They're here!
Our sweet Elsie finally had her THREE babies this week.
(first family photo...1 hour old)
They are sooooo precious!!!
The children did a great job assisting with the birth.
It was amazing!!
Elsie went into labor right by the side of the fence so everyone was able to witness the miraculous event.
There's something pretty special about new life.
These little babies are adored...
And cuddled...
And nuzzled...
And well cared for.
They are definitely not lacking attention!
I hope they grow up to be as sweet as their mommy.
She had 2 girls.
(June...born first on the 1st of June with very light blue eyes)
(Fawn...who looks just like a little deer)
And a bouncy big boy.
(Oats...a rough and tumble type, much larger than his sisters)
The plan is to keep them all!
Because...
We just love them all so much!
I'm thinking these won't be our last baby goats.
Time will tell...
It seems we have some future breeders on our hands here. The kids have amazed me with their willingness to get right in there and handle the whole operation themselves. I'm so proud of them and I love watching them enjoy their farm animals! It's their thing.
To be continued...
"Blessed shall be the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground and the fruit of your cattle,
the increase of your herds and the young of your flock."
