Heading to Emily's to get my doeling. Excited!

My daughter and I are on our way to Emily's. I am so excited about getting my doeling today. She is the sister of my Zephyr. She is so cute. We have been thinking about names but haven't decided anything yet. Anyone want to throw some names out there? She is the chocolate doeling in the For Sale section.

It just started snowing. Hope it isn't snowing the whole trip.

Oh, how cute! Just because there is a picture of her posted already, does not get you off the hook for posting more.

Have a safe trip.

We picked her up a few hours ago and are headed home. Looks like we will be home before the storm hits us. We just stopped and ate at Cracker Barrel in Sullivan I think.


We REALLY like Baby Ruth for her name! Thanks Sherry and Minelson :-)
and thanks everyone for the name suggestions and the well wishes for our travel.

Her sister that we got last year is Zephyr which means west wind so we looked up east wind and were thinking of naming her Eurus. We decided that we like Baby Ruth better and will save Eurus for one of Zephyr's kids.

Well, we are home and settled in for tonight. I was also getting a boer doeling from nearby home but something happened on their end and can't get her until tomorrow. So, Baby Ruth is in a crate in the living room tonight all by herself. :-( She is fed but not happy to be alone.

The GP puppy Gracie and her mom Lambie are also in the living room. I fed Gracie her bottle and she is sleeping soundly. She is a little pig and ate 3 ounces in one feeding twice today. I really need to take some new pics of her to post.
