OK, here she is folks, twenty hours old. Her name is Symphony in Silk. She is definitely worth the trouble, expense, and worry I've gone through to get her!
She's 23" tall, which is above average for miniature foals (18-20"), and should mature around 34" or 35". Sorrel (redhead!) with star on her forehead and four white feet (can't tell how far up the legs the white goes until she sheds that baby coat).
I didn't take these photos, but I think I'm going to use them for today's post, as I've got so much to do to make ready for mama and baby to come home! I'll get my own photos when they get here, so expect more to come!!
Thanks for all the well wishes I received on behalf of Ladyhawk and Symphony! Y'all are super!!
How precious - she is adorable, I can hardly wait to watch her grow!! What a beautiful new addition to your family!!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful baby, welcome to the world Symphony in Silk.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this sharing, how are you going to be able to sleep or get anything done, I'd sit and watch her andd her Mum for days. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your kind comments. I am in love already, and I haven't even met her yet. She and her mom are coming home Thursday. I expected a little more time to make improvements to mom's stall area, so I'm bustin' my behind getting things done now.
ReplyDeleteThis is my next driving horse! (I've decided already that she's a keeper!)
Sunny, she is amazing! I hope you will continue to post photos as she grows. I have seen one of these little guys right after being born and they are awesome.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww, how cute is that!!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE baby pictures!!

These are just darling! Ladyhawk looks so nonchalant - is she a many-time momma?
ReplyDeleteAww, she's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHow soft and fluffy that baby coat looks. You are so blessed to have a little one around. Lots of love will be a great gift to Symphony.
ReplyDeleteSunny she is so precious. Have fun with her. My daughter is jealous - she is a bigtime rider and her older sister took the horse to Colorado.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! And what a beautiful name. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty, I'll be watching for more photos of her!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like quite the "Lady". Congratulation is in order. Love at first sight.
