It's early days yet, but our first 2017 kidding season achievement is unlocked! CAE test results came back on Monday and everyone is happily CAE-free. I've also felt Delilah's babies fluttering two days in a row. This time of year I can't help squeezing and thumping all the girls' bellies like ripening melons. I also felt a little kick inside Nubbin the other day. Jezebel is hiding hers like she did last year (she better not crank out another minuscule singleton, the little slacker!), and Tigerlily doesn't want her belly touched. She may have to change her views on this as we get closer to kidding time. 
First due dates are May 6th for Jezebel and Delilah, then Nubbin and Tigerlily are due on May 21. However, there is some question with Nubbin because she had one of those weird five-day cycles and was bred both times. I think they usually take on the second cycle, but I wrote down May 15th for her as well--just in case.
