Animal Crackers - All about the KIDS!

I cannot even tell you how fun it is having so many babies bouncing around out there! And this is not even 1/2 of what is expected!!!!!  There are a few worries don't get me wrong. My biggest has been Hank. One of Lucy's Quads.. he is sooo tiny and was a little slow at developing. But he is doing better, and I think he is going to make it! He better I have gotten super attached to this little one :0)

Ok.. So Let see... I told you about Scarlet's twins last week. Then Sunday night her sister Rhett had the little girl "Betty Davis" Then Monday afternoon Jill had Triplets!! This is just minutes after she had them.
One boy and two girls. I named them Jack, Janet and Crissy :0)  Now some know those characters and then a few younger people have looked at me like HUH?  But common you guys know those names right? Three's Company of course...

Then just minutes after Jill was done - Lucy started having her babies! The first one was easy - and was all alone for like 30 minutes. Then here came the second. A super tiny baby that wasn't breathing, and too weak to get out of the sack. I had to help... I always freak and get so scared. But he started breathing and all though he couldn't move much or stand he was doing ok. Then it was clear that Lucy was in a lot of pain and having a lot of trouble with number 3... But finally after lots of pushing she had him... ENORMOUS baby boy. Then within seconds.. she started having number 4 - but problem. It was breech. That scares the you know what out of me. And Lucy was so tired by that time she couldn't push hard enough. I got her to calm down and then finally with a big push baby 4 was born, a little girl.

Here they all are about an hour later. I was too emotional before that to get any photos, but I finally calmed down...

Took me a while to come up with their names. And that little one really had me upset that he would not survive. But after some time Two boys and Two girls had names. Hank, Peggy, Bobby and LuAnn Hill - LOL  You know them too right? King of the Hill of course....

Here they are yesterday -
They are all doing really well. Even little Hank!!!

Ok.. now seriously You have too see the size difference in Bobby and Hank... Remember Bobby is a HUGE baby and Hank is a tiny baby... Peggy and LuAnn are normal babies.. all from Lucy.

Here is Bobby and Hank side by side -
I told you.. you said OH MY didn't you??? LOL

Now I really tried to get some photos of each of them, but it was not easy! These kids are everywhere, then nowhere, then here and then there. Bouncing all the way... LOL But here are a few cute photos I did get. I'll work on seeing about video's over the next few weeks to show off... they are really so fun to watch.

One of Jill's babies - Janet


And her sister Crissy

I thought this one was too cute - their tails are wagging like crazy :0) 

Got a great one of Hutch... this guy is super curious. He is into everything and gets involved in all the other babies groups. LOL

Starsky - he is really handsome. Very active too -


And here one of Lucy's girls - LuAnn


Isn't she pretty? I love all the markings on her face....

There will be more you know it! More of these babies, and more of all the future babies... we have SIX more Mom's to be ;0)

Hope you have a great weekend -
HUGS and

Ok, I spent weeks worrying about Tuco & now I'm going to worry about Hank, he IS so tiny!!! All the babies are gorgeous, I'm fascinated by how by variety of their markings. Looking forward to lots more pics in the weeks to come. Have a great weekend.

Oh your babies are soooo cute! I was showing the pics to hubby and telling him we could really do with a wee goat to keep the lawn down out the back and to keep our chickens company - I told him ithim would really cut down on all the time he has to spend mowing the grass - but he said NO!! How mean is that!

OMG so many baby goats and all of them are soooo cute. My fave is (you already know it *grin*) Hank! He is so tiny, I would love to see him in RL and all the others, too (of course). What a lot of fun (and work) for you.

I have so many comments about these babies I couldn't possibly fit them all into this space! Adore Janet & Jack's little tails! Starsky's fur looks as soft as velvet and LuAnn has been blessed with almost every colour going! So many cute babies and I can't believe six mom's yet to give birth, wow you will be busy. I enjoy these birth stories so much.
Thank you Michelle for sharing.
