It was quite peaceful sitting and reading a book with Alice last night (I was reading the book silently, not to Alice...), but it was clear she wasn't going to have babies soon. So I went to bed. I came back out to the barn at 2am, and she had just pushed out her second baby! I got them all toweled off and under the heat lamp, and she laid down and pushed out a 3rd baby! Well done, Alice!

Now up to 5 mamas with 12 babies for the #BabyGoatCountdown

But seriously... this is... a LOT of babies! Wow.

And we've got a snowstorm about to start. How fun. I will check on them a lot in between zoom meetings...

Today will require a lot of caffeine to function!

Another snowstorm. Sigh.

Repeat after me: We need the moisture!

But you know what is completely amazing? Coming out of a snowstorm into a barn full of cute animals, and getting to gently stick your hands into a warm snuggle pile of baby goats and give them scritches.

4 of the babies were snuggling with the llama!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

The llama seems to be the best place to snuggle and hide when it's time to go out in the snow back to the smaller warmer barn stalls...
