Bottle Babies
We eased out into the pastured then called to the goats who for some reason where in the barn on a beautiful warm day.

It took a few times calling their names but we finally got their attn.

It was feeding time for the new bucklings we brought home Monday. Lilah, my lead doe, leaned down as if to say to the baby it was okay to go.

Immediately they both came running.

I have a good crew to help feed these growing babies.

Hey, Mary, send your brother over here to look at my baby I got from him with Lilah. She is all grown up and gorgeous! Lilah is on the left and her baby we renamed Violet is on the right.

They are SO cute and Steven is getting a world of an education!!
Angie,
I can't believe how big the boy is getting!
I wish my kids were exposed to farm life. That's what I get for living in the city!
You have a new fan in my daughter, I think.
She loves animals of all kinds, and is fascinated by all of the creatures that you have on your farm.
She would consider your house the Best Summer Camp EVER.
I will definitely send Tom by to have a look. So, you have added bottle-feeding to your daily list? Because you don't have enough to do? You're killing me here.
Bottle feeding kids is the best! What fun!
Good lookin' goats Angie! I can't believe your little one is already that big!!!!
*sigh* Virginia is always about 3 weeks ahead of spring here in New England. So envious...!
