Our daughter, Jen, loves living in the country too. She and her husband and three kids have lived just eleven miles up the road from us for nearly five years. Being active in 4-H and FFA means there are several four-legged critters plus over twenty chickens on their farm. This afternoon, upon returning from Heritage Days at the Rodeo she checked in on her three very pregnant goats who are due to "drop" any time now. One of them by the name of "Lulu" greeted her at the window of the kidding stall and behind Lulu Jen noticed two adorable baby goats who were apparently just born. Lulu gave birth to twins (a doeling and a buckling) all by herself. They have been given the names of "Lily" and "BB King" . . . welcome to the family sweet things! And congratulations to Lulu, a first time mama.

Update: All the mama goats have "dropped" their babies. . . and all three had two each. In total Jen and Karah have added two bucklings and four doelings to their herd.Two were born breech and needed help in delivery. All are now doing fine. "Destiny" had nothing to do with her babies which means her they being bottle-fed . . . that's life on the farm!
Life is good!

The babies are so very cute!!! Congrats to Lulu!
Congratulations to a dear new mama "Lulu". You did a great job, your babies are darling.
So sweet! Love those little kid babies. It's wonderful Lulu did so well all by herself. That's what I love to read. :)
What fun! Did you know that our, dog BB is actually named BB King? So we have "cousins" with the same name :)
