bleat bleat

For those wondering what's going on back at Petris Farm - and who haven't already been pelted with my photos on facebook or email....

Our VERY FIRST LAMBS ever arrived yesterday afternoon. They are just the most precious creatures imaginable. My daughter calls them Tiger and Sugarlips. We found them wobbling around by mama Noah yesterday when we got home - probably not more than an hour old. I was so thankful that they were born when they were... in a nice quiet sunny spell, after the overnight rainstorm that dumped more than an inch of water, and before the predicted thunderstorms and wet snow of yesterday evening/night. They got a nice dry interval to recover from the ordeal of coming into the world.
