Good morning!

We will be performing morning calf weigh-in around 8:45 am Eastern if you wish to watch! We will post the baby weight in the comments of this post after we have our results.

April and calf look great from early morning observations! April's walk and stance are almost perfect again. Her leg twist was the equivalent or rolling your ankle slightly -- "walk it off". Creating news stories out of such a minor thing is a *bit* of a stretch... but she is a celebrity so headlines sell. Nothing else to report at this time - we continue to celebrate the calf's arrival!

Birthing Story:
"What I found astonishing was the meaning and purpose behind every move April made during delivery. This was evident when calf's face and head emerged from her body, but baby was not yet delivered. April meticulously and gracefully cleaned out his mouth and nostrils to remove any mucus that could cause obstruction, all made possible by her long tongue. At that moment, my faith in "design by nature" was completely reinforced." - Jordan"

I am not sure how accurate that weight is. I was able to watch the weigh in this morning and evidently the scale was off balance and they had to try three times. Baby did not like that and was struggling to get out of (I think it was) Jordon's arms.

I think they are going to have to get a different way of weighing him if they want to continue. :-)

I prefer to believe that my faith in "design by God" was completely reinforced.
