Babies, babies, babies!

Both Lilly and Lacey had their kids this weekend!

Lacey had twins; Midnight Lace and Chantilly Lace. Lilly had a single doeling; Dawn Lilly. We are so lucky and they are so cute.

We have already sold all three to a wonderful family in Sterling who will be picking them up in 4 weeks. The Dill Family has small children who want to bottle feed the babies and can't wait until school is out so they can start.

It feels strange to be giving them up when we have spent the last 5 months bonding to them and watching them grow inside their mothers; to witness their births and feed them and cuddle them for the next 4 weeks. It will be a sad and joyous day when they go to their new homes. I have faith that they will be well cared for and that this is the right choice to make. We can't keep them and they will have a wonderful home. As small as this heartache is for us, it provides a small taste of what Birth Mothers must go through. I have so much love and respect for the Mother who will someday choose us to raise and parent her child.

Sometimes he is a mellow baby; having a nice time and just going about his business.

And other times, he gets a sudden burst of energy focussed in one direction. He is driven, wild, free!

Then, 'Holy Crow, there is a fence in the way! Hard starboard, engines back full!!'

'Full speed ahead!'

Music to soothe the soul

We figured out how to add a play list to our page! It is located at the bottom between the posts and pictures (in case you need to find mute quickly!).

We will continue to add songs that we like; if you have recommendations, please pass them along.
