BABIES!!!! BABIES!!!! BABIES!!!!
That was all I could splutter in my cell phone to my husband when I checked on the sheep this morning. What?? Babies? Baby what? Finally I got LAMBS! BABY LAMBS! out of my mouth and he came running. Not only did a ewe have twins last night, but TWO ewes had lambs last night and they both had TWINS!! I have four of the cutest lambs! Ram lamb and ewe lamb for each ewe. I spent most of the day with them. I let the other two ewes out of the enclosure and sat on a milk crate, just watching and marveling at the miracle before my eyes.
I took lots of pics, but have a brand new I-phone and can't figure out how to get the pictures off. When I do, just get ready for an overload of pictures. I am a sheep grandma!

Our DD, DSIL and our 8 year old grand daughter and 10 month grand daughter came out at almost dark to see the new lambs. Our 8 year old grand daughter was thrilled. The 10 month old almost started walking, to get to the sheep. They re coming back on Friday, to play with the lambs.
My husband is in love with the lambs. He knows we will keep the ewes, the rams will be for slaughter. One of the ram lambs is a fawn brown with white hind feet and a white tip on his tail. DH is heart broken that we won't keep him.

I know, new phone....is no excuse. But in my defense, I haven't had a new phone in 6 years. I got notifications of updates on my old phone and they wouldn't update. I got a message that my phone was incompatible with the update. So I got a fancy-fangled I-phone and I have just completed the first 24 hours with it. Have to carry both phones right now, my contact list wouldn't transfer and I have to input each and every phone number contact.
Man can I identify with replacing old phones... trust me when I say better to at least have the old one still viable. On my previous one, it completely died and I had to start over from scratch. 
The up side is it eliminated all the useless chaff stored on it without me having to worry about it
Now on a happy note:
waiting anxiously for the pics to follow! SOOOOO happy these births went without a hitch! you must be about floating on a cloud... especially since you've got your kids and grand kids to share in it with you 
Perhaps with the one ram lamb that DH likes... could he be a replacement for the one you already have? just a thought.
Congrats again!

when i went from my old flip phone to the phone i have now i went thru heck and back trying to learn how to use the darn thing so i totally understand. i still don't know how to use all the things it has to offer. i pretty much hate a phone that is smarter than i am! so ok i'll accept your excuse for now but i am waiting...
