Now that the excitement is over and they're up and nursing I can tell you guys the story.
John calls me at work and says you need to come home NOW Frida is in labor.
I said some not nice things, told my ASM I had to go NoW and left.
He said there's a kid out.
I said and?
He said it's black and white.
Is it a buck or a doe?!
I dont know. Its big. Really big. Oh look there's another foot.
I am panicking at this point trying to get in my car. I work an hour from home.... then he hangs up on me. After saying he only sees one foot!!!
Ages later he calls me back out of breath.
"Another black and white. It was backwards and tangled. I just stuck my hand in there and rearranged it" (me
) she wasn't breathing ( 
) so I swung her like you showed me. Still wasn't breathing so I ( 
) gave her a kiss of life. She's up and nursing. They're both nursing.
I said "What's the first One? Is she done?"
He fumbled around and says buck and it's got wattle.
Soooo!!!! I finally got home. They're strong and big. Breeder was surprised she mixed up dates and has apologized about eight times.
Glad they're healthy.
Welcome to the world "Oopsy" and.... well I haven't named the buck yet. His dad was "Breaker" I'm thinking of calling him Big John until he goes to his new home.

Placenta finally finished passing about 30 minutes ago. It was in 2 pieces but it's all there. She's got some bleeding but it's slowing down. She's up, eating and drinking. Kids came out hungry and vigorous. I'm off to bed!
