Hello again from Maybelle Farm. Its Thursday May 3rd, 2012 and all is well at the farm. I'm attaching some pictures of some of the lambs with Rowan and Declan and also a picture of "Odessa" the last lamb born at the farm on Saturday April 28. She weighed 7 lbs and Lyra is her mother. This year we got two beautiful little moorit ewe lambs, two moorit ram lambs and one kalmoget ram lamb. I love having lambs but it is a stressful time, now we can just enjoy all the silly playing as the lambs hop,bounce and run all over the pastures. We have had some very cold, rainy days so they have only been out once. After thunderstorms/rain tomorrow, the weather looks good so they can be outside. The grass is growing like mad fury and next comes the black flies!
Agathe, Olivia, Emma and Bill Hoos went with me to Dutton's farm in Windham last Friday to pick up 20 bales of 2nd cut hay. It was a great adventure as they had never been to the farm. We all climbed up into the hay loft and threw out the hay. Agathe, Olivia, Emma and I went to Walpole to Tractor Supply, Ocean State Job Lot, Mr. G's and had lunch.....what a fun day. Saturday afternoon I had Darcy call Bill because it looked like Lyra would have her lamb and so "Odessa" was born about 7 p.m. that night. We all got to see that delivery and make sure everything was fine. What a wonderful mother Lyra is and Odessa is just a very sweet, lovable little ewe.
Well Declan is having a nap and its almost time to go to the town hall for "Tap Dance" class. Our dance recital will be on Saturday June 2, 2012 at the Wardsboro Town Hall. The children have done a great job and the costumes are so pretty. I just love getting all the costumes and putting on the recital. Its just pure play time for me. So-long from Maybelle MaMa.
