Mechanically Minded

At least, he thinks so.

Tools. These are definitely tools.

Ben “helped” my dad and I to fix a tractor yesterday. Something to do with something I don’t know.

It was the thingy-ma-jig. Yeah. Definitely your thingy-ma-jig.

The tools will fix it for us. I’ll just wait here and watch them.

What? What’s so funny…?

15-02-11 (3)

Ben was a great help.

These tools behind me – they’re gonna give me cookies if I sit here long enough.

15-02-11 (5)

*Sigh* Are the tools finished fixing the thingy-ma-jig yet? I’m bored.

In fact, Ben was so bored, I took him for a walk afterwards to compensate. There, he could let off some steam.

And spend time with little sister, Little Pip.

The whole gang:

And Sheila.

Sheila with Little Pip (these two get on swimmingly).

But Ben was annoying Pip, so we ditched him and had a mud bath.

The amount of rain we’ve been having over the last few weeks has turned the bale yard into a real mud bath. Pip liked the puddles.

Recently, Pip’s ears have been trying to stand up… but I like them down!

15-02-11 (23)

Pip had never seen so much mud before so was a bit unsure about the whole thing.

What do I do!?

15-02-11 (24)

She watched Sheila most of the time.

15-02-11 (25)

A run through the wet, long grass later, and most of the mud had gone.

15-02-11 (27)

Hooray!

And to finish off, here’s a video of a really cute lamb born yesterday:

  1. OK, lots in this post. First, Ben I have complete faith in your ability to help fix that thingy. Second, Little Pip even looks cute muddy. Third, she is HUGE!!! Sometimes, my ears stand up, but mostly they flop over.

    Your pal, BIG Pip

  6. I just have to say, Ben is one of the most gorgeous dogs I have ever seen. I love his fur, his ears, his coloring, and the symmetry of his markings!
