BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!

Ok Kimmy's let me have a turn at typing tonight and there's been a little news happening on the Rockin R Ranch lately, and I thought I'd capture here on the blog. Winter's coming, temperatures are dropping, corn stove is burning, animals are getting their winter coats, and the leaves have seem to left there homes in the trees and are beginning to fertilize the grass. Chickens are laying less as the seasons change, but still laying. So everything is going rather well. Today's the 3rd day of gray weather, I'm going to keep a running tab on this from time to time as the local news was talking about Nov. being the grayest month of the year...meaning the least amount of sunshine.

Oh yeah, back to my breaking news, well I'm not sure how to start breaking this news... I guess I should state that for some this won't be so late breaking but for others this will be rather new. If you scroll to the bottom of the post you'll be clued in big time...we've got some new pictures to share. Waaaaaiiiiit for it..... waaaiiiit for it..... GO!

















































YUP KIMMY'S PREGNANT!!!!!

The perverbial cat is out of the perverbial bag. Although the best place for a cat is in a bag if you ask me... but that's another subject. Sorry Dust Bunny.

And we found out this past weekend that we're having a BOY!!!! yup another boy in the Russell family... I alway's tell Kimmy not to get her hopes up for a girl as "Boys run strong in my family"... The due date is sometime the end of April... Jacob will be a month shy of 2yr's old so that should keep us quite busy.

We've known about the pregnancy for a while but have had fun just keeping it close to home and not spilling the beans. Today was the day for announcements ect. The reason for the unknown exact due date is that we had a scare with Kimmy having some heavy bleeding and a trip to the ER this past week (Thursday night). All is well with the baby and an indepth ultrasound at the ER facility told us we were closer to 13 weeks than what we thought was 11. So that changed the due date from May 11th to the end of April sometime... And once it was determined the baby was fine and dandy the lady doing the scans asked if we wanted to know the sex of the baby... OH YEAH!!! and BOY oh BOY it's a BOY! So that was cool. But due to the bleeding ect. Kimmy's been on bed rest all weekend and is going to be until tuesday at least....oh boy am I whooped. Monday brings a doctor's appointment where will learn more about what's going on...they gave it some large medical descriptions at the hospital but I had other things on my mind and didn't submit it to memory. But the Doc's at the ER said it's common to happen and even the ultrasound technician said it had happened to her as well with her pregnancy. So all is ok but a little unnerving non the less.

So that's the latest and greatest news from the Rockin R Ranch... more to come in the weeks ahead. Thanks
