Today is our first "Blog-Anniversary"! Hard to believe one year has gone by since my first post. I can still remember posting "Welcome to our Peaceable Kingdom" and wondering if anyone would read it. I didn't dare hope for a comment :) THANK YOU to all of you who read the blog, take the time out of your busy schedules to leave comments and for all the wonderful tips and tidbits you have shared with me over the last year. I am so happy to have met all of you and learned about your lives and how you live. I can only hope that year #2 is as good as the first :)
It truly feels like spring in the Northeast today. The thermometer says 45 degrees....yoohoo :) This jet was the only thing in the sky all day.
This is always a good sign that spring has arrived. We have five seasons in Maine. Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and MUD season. It's doesn't get to be a real mess unless it's 50 everyday for a week. Then the mud is a foot deep. With the gentle or sometimes not so gentle March winds and a slow-w-w-w-w melt, it dries up fairly quickly.
The ducks are quite happy. I couldn't get close enough to get a real good shot of them but they are definitely out of their "home territory" looking for a puddle. When they see me, they run for cover, and then struggle to climb the snowbank because they are in so much of a hurry. They are a riot to watch :) ** could someone please tell me how to post photos so viewers can click on them to enlarge them?**
"Ribbon"
"Lace"
These gals should have wide load signs on their backsides :) I expect they will both have at least twins or triplets. Delilah was not feeling very photogenic and refused to have her picture taken. She's not as large as these two but twins wouldn't surprise me. They are all very good Mom's and babies should be arriving any day now. I can hardly wait :)
All the pygoras are in full fleece. It is soooo soft and fluffy. Tomorrow is shearing day. Everyone will get a haircut, feet trimmed, vaccinations and de-worming. I'll be sure to post before and after photos.

Congratulations on a year! I enjoy your blog very much and have learned a lot here.
I cannot wait to see those babies!! They have to be cuter than all get out!! I am so glad to hear that you will have more mud than me....no offense of course:)
Congrats on a year! It's good to know there are others out there like us!
I'm excited to see pics of the babies. I work at a vet and I'm getting to see all the newborns lately. Very cute!
Yup, mud time. Yup, wide load goats. Hope all goes well for you and the mommas and the babies. Happy anniversary!
As for the enlarging photos, I don't know what to tell you. Mine just "do" without me doing anything special!
This is my first visit and had to tell you Im loving the photos.I wish you well with your babies :0)
It took me forever to figure the enlarging photo thing out. When you are given the choice of small, medium or large photo when you are uploading, pick large. I believe that's when mine started being clickable. Happy blogiversary :-)
Well, that would make sense because I save ALL my photos as large!
Congrats on the year! Those are some pregnant girls! We are in mud season right now.
We have the mud season here in WI also. Makes me crazy, a war you just can't win.
Poor Lace and Ribbon. They look so miserable....kind of reminds me of my last months of pregnancy. I had big babies so felt enormous. Congrats on your one year. I think I know one more problem with the photo enlarging. If you upload and don't move them around at all they will enlarge when clicked. However, if you need to move them don't drag the photo. Go into html mode and cut and paste the photo code to where you want it. For some reason when you drag the photo it will not enlarge. I learned the hard way. Oh and like the others said I upload in the large format.
