Time for a picture update : )

Warmed Smallest Newborn
I over slept this morning so I assumed when I got to the barn Bruce would already be milking.  Turned out he had barely started mixing feed because he had to do some work in the silo he hadn't planned on.  The silage freezes on the walls of the silo in winter and when the temperature is right it either falls off in big slabs (thats what happened this morning) or it makes the unloader hang up so it won't go around and throw silage.  Before he could mix feed he ended up scraping down the walls so the unloader would work.  I started milking myself and eventually he was able to help.  After breakfast he used the tractor and snow blower to open the driveways.   He also spent a bunch of time scraping down the walls in two silos and letting the door down in 1 so now he is ready for another stretch of cold weather.  Otherwise the day was a non event....a good thing.  Here is a picture update....at 2 weeks old : )
