OMG!!! I'm flipping out over that cute llama and lamb picture!!!! You have the BEST pictures! Congratulations on your little twin girls. Did you put that picture on your FB page? I'm going to share it. It will be viral momentarily, lol.

I like Jovan. Good job Marlow, I was at a total loss for a Russian/Eastern European J name. FYI those "stan" countries like Afghanistan and Turkmenistan are central Asia. Just fun facts.

Name suggestions for the newest ram. This was made more challenging by the fact that there are no Russian names that start with "J" and I honestly had to look up to figure out which countries were considered Eastern European! (Yes I am geographically challenged! ) Ok, any "J" names for Eastern European countries are a challenge to find. Apparently they aren't huge fans of "J" names!
Jaxith ~ Hungarian and means kind-hearted
Jedrick ~ Polish and means strong, manly
Jovan ~ Slavic and means God is gracious

Sorry I couldn't suggest more options. Maybe you'll like one of these choices.

Still haven't name the poor guy....although I like Jedrick. Do you think the J is pronounced with a J sound or a Y?

Not sure really how the J would be pronounced. Would have to research it.

ETA: Appears it is pronounced YEH-drik. So the J would have a Y sound I guess.

Bridge read my mind - Jovan!
Yes...most eastern european (& scandinavian) countries pronounce the "j" with a "y" sound.
SOOO cute!

What is going on here right now you ask? Let me tell you......

At this particular moment I hear sheep feet running around on the front porch. It's Inna, one of the Evil Twins, and she's probably chasing the cat. There is also a chicken sitting on the window sill and peering in at us. Remember Hot Chick the house chicken? Yeah, it's her. She got moved outside last week. She spent a couple days pouting in the coop, but has now ventured out into the big world and has found her house. And she wants back inside.

*sigh* What do I do to these animals?

Wouldn't life be boring without our crazy critters?

 

[Southern by choice]

oh PQ, we do it to them... it's not there fault! (Big sigh)

We made the mistake of allowing a chicken to come in the house to lay her egg..in a laundry basket... didn't take long but somehow she "told" others. The next thing you know we had hens lined up at the door, and then they had to have "their particular basket"... I know it sounds to fantastic to believe but it's true.. even have pics somewhere. I will never do that again.

Now the issue of Mc Flurry.... yep, I am ruining him too!

Then the dogs.... never allowed any dog on the furniture or beds.... til my Pyrenees....

I AM A SUCKER in my old age!

I can "hear" the sheep on the porch! Absolutely love it!

Southern...that is too funny about your chickens!!!!! Cracked me up!!!

 

[purplequeenvt]

And she is still there......

I hate to be mean, but she has to learn to be a real chicken someday. Right?

Southern, that is so funny!
