MaryEllen had her lambs

MaryEllen had been in labor since last night, she only started pushing this afternoon.
IT WAS A LONG LABOR
She was so tired that I had to pull the first lamb.
It was a BOY, and he's good sized!

I went up to tell Ma and Pa about the lamb, then went back down to take pictures.
About 5 minutes after I got back, she had a ewe lamb.
Super unexpected! I thought 1 lamb was it.
This next lamb is very small, but she was the first one on her feet!

The boy is the two colored one, and the girl is all white.
Although the girl does have a spot of brown on the left side of her face.

Meet Marty(Martin) and Irene!

  1. How adorable, and colorful too! Good job, helping Mary Ellen out with Marty!! Irene will have to eat a lot to put some meat on her bones. Hope to see all of them soon. Love, Gramma

  2. Mary Ellen looks so proud of her babies. And rather relieved that they're finally here so she doesn't have to carry them around any more! They're both very cute! -- Kate & Phil
