March/April Kids

 This is a follow up post to the previous one.  If you missed it make sure to go back and look at it for updated conformation shots of the January/February kids.  They are getting so big!  I had to split them up because there were too many photos for one post.  I definitely failed at getting conformation shots of these kids (it's almost impossible when they are this young) and the light was fading fast so a lot of them were blurry, but you can still enjoy how adorable they are!

First up is Amethyst and her twins.

Nursing her twins.  It's so weird seeing my baby girl being a mama to her kids.
She is such a pro.  You would never guess she is a first time mom.

Her younger buckling.
So cute with those same blue eyes.

Amethyst being photogenic.  I love her beard!

 Her youngest.  I can't get over how cute he is!

 Amethyst is looking so good!

They tired out quickly because they were playing the whole time I was photographing the older kids.  I should have taken their photos first, but I knew it the main herd saw me they would go into the barn wanting food where there isn't enough room or light for photos.  So I let them rest and moved on to LeeAnn's kids.


LeeAnn's buckling was being uncooperative so hubby put him on the table, but he was too busy trying to figure out how to get down to pose lol.

So I gave up on conformation shots and just went for cute....

Cute was not a fail.  They are adorable!

Zoom!

She is so cute. They love cinder blocks.

She was standing weird.  She'd just gotten shocked by the electric fence. :(

Awkward attempts at conformation.  The doeling.

More awkward. The buckling.

My favorite picture of the buckling.

My favorite picture of the doeling.

Then LeeAnn had to show them how it's done lol.

She's such a poser hehe.

Watching over her kids as they play.

Last, but not least, Georgia's kids.  Getting pictures of the doeling was such a huge fail.  She is so skittish.  She hides under the feeder because she's scared of the other does and kids.  I feel sorry for her.

This was the only one worth sharing and it's not very good.
She loves grooming her brother and chewing on his ears.

 Her brother on the other hand is very photogenic.....

 And silly.  Love the tongue.  He is washed out in this photo.

 SO cute!!  His coloring looks more true to life in this one.

 More tongue and more washed out color.

 When he came out from the overhang his color popped in the sunlight.

 You can see his color better in these last ones.

 That's all for now!!  I wish I could play with my kids all day, every day.  They are so much fun!

Jackal Puppy Pictures

Does anyone remember how freaking adorable Jackal was as a puppy???  Soaked from playing in his pool.  He loved Frisbee!  OMG soaked Jackal puppy straight out of the bath!!  He LOVED his pool!  He loves going fishing with us.  Adorable just isn't a strong enough word!!  Those ears!  Sleeping on hubby's chest.  Catching toads out of the pool the ducks made nasty lol.  Spoiled rotten!  Sitting by the wood stove to stay warm.  Seriously spoiled!!    If I was on the couch he was piled up on, next to or behind me (like above).    Rotten and he knows it.  Just because I can't get enough below are some of my favorite pictures of Jackal over the years.  I was cleaning my horse tack and he wouldn't move... so cute!  That was a fun walk down memory lane.  I need to get some current pictures of him.  I've been so bad about not taking pictures lately...

Garden Update

 Our first pumpkin from the garden!!! It is 24.6 pounds!  It is a Yellow of Paris pumpkin so it's not supposed to be orange.  Isn't it awesome?? The garden has done so well.  I'm so pleased with it.  I've lost count of everything, but we've gotten at least 38 acorn squash, 12 butternut squash, around 20 spaghetti squash, a bunch of yellow squash, cucumbers and zucchini,  as well as miscellaneous other squash.  We've gotten a tomato, a bunch of okra, two watermelons and four eggplants.  That's only the beginning.  There will be a lot more to come. Check out these pictures. See the acorn squash that was eaten on?  That's from Scuff, our resident box turtle.... Luckily he decided he's not really a fan of them because he hasn't eaten any others, but he LOVES cucumbers.  Did I ever tell you guys the story about Scuff and how he got his name?  I got in my car back in April to head to work.  As I was backing out of my parking spo...

Day 2 With Amethyst

Gambar
To my surprise Coral didn't get up when we went in. Coral and Amethyst are doing great! I'm still going to do a post to show a video of her labor and birth, but I'm having to figure out how to convert some files, so it will have to wait.  I'll just share pictures and video from today with Amethyst.  Your baby is not a pillow hehe. Coral is still tired, but they are both doing great.  I LOVE watching Amethyst play and explore.  I forgot how much fun goat kids are.  I LOVE her racing stripes on her ears. We gave them the first day alone together to bond, but today it was time to start socializing Amethyst so she doesn't end up feral like her mom.  Coral doesn't like it, humans still stress her out, but she didn't fight us.  She just watched closely and talked under her breath to her baby.  Hubby giving Amethyst a cuddle.   Ammy doesn't like being held, but she quickly gives up struggling.  She will get used to it.  I couldn't tell rig...
