He's here! No more baby waiting game!

Found the cutest little surprise Sunday morning when I went to check on my mare. The sun was just coming up and I wasn't sure at first I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. Mom and baby are doing well, and the mare is an excellent mother!

Golly! The legs on that little guy...they're as long as a country road!

Congrats! He's beautiful!

Thanks, Alice! Yes, he is a leggy little fella. It's interesting - we've been getting very leggy babies out of our Thoroughbred mare with the foundation QH stallion, but we were surprised at the legs on this one out of a QH mare. She does have a lot of Thoroughbred in her background though.

His mama and I had a lot of waiting on the baby discussion that she was making me a "scream machine" for barrel racing. This mare is definitely bred to do it. Maybe she was listening to me the whole time. ;-)

Here's mama.

There is a lot of thoroughbred there! He's gonna be fun to watch for awhile. I love to watch them waggle those front legs out and out and out to try to get to something on the ground.
