This morning after going out for the usual Saturday morning routine we headed over to Patty's (a tech from my work) to trim her pig and goats hooves. We were wrangling up the pig and I was trying to get Jacob out of the way as the pig ran through the barn and I stepped on her son's little toe. I said, "I'm sorry Colton, He said, "thats ok" then his sister who is 6 said, "Yeh, his feet get stepped on all the time". Time for ear pluggs, Jared grabbed both back leg of Bud and he and Patty flipped over the big pig. He squeeled loudly. I trimmed the back feet first and then the front. I took a while because my nippers are small so I can only do a little at a time. The pig pooped and then peed right into Pattys shoe. Then I trimmed his 4 teeth with the nippers. Her little goat Branson was right in our faces the whole time, chewing on my hair, and even jumping up onto Bud with all fours. We took a little break and watched Jacob and Colton played in the sandbox. The Patty and I trimmed the goats hooves. The goat is easy to do. My hands are sore and blistered from doing the pig. After the trimming we headed home. Jacob ate a banana and drank some milk on the way home. After he took a nap and then ate some lunch we headed over to Moms house to go swimming. It is in the 90's today and very hot and humid. We stopped at a couple garage sales and salvation army on the way. Then we stopped for ice cream cones. I gave Jacob some of mine. It was so cold he didn't want more than a couple bites then he was done. Melissa and her kids were at my Mom and Dad's when we arrived. They were all going swimming. Kenzie was there too and then Vik and Rody came a little later. Jared took Jacob in the pool and then sat him in the dolphin. He had fun. This was Max's first swim in a big pool and he really liked it too. I took Jacob over to slide and then Dad swang with him on the swing. He had so much fun with Papa. Then Papa attatched his little car to a rope and pulled him all over the yard with his feet up. After Jacob took a short nap and had dinner we went over to visit with Grandma. I trimmed Taylor's toe nails and hair out of his eyes. Jacob walked over by the hot stove and I said, "No No, Don't touch" and then Jacob said, "Don't touch". We went back to Moms for strawberry shortcake.
