Lambs!!

Harriet the Sheep won the "lamb race" this morning with a gorgeous set of twins! We have one ram lamb and one ewe lamb.

This is pretty much what I saw when I went out to check on her this morning, only the lamb was quite a bit wetter:

He thinks he is hot stuff.

Ramlamramlamramlam!
The ewe lamb is a lot more conservative. She sticks by mom most of the time.

Harriet is a fantastic mother
Harriet could not have picked a better day to have her lambs. It got up to 45 degrees today! Unfortunately, tomorrow is not supposed to be so nice, so I decided to make coats for the lambs. (We had some cria coats, but they were WAY too big for them.)

Few things are cuter than lambs wearing coats.
Looking at our other ewes, I believe we will have two more lambings this week -- Betty and Marge appear imminent. Sally looks like she wants to hold out for a little while longer.

So, we have lambs on the ground! Does that make it officially spring yet?
