I thought from the pictures you posted she looked bigger then Misty.
This is making May look very far away. I have one coming then:)

This is deaconjim.
The weather is freezing, the trees and everything else is covered with ice.
Misty is wearing a halter, but we didn't want to tie her just yet. I figured that would stress them both. After coffee, we're going back out and will give it another try.
I wouldn't tie her either. Just have someone hold the line and soothe her. She'll get use to it. I wouldn't do it for great lenghts of time. Just 2-3 times a day for short periods.

Sugar looked a lot bigger around than Misty, but Misty is a much bigger horse, so she was able to hide it more. I don't think it will be long before Sugar drops.
Oh, and sorry about the weather. That makes it difficult doesn't it.
Our weather here is warming up. It was 28 this morning, and the forecast says highs in the 50's for the week. Maybe it will move that way and warm you guys up.
Becky
Just in case anyone thinks Rose isn't excited, she's now on the phone to England making birth anouncements.
LOL:)
It is exciting.
Becky
We're getting ready to go to breakfast. Get some pictures:)
Becky
I'm obviously not properly equipped for birthing babies. I'm trying to figure out what i can do on short notice before Sugar foals to make this easier for her.
Pictures will take a while to post. For some reason our camera will no longer download to our computer. We have to go into town and have the card printed to a CD to get them off. We'll take plenty and try to get them posted as soon as possible.
Time to get breakfast started. We'll update later.
Congratulations you two. Looking forward to the pictures but yall don't go into town in bad weather just for that.
Hi This is Sharn, It was James before! LOL and yes I am excited, and yes I have been on the phone to England! LOL Lots of very good friends there that have been on tender hooks too~ We are having breakfast, and seeing to James Mama and then we will be outside to see to Misty and the foal a bit more. The foal seems to be doing great, I just wish it was warmer!
Thanks for all your advice. It was really helpful.
Hopefully his cousin will wait for better weather to "drop" in. Again, congrats:')
Funny red neck question. What would you call the kids of 2 sisters that had the same father. Cousins are siblings?
The mares are not related! But the foals are both from Lightning.
Foals name has changed............it is now ADGE
My late husband that died of cancer in 2000 (My 10 and 5 year olds father) nickname was ADGE, and he died on this day. So James thought to honor the foal with his nickname.
the foal is running around happy right now!
How are you pronouncing Adge?
Does he look like lightening or darker like Misty?
like badge without the B. Its a Scottish name.
slightly darker like Misty, but short in the body like Lightning, He also has this brilliant white star on his forhead! Cute!
