New family member

My mom's horse finally had her baby. He's a cute little thing, so tiny! These are miniature horses, so a newborn horse of this type is actually pretty small. Avery was very impressed and the horse was completely terrified. He is three days old here. Ain't he cute?

Waiting...

My mom's horse is due to have a baby tomorrow. We went over there hoping we'd get to see some action, but no dice. It turns out I no longer have patience for these things, having waited so damn long for my own offspring to come into this world, and I gave up on the waiting and came home.

Here are a couple of pictures of Avery hanging around the barn. She didn't really get what was going on and it'd be an understatement to say she didn't want to wait either. Not a 'waiter,' that one. We tried giving her some hay to chew on, but she looked at us like we were giving her hemlock or something and threw it on the ground.



Just a few more...
