I thought I'd pop out to the barnyard and see what Sweet Potato was up to this afternoon. It's been a month or so since her last update.
Just as I suspected.... she was eating hay. Pretty exciting. You can barely see Princess Leia behind her.
And she's filthy from the rain and mud. Not really looking like a baby anymore, is she? She's a very quiet calf. Hardly ever makes a peep. She has been sneaking milk off of Princess, so she's not really into bottle feeding any longer. And finally she's interested in hay! Took her long enough!
Looks like it's going to get chilly up north of us tonight! We're expecting a high of 71 tomorrow, but then it's supposed to drop down into the low 30's and 40's starting Sunday, after a bit of rain on Saturday. Damp And Cold = Brrrrrrr!
She's a dirty little Sweet Potato. :-) That's cute that she's bumming milk off of another mama!

she is a cutie, i think you should have named her "elf". i just love that movie, where he is a full sized adult surrounded by all the elves. that is what she will be like..how cute will that be?
have a nice chilly weekend, i suspect you will whip up some home made hot cocoa, plow the lower 40, make 20 new cards, sew some aprons, make up some homemade goodies for alan, all before i wake up tomorrow. please bottle that energy for me would you? xoxo

So happy to read "little" Miss Sweet Potatoe's update. She's adorable and what a sweet little lady she seems to be (I hope.) More photos anytime you can.

Would love to see a photo (of any quality) of her sneaking milk from a Dexter, just to see the size comparison!
