New Babies!

   On Jan. 14th, my goat Hattie had triplets! A buck and two does. Hattie has to be put down because she has a diease that is passed through the white blood cells. My sister Lydia's goat, Lavey, had to be put down too, so we had been praying for two girls to replace the two we lost. We pulled the kids and are bottling them since the primary way the disease is passed on is through the milk. Lydia named her baby Minnah, which means blessing in Arabic and I named mine Hadiyyah, which means gift. These two girls really were a blessing and a gift. It's a miricle that they are alive. The buck was born first and the girls were stuck, both coming at the same time. At one point, both of their cords came. We thought they were going to die, but they made it and are doing fine.
   Mom's goat, Holly, had triplet boys today. Two of them are a little weak so we bottled them to get them started. We gave them back to the mama and they are doing some better.
   Holly's daughter from last year, Ellie Mae, is due anytime. She isn't getting very big so she probably only has a single. 
   Today we worked at the auction hall. Mom stayed with Holly and came later after the babies were born. We got all the lotting done so now we're ready to picture. 
   Well that's what's been happening here. Keep checking back! There's always something exciting going on!
