LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS SNOW

We have recently acquired a LOT of snow these past few days. Nothing like a good 'ol snow storm to ruin the weekend.
It's pretty to look at but a PAIN to drive in and walk in.

I let the lambs out to meet the rest of the herd for the FIRST time today ever.
They've met through the fence, but nothing more than that.

Pax took an extreme liking to the lambs, but that really made Wendy angry... so whenever Pax comes over to take a looksie at the lambs, Wendy chases her off.
MaryEllen and Diana ignore the babes, and the alpacas are incredibly interested in them!
The alpacas are so kind to the little ones, they hummed and smelled them a lot, but I think they like the lambs!

Roosevelt checking out the new babies.

TIME TO HAVE SOME FUN

Jillian on the left, Samson on the right.

"What is this???"

Samson looking up at Victor.

Samson and Jillian

I feel like I've been up all night...

Both the babies were alive this morning YAY
Samson was nursing and Jillian was taking a snooze.

Here's Samson, all dried off and about 18 hours old.

And Jillian, about 18 hours old as well. She's got floppy ears.

Babies are here

Got home from school around 3:30 and I bet Wendy had her lambs around 5:00 or so.
TWINS
A girl and then a boy.

I named them Samson and Jillian.
Samson is bigger and lighter in color, while Jillian is darker and smaller.

SORRY FOR THE BAD PICTURES.
I only took a million, mostly when stuff was happening, so they are kind of nasty birth photos.
I'm just gonna show the ones where they are clean-ish haha.

I'll have more pictures later, but right now I'm tired and hungry and thirsty and it's almost 9:00pm and I have homework stuff to do.

Samson is on the right, Jillian is on the left.

Here is Jillian right after she was plopped on the ground

Update on Wendy

Saw the baby moving around today.
Must have been kicking or something, because it looked like a golf ball was rolling around under her skin.
KIND OF UNSETTLING.
But awesome to know that baby is kickin' around in there.

Maybe baby wants to come out and see the world???? :)

Any day now!

I bet she's waiting until 4:00am like... Wednesday night or something.
Like the most inconvenient time and the most inconvenient day.

Diana is incredibly photogenic

There is just something with Diana and her dainty lovely face that makes for some great photos.

Get ready for pictures...

First off, I want to say that Diana has recovered from her ordeal.
She seems back to normal now, which is AMAZING, I'm so happy.

SECOND
Wendy has gotten sooooo much wider.
A few days ago she was trying to scratch her face with on of her back hooves and could not reach her face because her belly was so wide.
So her leg just kind of stuck out to the side and flailed in the air for a bit.

Her belly has also gotten lower to the ground since Christmas!

LOOK AT THAT BELLY.
Plus take a looksie at her new collar she got for Christmas yup yup.

Didn't I tell you? WIDE LOAD. Kind of... getting there.
She hobbles and waddles, BUT when grain is involved boy can she run
