The first spring flowers are starting to bloom and every time I turn around it seems like another lamb is being born.

There's Ivy with her big ewe lamb.

And Jasmine with her little boy.

Honey, my Tunis-Leicester cross with her ewe lamb.  And Kiri, with her big girl.

Here's Kristie with her lambs - 2 of of the 3 are now completely on the bottle.  Oh, the fun and aggravation of bottle lambs!

The lambs are so sweet and love to be petted.  They are also incredibly cute but cause Kristie distress because they follow us instead of her.  They twine around our feet every time we go in the pasture, making walking very difficult.  And then there's the making of formula, warming bottles, washing bottles - oh, the fun of bottle babies.  I really am so glad that spring is here!
