Today was a busy day on the homestead!  Between baking over 100 english muffins, a few loaves of bread and hamburger buns, I was running back and forth from kitchen to barn while our ewe cinnamon was lambing, after a few hours we knew something was happening as our dogs where all going crazy.  By the time the girls and I got down to the barn cinnamon had already delivered a beautiful baby lamb.  Now this is our first birth on the homestead and so you can imagine the excitement, especially being that we had not expected a lamb for another month...guess my calculations where a little off.  So all afternoon we spent laying more bedding and checking up on mom and baby.  After a discussion with the children we have decided to name our lamb caramel as he or she looks just like cinnamon!
