  School Started on the 18th of January and I love it!!! First we just sat in the hall learning the school song and the skiwi song and a couple of other things. Then we started working on the skiwi consert which took place last Wednesday... I was a blue gold and white ballarina. Which was awesome because there was only one other person like me!
The Tuesday before that was the moopoo and that was so AWSOME!!!! We had to leopard crael through red mud then lie flat in the hot sand. Next we had to swim through a dam and then lie in another mud puddle. Then we leopard craeled through the long grass and last but not least we had to jump into a pit full of cow poo and dirty muddy water. Luckly there was an fire hose to wash us off with. It was sooo much fun!!! I would do it again now if I could...

~Milking~

   I've been begging Dad to let us milk the cows and finally he started to build the milking shed! Its a very smart milking shed as well..... Its got tree sides and very fancy feeding trof  Dad built himself... there's a short race and a water trof and well lets not get into too much detail... Any way now that that's finished all we needed to do was get the right cows and train them. That was easy enough Dad and Grandpa went to our herd and picked two. The one was Savannah, the foster mom to Kriegoff, she and her baby came to grandma's house where the milking pen is with the other cow Dolly {I named her} and her calf  Elle. Now the training began! It was a long and tiring process but after a few weeks of training we are getting about two and a half leters of milk a day.We milk them in the after noon at about 3 to 4. Dolly is the better dairy cow of the two but they both good. Now I can drink all most all the milk I want!!! I love milk!!! {hee hee}


Milking tips:

1} Don't let the calf get to the cow first.
2} Don't let the cow kick the bucket over.
3} Be careful of the back legs.
4} Move slowly.
5} Don't leave a jacket or something draped over the fence. {Believe me I know!}
6} Use milking balm.
7}Don't put all the milk in one bucket. Milk a little then pour it into another bucket you keep far away from the cow.
8}Get help. Don't do it on your own.
9}Get into a rhythm.
10} Don't play with the calf!

Krieghoff and Rigby!

As you know there were twin calves born on Thursday, one black and white one and one brown and white one. Sadly the mama cow couldn't look after both of them and took the stronger of the two, the black and white bull calf that we decided to call Rigby and left the weaker of the two calves, the brown and white bull calf that we called Krieghoff to die in the middle of the bush. { and our bush is not that fun to be in at night when you a weak calf all on your own } Dad thought that may happen so we went to look for Krieghoff on Friday after school.{which in my case was till 10:30 that day} We found little Krieghoff all alone with one mama or brother in sight. Wait! I'm missing one important fact. Thursday night one of our other heifers calved and sadly her calf died while she was giving birth. So Savanna which is her name had all the milk for her baby that had died and poor Krieghoff was abandoned so Dad took Krieghoff in Sherk , which is the name of my green pickup, and put him with Savanna in hope that she may adopt him. Sadly she didn't! But Krieghoff has to drink and Savanna has to be milked because she is engorged! So we put her in the race and milked her. Savanna had never been milked before and was SO good! She just stood there and didn't even fight! We had to milk another cow, Princess and MAN was she a PAIN! But Savanna was as good as gold. We took the milk that we had from milking Savanna andput it in a bottle to give to Krieghoff. Poor guy! He was SO hungry! We have been doing that for two dats now and have pretty much mastered it. If you want to strengthen your hands all you have to do is milk a cow. That is the fastest way! Krieghoff is so cute!  He comes up to you and sucks your hand. You can lie down with him and he comes up to you for cuddles. I think I have fallen in love with this little calf. He is half the size of the other calves we had Saterday. Poor Krieghoff!
