Princess Peach was ready for dinner before Katie even reached the house. The little goat kept mouthing at Katie’s face, giving her a clear message: the person who makes the bottles had better get moving.
Katie laughed that Peach seemed to have figured out she was the “food lady.” It was a small change for a kid who had only become a bottle baby a few days earlier. Peach still spends time with Bella and her brothers, Mario and Luigi, but Katie brings her in for bottles and an indoor routine. On this night, there was another new experience waiting: Peach was going to meet Kimmy, the smallest of her dog sisters.
The meeting had a family connection. Bella had once been a house goat too, and Kimmy knew her when she was little. Katie hoped Peach and Kimmy might eventually share a lap. By the end of the evening, they did—but Katie made clear she was not ready to leave the pair alone together.
## Peach Knows Who Brings the Bottle
Peach’s first night inside had been quiet. Katie said she had not needed to deal with the dogs then. This evening, Peach needed her bottle, Kimmy wanted to inspect the newcomer, and Katie was watching how both animals responded.
Bella and the boys were settled in for the night while Peach rode with Katie toward the house. Peach’s interest in Katie’s face made the drive amusing, and Katie took it as a sign that she was hungry.
Katie had started bottle-feeding Peach after watching Bella repeatedly let Mario and Luigi nurse while turning her daughter away. Peach had gained weight, though less than the boys at their latest weigh-in. She had also begun suckling from the bottle better and allowing Katie to feed her more often. Evenings indoors give Katie another chance to work on that routine.
At the house, Katie introduced Peach to Kimmy. She called the dog Peach’s “smallest doggy sister” and wondered whether Kimmy remembered Bella. The question was playful, but Katie had a vivid memory of the two animals together.
When Bella was a house goat, Katie once thought she and Kimmy were getting along quietly. Then she looked down and saw Bella’s leg in Kimmy’s mouth. Bella seemed unfazed. Katie joked about the incident as she watched Kimmy meet Bella’s much smaller daughter.
Back then, Katie said, Bella had been the only goat in the house. Peach’s arrangement is different. She is learning to take bottles and spend nights indoors while still returning to Mario and Luigi during the day. Meeting Kimmy is one more part of becoming familiar with the house.
Katie gave Kimmy room to sit with Jonathan while Peach spent time in her lap. Both could stay close to the family without being pushed into constant contact.
## A Curious Kid and a Familiar Dog
Peach moved near Kimmy, and Katie watched them closely. At one point, she encouraged Peach to give the dog a little head bop. Peach did, to Katie’s delight.
It was a funny moment in their first meeting. Katie said Kimmy might spend much of the evening with Jonathan because Peach would be in her lap. She was letting the two get acquainted while she stayed with them.
Katie also answered a couple of things viewers might notice about Kimmy. The dog was wearing a bark collar that Katie said vibrates; she clarified that it was not a shock collar. Kimmy also has alopecia.
Katie imagined Peach asking, like a curious child, why her new sister had less hair and wore a sweater. Then Katie supplied the answer herself: Kimmy has alopecia, and she is beautiful. Peach did not ask any questions, of course, but Katie’s pretend conversation gave the introduction an affectionate, funny tone.
## A Bottle for Peach
Once they were inside, Katie turned to the task Peach had been requesting since the drive: making her bottle.
Katie said she was using red-cap whole milk for Peach and warming it in a bottle warmer she had bought this time around. She said many people who bottle-feed goats consider that milk a good option. The bottle warmer made preparing Peach’s dinner easier for Katie.
Peach drank while Kimmy hovered nearby, apparently interested in the meal too. Katie reminded the dog that the bottle was not for her. Jonathan was cooking chicken, and Katie joked that everyone seemed to be getting dinner except Kimmy.
The moment showed Peach settling into her new routine. She had arrived hungry, received a bottle from Katie, and had her first encounter with a dog who had known her mother. Kimmy was nearby as Katie watched them both.
Peach’s indoor evenings are only one part of her day. Katie still wants her outside with the goats, playing with Mario and Luigi and spending time near Bella. The house gives Katie a place to offer bottles and help Peach grow familiar with the surroundings she may encounter on their upcoming trip.
## Two Spots on Katie’s Lap
Later, Katie turned down the lights. The excitement of the introduction gave way to a quiet moment: Peach and Kimmy were both resting in her lap, each with her own spot.
Earlier, Katie had predicted there would come a time when the two could sleep there together. She had not been sure it would happen that very night. Seeing them settle beside her felt like a success.
Katie was careful about what that meant. She said she was not comfortable leaving Peach and Kimmy alone together yet. They were calm enough to snuggle while she was with them, and for a first meeting, she was happy with that.
Peach is taking on several changes at once: learning a bottle, spending evenings away from her brothers, and discovering the sights and companions inside the house. Kimmy has her own place in the family and her own history with Bella. Their first evening gave them a chance to begin getting to know each other.
Peach’s day started among the goats. By evening, she was riding toward the house, making it clear she wanted dinner, and meeting a dog who had known her mother years before. She explored, delivered one little head bop, drank her milk, and finally curled up beside Kimmy in Katie’s lap.
It was a fitting moment for Bella’s daughter. Bella had once been the house goat Katie remembered with Kimmy. Now Peach is learning that routine for her own reasons, with Katie watching what she needs each step of the way.
**Which moment made you smile most: Peach recognizing the “food lady,” her head bop for Kimmy, or the two of them sharing Katie’s lap?**
