How cute.  In the first pic I immediately though of Sweep (as in Sooty & Sweep)!

I think his head got a bit squashed while being born! we had some big singles this year the perils of not scanning then feeding too much. We find it hard to get a scanner to come to our area at a sensible price. I guess we pay in the long run if we loose lambs, so it's swings and roundabouts.
Had a good year though and hardly lost any lambs
