them before? Anyway, as a Capricorn, I’m far too left-brained to give credence to astrology.

    @Mostlypurple: She had some udder sores. Doc believes it’s a staph infection and gave us some Chlorhexadine (sp?) shampoo to clear it up. We were afraid of soremouth, but none of the others – including her still-nursing kids – have gotten whatever it is so that’s unlikely…fingers crossed!

    @Kate: She was quite a trooper, but I think she started feeling sick partway and made her little honking unhappy sounds. She DID poop on Teri, though.

    @Kelly: I think we were both giggling the whole way there and back =)

    cute pics! too bad about the poop, though, that’s a pretty fine looking ‘76!
