Mommy Farmer and Her Adorable Baby Cows

I can't believe I'm actually getting these on the blog only 24 hours after they were taken! That doesn't happen enough. :) My sweet baby cows (milk cows, not beef cows!) were a big hit last night while out "trunk or treating". They were great at saying "trick or treat" and "mooooo!" and "thank you!" at each trunk. After EVERY single piece of candy Macey got, she'd hand it to me and shout "open it! open it!". It took a while for her to catch on that she was out to collect candy and take it home (for Mommy to eat when she's not looking). :)

I'm posting this video so that you can all see what these girls put me through! Macey INSISTED on going down the big slide. Addalyn didn't want to go unless Mommy went with her. Wanting to do what I can to make my girls happy, I decided to take them both. HUGE mistake. I had to walk straight up a flight of inflatable stairs, with no handles or rope to help us up. A few steps up, I realized that either A) my arms were going to fall off from carrying the cows, B) I was going to lose my balance and slip and fall straight back while holding these two cows, or C) all of the above. I decided to put them down and shove them up by their little buns until we got to the top. Wow. Addy freaked out and started screaming the second I put her down, which of course caused Mace to lose it. By now the LONG line of kids and parents were all watching and being highly entertained by this 5 minute struggle of the farmer and the now screaming cows to make it to the top of the slide (I didn't realize there was a crowd until we were finally done). Once we finally made it to the top, Addalyn didn't want to go down. Mommy made her go and despite her blood curdling screams, I like to think that she highly enjoyed it and truly appreciates her Mommy for making such a fool of herself, just to give her
babies what they want. ;)
