Oooh...Ivan is a good name too! Nice and STRONG!
I LOVVE LOVVE LOVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEE those baby curls! I'll bet they're sooo soft! How cute...they're all so stinking cute!
I know about those angora cuts...I'm not allergic...but when I'm trimming mine...if those hairs get to flying...I'm feeling it! Their fiber gets EVERYWHERE! I end up covered in it!
I hope the family health situation improves enough to get back to what you were doing! LOVE to spin! And it sounds like you all had a lot of variety of things! WOW!

Lambie #3 is now officially named "Ivan the Terrible" not that he is terrible or anything. It just "sounds good" I guess. 
No more babies this morning, but there are several that are so close.
Galadriel, the wide load, is so full of babies that they are starting to poke out (not through) of her sides. Yesterday you could see and feel someone's leg and today it was a back. Poor girl is so uncomfortable.

Meet Dmitri a 14.5 lb crossbred ram lamb. He is 3/8 Border Leicester, 3/8 Romney, 1/4 Dorper.
He is all black except for a little bit of white on the top of his head and then this......
I was a little bummed that his mom, Dori, only had the one since this is technically her 2nd lambing (she lost her last lamb about a month from lambing). We've had too many singles.
For all you Shetland admirers out there - Ingrid was being sweet tonight.
And this is where the bad lambies (ahem....Shetlands) go when there is a sheep in labor and they WON'T LEAVE US ALONE!

They are evil, pure evil. But at least they're cute. Fae (the black one on the right) was eating my zipper and licking my face.greenbean said:They're all cute
Poor Shetlands, being locked away

I just got in from the last barn check of the night. Nothing going on, but there are a couple sheep whose udders have grown since yesterday and there has been a little discharge here and there. Maybe tomorrow. I'm hoping that we will start to see more twins now. I think that there are only a few more that will have singles.
Have I mentioned that my finger HURTS?? I stabbed underneath the nail on my left middle finger yesterday while putting chicken kebabs together.
