Pistachio keeps us guessing

We didn't know Pistachio's due date because she was not marked (read about marking harnesses here if you don't know what I'm talking about). Presumably, the weather was too cold for the crayon to work. 
Going by her appearance, we've been watching her for about five days. 

When I went to the barn to check on Macadamia this morning, I saw that Pistachio was having contractions as well.  She didn't seem to be pushing too hard, so I thought she might have awhile.  Next time I looked, I saw her water bag.  Within fifteen minutes, her first lamb was out and the second followed less than five minutes later. 

Firstborn is a ewe lamb who looks exactly like momma.  She's brown with sugar lips, so she'll probably look exactly like momma when she grows up, too.  We've named her Laurel.

Laurel was followed by a big ram lamb.  He's mostly brown, and he's already starting to lighten up.  We've named him Linden.

Pistachio was a little freaked out at first (compounded by the fact that it's almost impossible to keep birthing fluids --and smells-- separate when lambing is occurring simultaneously), but she's doing fine now.
