Moose the lamb

Our newest and last lamb of the year just a couple of hours old here ~ we have named this little guy ' Moose' ! He is a big lamb; long legged and long bodied. That's a portrait of his mom below. Her name is Snowball and Moose is her first lamb. It was a difficult birth for her but she's doing beautifully now and is proving to be an awesome mom! Moose is finding his legs and learning how to keep his big head up. It's been snowing the last few days. All three lambs and their moms are still in their comfy lambing apartments till it's a bit more spring like outdoors. Soon they'll be bounding about out on fresh spring grass and as Matthew; one of our wood ring folks said " ...they'll be making the place look like an Easter greeting card come to life!" :) It's lunch time and we're just warming up one of our favourites ~ homemade (of course) split pea soup. mmmm.
