He he he! I'm sneaking over there from OKlahoma and snatching that goat!!!

She is a beauty, and I'm gaga over spots.

Congratulations on a beautiful girl. Did you dip her navel in Iodine/Betadine?

Just came in from milking Patricia again. She does NOT like it but I know it had to be done. We got out a LOT more today than yesterday. There were a few times she stood still so I'm hoping she will eventually get use to being milked and be calm, at least for the most part.... I got rope burn, putting my hand in a not so smart place, lol.

@DonnaBelle - She truly is one of the cutest spotted babies I've ever seen! My heart just melted when I first saw her, hehe. ....Some people do dip and some don't and this time around I didn't. She's doing really great too!

Yay! Ok, let me back up, hehe. All this time, Patricia's udder has been quite hard, at least on that one side I've been trying to milk. There were areas that felt like marbles, YOUCH! So anyways, my hubby has gotten involved and had milked her a couple times today and massaging that side of the udder. When I went up there this afternoon/evening she only had one little lump left! I am SO relieved! I was even able to get Cookie to nurse from that side, for a little bit and then she went back to the little one, LOL. Patricia may have an odd udder but I think she's going to do just fine. I'm sorry I haven't gotten pics up yet. It's been pretty crazy around here. I'll try and get some tomorrow. Oh and DH will be working on a stand, YAY! I SO cannot wait till it's done and start using it, YEEEE!
