Cow-A-Bunga

Today we went for a little visit to Faith and Jaxon's school that they will be attending this year. Although they don't officially start there until Monday , we were invited to come on over and see a cow (named #4, for right now), get milked! I'm not sure if Faith made the connection, but at least she knows EXACTLY where milk comes from. Since we've been home, I've already been asked where my utters are. Faith thought that it was pretty neat that the cow was the same age as she is, and she's reminded me that we need THREE servings of milk a day. I really didn't think that she was very attentive during the presentation, because she was looking around at all the kids, but apparently she put her auditory skills to play.

Sitting amongst some of the two and three year olds...
If you look closely, you will see that he is actually milking the cow onto the concrete (right in front of the kids). Poor #4!
Now he's doing it the right way...it a matter of seconds that cow produced all the milk seen in the jug above...she was pretty engorged! I don't miss that feeling!
Jaxon was off in his own little world...and, you see the bruises on his head? He thinks it's fun to head-butt....we're not as thrilled as he is!

HAHA! Linebacker in the making! Tell him he's not supposed to lead with his head! I'm sure Shawn will tell him that :).

That's what Keith's forehead looked like through every season, although it was a little lower.
