Meet Samson

Yes it has been some time since I posted, guess one can blame......life. Brother is doing well with his arm in a cast and he only has just over 2 weeks left- woo hoo! He has done awesome-he has the most amazing attitude just taking on the world as a 'righty'. He only missed 2 baseball practices, he has been out there every week, even though the only thing he can do is practice catching. He has not said "I can't" because of his cast, his spirit and attitude continue to amaze me.

The house is still coming along. Insulation starts this week soon to follow drywall.....meaning the hours of painting are almost here. So anyone who reads this and lives in driving distance please join the painting parties with me!!!
Our newest member, no we do not have another child-at least not the human kind- Samson, born a week ago, furry small and black. He is a calf whose momma didn't produce milk, therefor he is a bottle fed calf. Imagine the joy of our oldest-she is in heaven. Thought I would share a few pics and a video if I am smart enough to get it posted-enjoy.
Notice J running out of the pic-that was about 2 seconds after the picture of her feeding him, he pulled at the bottle and she took off -no more feeding for her.

Okay, a couple of questions....
1) I thought that 'naming' the cows was forbidden ;-)
2) How often does Samson have to be fed and who gets the pleasure of the 2 am feedings?!?!?

You are right 'naming is forbidden' guess the guy that makes the rules can break the rules. But the name he picked was vetoed by the Princess ;-)
No 2AM feedings, but he is wanting to 'sneak' him in our backyard.....seriously
