Nana's calf is here!!!




It was like Christmas this morning! We woke up to a new baby girl calf! We were all so excited to see her, especially the kids. Nana had her during the night so we all missed the delivery. We named Nana's calf, Isabella, after our niece who is currently visiting from Utah. She is excited to have a cow named after her. Our rabbit also had her babies during the night. We were unable to get a picture of them today because Mother Rabbit covered them in straw and her fur to keep them warm. We also did not want to disturb her bunnies very much because last time it turned tragic and none of her babies survived. We are hoping and praying that she will take care of them this time, so we are keeping our distance from them.
