And in case you're like me, I thought I'd share my favorite social accounts to scroll through. There's just something about watching baby animals that makes me smile. Before I know it, I've got the energy to conquer the world again.
Baby Sheep
Maybe it's because I grew up next to a sheep farm, but listening to Sandi Brock's sheep baaa and watching the lambs play is so relaxing. Through this winter it was fun to see if there were new babies every time I got on Instagram. (Even though lambing season is anything but relaxing for Sandi.)Now that the lambs are a little bigger and stronger, I love to watch them chase each other around the pens. They jump and skip and run just like little kids on a playground. Plus, none of them know which one is the leader, so they just run back and forth in an adorable swarm of cuteness.
Baby Chickens
I met Daniel and Danielle Hayden on the Why I Farm Roadtrip a few years ago, and have followed their farm since. Along with cattle, they raise chickens. Dan's Chickenology segments are sure to make you laugh, and you'll probably learn something, too. It's so cool to watch the little yellow fluffs turn into grown up chickens in less than two months.Baby Cows
If you've been following my blog for long, you know I'm a fan of Dairy Carrie's posts. Her feed is full of super cute calves. Prepare yourself for calves wearing coats, milk mustaches, and some adorable human babies, too.Speaking of cute cows and human babies, Annaliese Wegner has both. Like Carrie, she's a Wisconsin dairy farmer and mom. Watching her twins ride around the farm yard in their little red wagon while they all do chores literally melts my heart every stinking time.
I secretly hope some of Crystal Cattle's fashion sense rubs off on me every time I get on Instagram to see her baby calves. She's a charm bracelet designer and is always offering the best hair and makeup advice between pictures of Hereford cattle. Bonus, the calves always get creative names.
