1st post for wed.
































When i arrived a baby goat was waiting for me...she was not even a day old. She is adorable!











She is so white and pure! She stumbles when she walks,its so cute! They keep her inside and in a diaper...except when she is outside she is bundled up in a blanket.
There is one more due today but they dont think she is really pregnant. There is another one due Friday.
I fed my kid goat(raspberry) and i also got the chance to feed one of the one week old too!
I rode patches(a Tennessee walker ) by myself and trotted him...it was a lot of fun!
Then we learned how to fill bottles to feed the goat. The dog drank the milk that we spilled. haha!!!!! I learned how to use teamwork to fill the bottles with a funnel...and get a nipple on the bottle.
For our first free time i practiced goat showing with my goat(Mon Cherie).
Then we went across the street and learned about how bees help the garden. Cucumbers have to be pollinated 8 times. Then we came back to the house and looked at a bee exhibit. Interesting.
Then we washed some wool we shaved off yesterday.
We ate lunch and had a bunch of fun...haha...a lot of laughs.
Then I my goat next, i only milked 0.9 pounds. Not as much as i would have liked.
Now im blogging and next im going to help make cheese. Then i get another free.
I have to go now...because everyone says i am taking to long and need to go.
By the way...Sorry i fsome of the paragraphing is not correct the computer wont let me fix it. Also sorry if some of the words are black...it wont let me change those either.

    I now have a new appreciation for all the work that the bees do to give us cucumbers!
    You do a great job with your blog. Thinking of being a writer some day?
