We had a very eventful weekend last weekend. Fun, but busy busy! I went to a baby shower on Saturday that was absolutely cute! Lots of fun baby girl stuff. Margaux went with me and was pretty good, except for a short stint when she needed to go down for a nap.
Then we had dinner with some friends that night. Margaux wants to play with the bigger kids so bad, but right now she is settling for watching.
When we returned home, my father-in-law (Pappy/Grandpappy) knocked on the door to tell us our first lamb was born. Matt got dressed and went to the barn. Sally Pearl had a baby girl. They laid her on her side, and low and behold a baby boy! Twins!
The next day, Hannah Montana had lambed. Twins again! This time two girls. Our original flock of two sheep is now six! Both Momma's are being good Mommas. Babies are healthy and starting to hop around. They are so cute and soft and cuddly. They are Suffolk/Dorsett mix. Suffolk sheep are solid black at birth, but Dorsett's are white. That is why the babies are speckled. I have video and more pictures to come. Our new ewe, Lammy Gaga, has about 6-8 weeks left before her lamb (or lambs) arrive.
Sunday and Monday was consumed with us purchasing a new truck. Monday I also was able to visit a friend that welcomed home a precious baby boy. Her son Austin is adorable and it is so crazy how quickly I've forgotten how small Margaux was just 6 months ago.
