bottle-fed babies

It's time for baby bottle calves again! 
Landen could not wait to get his first bottle calf and now he is 5x blessed with these bottle-fed babies. 
We are very proud of Landen.  He gets up at 6am every morning on his own and goes out to feed them by himself.  Then he feeds them again after school.  Sometimes brother and sister help, but most of the time he is on his own.  It takes him about 45 minutes to get them all fed.
Since there are 5, all of the kids and I (since they allowed me to be the next in line) got to name one.  We have Jumpy (Landen), Small Fry (Nathan), Cinderella (Teresa), Baa-Moo (Rachel), and Sammy (me). 
We went to Runnings this morning and bought some supplies to make things a bit easier, like these bottle and feed holders that hook on the fence.  Hopefully that will cut down on feeding time. 
One bottle calf is a hobby, but Landen has got himself quite a job right now!
