April / Delilah / Vernica's Foaling thread Cam Up

[AnnaC]

Oh I'm sorry you are sick Hazel - I think it is lack of sleep/exhaustion that causes a body to get run down and therefore pick up any bug going!

Delilah standing quietly in her normal corner, 2.15am

When you are feeling a bit better could we possibly have a couple of pics of Delilah side on (tummy) and her udder. It is quite difficult to see her actual shape via the cam.

 

[AnnaC]

Just checked on Delilah and it really looked as though she has 'flattened' on her sides/flanks?? It might have been the cam angle, but has the foal dropped in the last day or two? I know you said that she doesn't seem to be doing much shopping of late, but could she be one of those ladies that brings her milk in as she foals? How close do you think she might be?

Hope you are feeling better today.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Sorry ladies, I'm still not up to par. Fixing to hit the bed. Promise I will get pics uploaded in the morning and posted. Delilah has gone the other way on the udder thing and April is looking more and more preggers. Please fogive me for not getting the pics posted tonight. Night all

 

[AnnaC]

1.50am and Delilah standing quietly in her corner as usual.

Please take your time Hazel - it's important that you get better as quickly as possible.

 

[Eagle]

Please get well soon

we don't need pics we need you healthy

 

[cassie]

get better soon Hazel!! as the others have said! you need to get better really soon!

and I agree about the whole owner getting sick before mares foal thing. I got really sick just after Fiji and before Suzie foaled, luckily Suzie waited for me to get better before she had Finn, I hope it is the same with you and with Megan!!

would love to see some piccies but only when you are feeling well!

headed to bed, night all

 

[a mini dream come true]

As promised here are the lastest pics of Delilah and April Mr. Wags will be posted later today.

Delilah filled her udder some last night.

Her sides have sunk some, but not much

The hooha still has a way to go

I've resized and rotated. we'll see how long they let this one stay. And here is Miss April Due May28th and is 30" tall

She has quite a ways to go on her Udder.

Thank you for all your well wishes. I'm feeling some better today. The Cloud Walker Maturnity (sp) ward is a work in progress. Hopefully finished this week end.s-i-l to be should be down here around 1. I'll update more a little later. Megan, hope your family is feeling better today. Sorry I haven't posted much lately. I've been watching tho. Sounds like someone is here the watch dogs are raising cane. Better go see who it is.

 

[AnnaC]

Oh she's making great progress Hazel, and yes she does look a bit more flat sided. Who was that in with her topping up her lovely straw bed?

I know Miss April has a hairy tummy, but she doesn't look as though she will last to the end of May before she foals!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Thanks ladies, Anna, that was me in with Delilah, she wasn't too sure what I was doing. She is such a sweetheart tho. Kept coming in to chech on the progress. Diane, I am feeling better thanks, Kids should be here shortly, so I'll probably let them do a lot and I'll supervise.

. They say I amke a great supervisor

.

April is very low in the belly but no udder. We'll just have to wait and see how she progresses.

Kids are here. Talk to ya'll later

 

[MeganH]

Thanks Hazel and I hope you feel better!

 

[Eagle]

Have fun

working the kids, and get well soon

 

[AnnaC]

Hope you have been keeping those kids busy Hazel and getting some rest yourself.

I thought it was you Hazel, but the cam was a bit fuzzy for me for some reason, so I wasn't sure LOL!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

We got part of the new barn done today

. The Grandkids hauled a lot of stuff out to the dumpster. They get to drive the lawn mower so it's more of a game and not work

. Mirrie got to get some sleep and I spent time with the grand kids inside and out side. They are such a wonderful bunch. Shayna wanted to brush April and of course April loved the attention

. I was looking at her and she is looking kind of slab sided. I'll try to get a pic tomorrow. No new changes in Deililah tho.

As promised here is a new pic of Mr Wags

He is outside playing chase with the other dogs. His Momma gets the toy and the rest chase her

. They get plenty of exercise that way. It is so cute to watch them

. His Dad, Dudley, will get the toy and go hide it when he thinks they have played enough. They are so funny to watch in their dinamics

OMG! He is just too cute. Love that coloring.

 

[a mini dream come true]

I'm so glad ya'll like him. He is really a stunner and a sweetheart. Loves the cuddles. This pic was taken with my new camera so I could get a good one with out having to be right on top of him. Love the new camera. It will be great at the shows.

We've got a full day tomorrow clipping for the show in Glenn Rose so I better try to get some sleep. Hope everyone has a great day/evening.

 

[AnnaC]

Oh Hazel he is just perfection!! He has grown up to be such a handsome boy too.

When is the show? Who or what are you taking and for what classes?

 

[Eagle]

Great pics Hazel, I am glad you had a fun day

 

[a mini dream come true]

Horses clipped for show, barn up, and a very busy weekend comes to an end.Happy Late Easter Evryone!

Anna, the show is the weekend of the 19th thru the 22nd of April. We are taking four horses. One gelding for driving clases, two mares for halter and liberty and one mare for jumping. All of the Grandkids are going and they are all showing so that will be a busy weekend also.

Not much cnage in Delilah. I sweare she is going to drive my crazy with the show coming up and all.

One day I think she is making progress and the next I think she has taken 2 steps back

I just don't know anymore.

Guess I better get off here and try to get some sleep for my other job. I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.

Son Rise is driving!!!

 

[Eagle]

wow sounds like you had a fun packed weekend Hazel, how about sharing some pics

 

[AnnaC]

Yes some pics would be good Hazel - but from the sounds of it, you probably didn't have the time to even reach for that new camera?

Sorry Delilah is keeping you guessing, she seems to be following the new rule book that this year's mares have written - "yes I might", "no I wont", "yes I might", "NO, I'll make you keep guessing"!!

So we will all keep watching and waiting. LOL!!
