Who is that in the pic?

My friend Kathy stayed up until 5 AM last night waiting for the birth. :baby04: She dated a guy who came from a cow family. He even took her to watch a birth one night. For some reason she didn't marry him. :shrug:

Congrats from two old bags from St. Louis!

Congratulations, Jeff!!! What a cutie!!

Much to my chagrine, we had to head to town for a bit. The first thing I did when we got back was check the cam. I'm bummed I missed it, but I'm looking forward to the still shots.

Congratulations again to you and Kahlua!!!

That was my mother in the picture.


I was off to the right when the calf was under the mother. She fell down shortly afterwards. Managed to get her to suck on the teat some. We will go down after dinner, milk out Kahlua and feed the calf. So Kahlua will be with her calf tonight, and away after the morning.

Dang! I fell asleep and missed it!

Thank for the pictures, and someone from another board, where I posted the link, took some, too. So I can show the kids, when they get up.
