Viewer discretion is advised part 2

This is ridiculous-WHY has this happened to us 3 TIMES!!! So this morning around 6:30, Jay and I were loading our couch onto his truck to take to my sister who is moving today. The kids were out there with us, shoes off and all (bad idea). Our nice neighbor (the one that killed our first snake) came over and we were just talking out in the dirt while the kids threw rocks and ran around. He asked us if we've seen any rattlesnakes since our last one a month ago and literally 30 seconds later, Anna starts screaming and flipping out and runs into the house. We thought it was just a bug she saw, but nope....a baby rattlesnake!!! She was screaming, "A snake, a snake! I stepped on it!" I can't believe that the whole time we were standing there (facing away from the house) it was behind us slithering in the dirt RIGHT next to our porch. Anna was just walking to get in the house and she saw it. I don't know if she really stepped on it, but she later claimed it's tonge touched her foot? AAAAHHH AAAAAAH AAAAAH AAAAAH I am still shaking--those baby rattlesnakes are deadly! We are REALLY counting our blessings today. Jay had the nerve to ask if we could keep it. I told him he was crazy so he came to the rescue and chopped it's head off. Poor Anna, no five year old should encounter 2 rattlesnakes, no adult for that matter. The very first one was last fall, and Jay's mom was dropping her off from preschool. She rang the doorbell, and I answered it but she was running away yelling, "SNAKE!" and there it was curled up against our front door asleep! So that one and the 2nd one were huge diamondbacks (scroll down to the first "viewer discretion is advised" to see the 2nd one). Seriously how often does this happen to people , I guess we're crazy people who live in the desert. Here are some pictures, I wish I would've gotten video...

Going in for the kill...After it was off, the head kinda jumped off the ground twice and tried to strike, mouth wide open and all...
