Busy times

Well kidding season is fast at hand. We are crazy busy with both Kelsee and I working and both also going to school. I just made batches of pachouli oil, and eucalyptus/spearmint oil soaps. They turned out beautifully and smell great. I am experimenting with some natural colorants. I used cinnamon in the pachouli and it gave it a warm beige color with flecks in it. I have had a lot of homework over the last week and I have room to breathe for a day, so I plan to make a couple more batches tomorrow. Kelsee has been updating the website and she added a counter for the kiddings that are coming in a couple weeks. You can see it at www.kinderkornergoats.com

Off to bed now. Sleep tight!

Hi everyone.

It is with great sadness that I dismantled the Christmas tree and put the decorations away. I am taking a small break in between homework for my master's program. I set some more eggs in the hatcher yesterday after moving out the chick hatch. 15/20 isn't bad. The little ones grow so fast. They sure are hardy. I will soon have to decide where to go with the growing ones. Looking ahead to spring and kidding season. I have kids coming in 29 days..but who's counting. Lol. We still have to give their shots and trim them one more time before they become too fat. We could feel babies kicking today. I love the fact that kinders can have babies anytime of the year. Such a great quality in them. I will be acquiring a couple new does soon that are bred for June. Such exciting times and it gets me out of the winter blues. Can't wait for spring. Hope the weather holds for our kiddings, we have been lucky so far.

Blesisngs,
