  • Our Favorite Time of the Year

    Our Favorite Time of the Year

    We really enjoy the holidays, but to us, the “most wonderful time of the year” is kidding season!  Especially on nice sunny  days when we can run around and play with the kids outside. So far we have 9 kids out of 4 does with 14 does left to kid.  We’re going to be really outnumbered!…

    ZuZu’s Delivery

    This year we filmed ZuZu’s labor and delivery and edited the video for you to watch. Fletcher did a wonderful job doing the filming, but the camera isn’t always steady. Pretty amazing, huh? Have YOU ever seen an animal born?

  • Why We Bottle Feed

    Why We Bottle Feed

    There are many different ways to raise goats.  When we first had goats we let them dam raise. It’s a lot less work to do it that way, but you’ve got to be careful that all the babies are getting enough nutrition, which isn’t easy if there are triplets. Then we did some research on…

  • Height Challenges

    Height Challenges

    A couple of weeks ago I had a television interview in Indianapolis.  I had two segments on the show.  After my first interview, the hosts interviewed ex-Celtic’s basketball player, Walter McCarty. He is REALLY tall… OK – and I’m REALLY short! (And very glad that Jim isn’t 6’11”!)

    Spelling in Code

    Sometimes I want to ask Mom for something, and I know if she says no, the little kids will be upset.  So I just spell it out to her so they don’t understand. But now there is a problem… Fletcher, Greyden, and Indigo can all spell now! And even though Hewitt and Jade can’t spell,…

    Building a Business Takes Time

    I’ve been getting a lot of emails lately from people who want to support their family with a small business. My typical response is, “That’s wonderful! You won’t regret it!” Then they tell me that they need to start supporting their large family from this endeavor alone within the next 6 months. To which I respond, “Unless God…

  • Goat Family

    Goat Family

    When the baby goats are born, we separate and bottle raise them because for us it produces the healthiest and friendliest goats. But once the babies are big enough, all the female goats live together. Here is a photo of Victoria, Veanna, and Valley. Victoria (in the back) is the “Grandma”, Veanna (on the left)…

  • It’s Not All About ME

    It’s Not All About ME

    My goal as a mother is to raise my children to be wonderful adults that are hard-working, kind, and loving.  I expect them to admit their mistakes and try to correct them.  I expect them to reach out and help others.  I expect them to exercise self-control when appropriate.  I don’t expect perfection from them,…

    Guess What?!?!?

    Yep, our whole family was on the Today Show this summer! You know, the NBC show that airs every morning? (That is the something big that I hinted about in this post.) How cool is that? Mike Leonard came out to film on the 3rd of May, on a nice a hot day. Mike was supposed…

  • Playing in the Rain

    Playing in the Rain

    We’ve had an amazingly mild winter so far. It has only gotten below freezing a few times. The problem of course has been that it has also been an amazingly wet winter. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised because we had a fairly wet fall as well.  It’s a good thing that wet weather doesn’t stop…

  • Stress Reliever

    Stress Reliever

    Right now the Jonas Family is even busier than usual.  We’re entering kidding season (which means less sleep for everyone), we’re building at the new property (which means more traveling to check on progress), and we’re losing our employee (which means more work for all). This can cause everyone to be more stressed and less…

  • Where’s the Hot Air?

    Where’s the Hot Air?

    Every year, we need to “dry off” our goats two months before they are due to kid.  This allows them to put their energy into growing their kids rather than making milk.  While it is a very sad time for most of us because we don’t have any fresh milk to drink, the boys really…

    Growing Up

    I know that it’s my job as a parent to help my children grow up and reach their full potential. As much as I love holding and snuggling them, I’m not doing them any favors by trying to keep them little. But sometimes it makes me a little sad to see them grow. Don’t get…
