Gracie is officially in the home stretch! She’s due in less than a month now, and it’s safe to say she is getting very round and looking a bit uncomfortable. Those last few weeks of pregnancy can be tough, and she has that familiar tired, worn-out look that many mamas get near the end.
Even so, she’s still her sweet, gentle self, quietly going about her day while carrying that growing little calf. It’s amazing to watch how quickly her belly has grown, and every day it feels like we’re one step closer to meeting the newest member of the farm.
Her target due date is April 11, though with cows it can always be a little sooner or a little later. Around here we’re checking on her often and getting more excited by the day. A new calf is always such a special moment on the farm, and we truly can’t wait to see who she brings us this year!
