It's hard to believe that fall has already arrived. The trees are changing, as are the shapes of some of the ladies around the farm. Natasha and myself are becoming rounder and rounder by the day and we have both slowed down quite a bit. I have been placed on bed rest to ensure our little piglet finishes cooking a little more before making her grand arrival. This is frustrating, but necessary part of the process I guess. We are still hopeful that the real piglets will arrive in advance of ours and we can get them settled before we have to focus on our own little one.
We separated Natasha from the other two last weekend and she seems to be enjoying her privacy and not having to fight for her food dish. We (rather Nick, with instructions) prepared the double horse stall and creep feeder for her to move into as soon as she appears to be ready, so the piglets will have a warm and safe space to meet the world. I have been sneaking out from time to time to check on Natasha and commiserate with her, as well as bring a few treats.
