Adore
I knew it. When I got to the playground today…
Aw! Magnethe is a mother. A proud and sweet mother. And even though people were saying she was going to have two kids, I knew. I knew it would be three. And now there are altogether six goat kids running around, causing havoc at the playground.
Funnily enough the little white one with the dark head is the girl. Mathilde’s white one with dark head was a boy. Her only boy. Magnethe’s white one is the girl, her only girl. The two others are boys. And you can see one of them looks quite a bit like Nougat. Magnethe’s are darker though, so you can still tell them apart from Nougat and 3B. And then her last one is beautifully brown all over.
They don’t have names yet. Kurt asked me what their names should be. I said that it was something to think about. He said I should think about it till tomorrow. I’m not sure if he actually wants me to name them, and I’m not sure I can. But we’ll see. Any suggestions?
They are so cute that it’s almost impossible to comprehend. And certainly impossible to describe with these funny things we call words. But don’t worry. I have about a million pictures waiting. You’ll see.
You’ll all see. Mwahaha.

Hooray!!! the little guy in the middle looks like a Brownie to me :))) the girl looks like a Milla (hehe), Lilla or Maggie and the one in the front looks like a Line to me (cause he’s got such a beautiful black line on his back. but I’d pronounce it like Leeneh). So these are my humble suggestions, but we all know that it’s a long and interesting process to think of proper names & I think you can decide best, cause you’ll be able to spend time with them, see their personalities and stuff ;) I’m very happy for Magnethe, you & us, who will get to see more eye candy in the nearest future! thanks for sharing :) Yay!!! :)

Oh, yes – Brownie is good for the middle one. How about Twinkie and Marzipan for the other two? Seem to have “sweet” name theme going on here. What an honor for you, Lasse to get to suggest names. They are just sooo cute.
Mads won’t know what to do when all six of them come out to play!

What an honor – I’m terrible at names but definitely one should be named after you – the little boy should be named Plume! I like the name Marzipan too. This is so exciting! Thank you – I have been waiting for poor Magnethe to gove birth – she sounded like she was really have it hard yesterday. Yay for baby goats! I am still partial to the little ones with the dark heads and white bodies. Maybe her name should be S’more! Heehee!

Well one of them should be named after you. But if you feel shy about suggesting that, pick three names that are most special to you.
The babies are adorable! And Magnethe looks a little tired there but she must be so relieved to have it over with. Actually Magnethe looks like a total princess…she’s so beautiful.
Six goat kids…amazing! Can’t wait to see more pics.
