Thanks! Everything went awesome! I went out to check on everyone this morning and at 8 she still had her ligaments, but barely. By 9 am they were completely gone! Of course we have an electrician here trying to run power to our building/barn so he is making all kinds of noise. Daisy kept eating upto 30 minutes before she had him. And she chewed her cud between pushes. It was crazy! She tried climbing on my lap a few times, I guess she figured I could make it stop! Anyhow, she pushed great and very quickly! Less than 10 minutes of serious pushing and he was out. It was text book too, both feet and then a nose! Here are a few pics:

Aww he is especially adorable! Love the coloring, very similar to our Nigerian dwarf kid that was born 2 weeks ago.

Thanks everyone! We think he is cute, but then again we are kinda partial! He is our very first baby!

Well, today is day 153 for Sara. I'm seriously thinking that she is going to explode, poor girl. I sat out with her and Daisy for a few hours this morning and finally had to come in to eat lunch. I got in the house and she was screaming bloody murder on the video monitor. I went to check things out and she was just mad because I left. However I went a few minutes ago to check the monitor again (after eating lunch) and I saw something small and black moving on the side of the screen. After walking 5 ft closer I realized it was a chicken :rant I swear all my animals are out to torture me. Anyhow, here is a picture of Sara today and a picture of my daughter and our 3 week old buckling taken yesterday. No matter what the last picture brings a smile to my face. :love
