Wow, and twins!  She could go on that goofy t.v. show about women who give birth and didn't know they were pregnant, lol.

I don't know if Clover is pregnant or not.  It can be hard to tell on goats, too, until later.

Well, maybe Miss Clover will suprise you, she is so coy!!   I bet the baby sheep are so soft, and does Annabelle still think she is a dog?

By the way, I was one of the goofy women, Catray, but I didn't go on TV.  12 weeks pregnant and didn't have a clue!

I've known a few other women who've been there and done that too JeannieB!  Sometimes there's just stuff that gets in the way! 

Sheep are notorious for this, and goats, well, they are a law unto themselves!… especially Clover!  She is after all, the Queen of everything!!!… well, she may just be the Princess of Quite a Lot.  After all, she can't actually bake cookies, she can only demand them.

The little Lambkins are beautiful!!  I can't wait to see how many horns they have!  This is wonderful news, Oh the fleeces you will have to spin now Suzanne!  You'll have to get a spinning wheel to keep up with it now, or get the old one in The Slanted Little House working properly.  Does Georgia like to spin?  You're going to have too much to manage on your own!

If tomatoes are a fruit, then isn’t ketchup technically a

smoothie?

Yes, Annabelle still think she's a dog.  She doesn't know she's a sheep.  The other sheep have never accepted her, so she has to hang out with Jack.  She needs to have some babies of her own so she'll have somebody to love.  Maybe she'll have puppies!!

 

Georgia doesn't know how to use that old spinning wheel!  I wish she did.

Sweet babies – lucky you.  Isn't that the best kind of surprise to find in the barn in the morning?

Jeannie, these women are in labor before they realise it, lol.  I should not say goofy, I know it does happen.  My good friend was 6 months pregnant and did not know it until she realised she was being kicked!

How adorable! Wish I was there to cuddle the wooly little things. Which sheep is this? Is she a good mama? Can't wait for tomorrow's post.

Suzanne, I was just wondering if they are boys or girls. 

I am in love with the one at the very bottom of todays post.  I keep going back to look at him/her.  Just adorable.
