A baby lamb is a tiny bundle of cute that is constantly trying to escape or run around like a crazy person leaping off everything in sight as well as trying to climb on Adrian, our ewe.
Pauly was born on Easter some time late at night. We didn't notice until around noon on Monday. We saw a fluffball running around the field when we were coming home from buying moving supplies.

“Uuum, what is that?” Asked Ashley. “Is that a baby?”
“No, not everything is a baby.” I said snarkily, mostly because this was the 5th “Is that a baby?” in the past 3 months.
“Then why is it running around?” she continued.
“Balls! That’s a baby!” I exclaimed while jumping out of the slowly moving car.
Normally a successful baby lamb would be just another day on the ranch, but being that we were embarking on a three-day move up to Oregon the next day, it was causing a little stress (understatement).
“Should we call Christy?” Ashley asked, only slightly panicked. Before I could even say “Yes,” she was already on the phone. Christy and Mike were there within an hour, with oats, vitamins, and inoculations in hand.
After they gave us the ok to move her we went back to packing, we were leaving in less than 24 hours after all.
So little and cute! |
Our Friendlord came over to help us finish cleaning and packing for the move so it would look good when she came over to inspect it later (she’s cool like that.)
Pulling out of that driveway was hard, not only because we had a horse trailer being pulled by 26 foot Winnebago, but because we were already missing all the amazing people that we knew there.

Leaving the driveway of our awesome little farm in San Miguel. We were super lucky to have such a great place, with such wonderful Friendlords and friends in the area. Thank you all for everything! |
