Meet Olive.

August 24, 2018 by Adrienne

Meet Olive. Daughter of Abram and Opal, born eight days ago. She weighs 10 pounds, is an escape artist extraordinare, and has less than stellar skills at maneuvering a forest.

We’ve had to go searching through the depths of the forest for Olive at least once a day for a week. Opal is a first time momma and Olive is giving her a run for her money.

Stellan is in love, Ruby’s convinced she shall never own goats when it’s up to her, and I’m thinking that gray on Olive’s head is just a sign of what’s to come for both me and Olive’s poor mother Opal. We have had gobs of rain lately, ticks are around in a massive fashion, and all of these treks into the woods have resulted in multiple tick bites on everyone. Multiple for Sterling means several dozen. Wretched bugs, I tell you.

Next up: Hazel. She should be due very soon.

    She is cute but sounds like a lot of work. Haha!! I am terrified of ticks.
