New Members on the Homestead!!

Exciting news!! We have 2 new members on the homestead! Say hello to our goat kids!

Welcome Posey!

Welcome Violet!

Lily had them sometime between Friday night and Saturday morning. I've been checking on her multiple times a day the last few weeks because I knew she was heavily pregnant but wasn't exactly sure of her breeding date, so I wasn't exactly sure of her kidding date. I knew she was showing all the signs that she was getting close though. We had a trip planned for Saturday and Sunday for my daughter's 10th birthday, and I just had a suspicion she may go into labor this past weekend. But imagine my surprise when I went down to check on her Saturday morning and there were two freshly cleaned newborn kids! Thankfully I have some wonderful family that kept an eye on them so we could still go on our trip. Other than that, we've not had too much going on here lately. But it's getting warmer and I'm about to start planting seeds for the garden. Make sure to keep checking back because I'm going to try to document my seed starting adventure. So far I've not had a lot of luck in this department. I've killed more seed starts than I've planted. I usually give up and just go to the local nursery and buy my plant starts. However, this year I'm really wanting to grow at least a few from seeds. Wish me luck!!
