It was almost bedtime...

...when we looked out the window and saw a new baby calf out in the pasture.

That's why some of us ran out in our pajamas to get a closer look...

I didn't think a calf could get any cuter than this guy who joined us a few weeks ago...



but our newest addition is giving him a run for the money



but then I do have a soft spot for brown cows


and look at the sweet white socks
(I love white socks even more than I do brown cows)


everyone came out to see the new baby




even Ollie


and Bayson

(he almost looks a little worried that the new calf may take his place as most beautiful -

not to worry, Bayson, you'll always be the Prince of the Farm).


Sometimes it was a little hard to get a good shot of the new baby

because THIS GUY kept jumping in the picture


and this guy.


The Three Amigos


The Three Amigos, and a mom.


Did you ever feel like a cow when you were pregnant?


Wonder what she feels like?



Sorry, m'am. No offense. You look just lovely.



Yes, you're cute, too.



And this guy even has talent.


He does giraffe impressions.


Now back to our featured cutie...



I could take calf pictures all day.


But lucky for you...



My evil calf-photographing nemesis showed up to thwart my plans.


Meanwhile, our hero, Super-Piper, is off saving the day by chasing away the evil NeighborhoodDogWhoLikesToTormentOurRabbitsMan




So our dastardly villain puts her evil plan into action



the calves are naively unaware of the danger that lurks only a few feet away


"Hey is that a cow over there?" they innocently ask.


"It's kinda short"

"Let's go check it out"



"Hey, are you a cow?"



"'Cause you're kinda funny lookin'"



"And whew, you smell AWful!"



"NOT A COW! NOT A COW!"



And our evil villain prances triumphantly back to her lair to plot her next plan to foil Calf-Photographer-Girl's efforts.

So, Calf-Photographer-Girl is reduced instead to taking pictures of her daughters chasing grasshoppers...





which, as it turns out,




is actually a lot more fun.
