On March 2nd. Around 6 am our little girl was born. The waiting has been a long one for us here. I don't know if it was gut feelings or what, but I sure worried about this baby. It was a hard day here working with Julie the mother, and her sick baby. Our little girl is very sick right now. She is septic and receiving medical treatment daily.
Our baby is a buckskin filly Paso Fino. Both parents came to us last summer along with two other pregnant mares. We have gelded the father, a little late, but it is done. One more baby to go any day now. My bet it will be a stud colt, and buckskin in color.
We are tossing in names, so anyone can join us. So far we have come up with, Julianna's Sunday Moon, Julie's Sunday Mocha, Julie's Mocha. We will be posting our baby naming party as soon as the last of the babies are born. I hate waiting! Too much time to worry about things, and the list is always a long one.

Our little baby is doing much better now. Full of life and eating like a horse:0) She is still getting her antibiotic shots twice a day. Every day life is being filled with laughter with her. I love to sit and watch her run and play. She is learning how to kick real good now. Julie, the mother is so good to her baby.
At first it was hard for her, she didn't understand what just happened to her. All she knew was that there was something moving around wanting to get to parts of her body, and she wasn't going to have it.
Julie had to be sedated heavily so the baby could nurse. Now it is all good for both mom and baby.
The balloons have been placed in their popper places for the world can see. We are all proud parents here and love to show it. FOR THE LOVE OF HORSES!!!
We will keep you posted on the babies, and the one still waiting to get here.
