Happy Appy Acres - Sugar **colt 5/2**and Cheerio angel filly 5/10

[Eagle]

Looks like the girls are out playing

 

[happy appy]

I have them out in the only sun we are getting today. It has dried up enough to go roll. They should be back in shortly because I will be going to work.

 

[happy appy]

I gave them a good brushing and rubbing when I got home tonight. Sugar was very itchy in her hips and flank area and Cheerio had a body pushing out on her side near the back of her belly when I was done brushing and rubbing her belly. I guess the foal wanted a little loving too.

Awww cute!! I saw you in with them earlier was so nice

they have both been very quiet so far tonight and neither girl has been down at all yet... Just like Mary's two girls... Come on girls!!

[happy appy]

I have had the girls out for some sun this morning but The will be coming right in.

 

[cassie]

That's great that the girls got a chance to go out in the sun for a bit

How are they looking tonight Tina?

 

[happy appy]

Sugar is not happy for sure. Lots of belly kicking/biting, pacing lots, not eating her normal amount of 2nd cut hay, and when she lays down she spends the whole time looking at her belly. She is only going down for a few minutes at a time and only a couple of times today.

Cheerio has slowed down today. Normally she races around shaking her head, making all the horse minis think that she is "all that". Not today. She is slow moving and quiet.

We will see waht tonight brings I guess.

I forgot to say, day 351 today!

 

[cassie]

lots of weight shifting and tail swishing from Cheerio, Sugar is standing looking plain miserable

poor girlies!

 

[targetsmom]

Maybe they were waiting for Toffee too... tell them it is OK to foal now.

 

[cassie]

Cheerio down early... then back up... hmmm

yawning from Cheerio...

 

[cassie]

Cheerio back down sternal, heavy breathing.

 

[Gone_Riding]

Thank you for letting us know! I'm going to that cam now!

 

[Gone_Riding]

I saw someone check on Cheerio and see that someone is watching her.

How's she doing?

 

[cassie]

oh Tina would have just got home from work

how is she looking Tina?

 

[happy appy]

uploading new pictures now. Sugar was hot to the touch tonight, Cheerio was just warm. Sugar's bag was even fuller.

 

[happy appy]

 

[cassie]

looking good to go!! I was thinking maybe Cheerio may have been a step ahead Sugar given her behaviour earlier but I see Sugar is still in the lead

come on Sugar we have already had two babies tonight! lets make it a hatrick!

 

[misty'smom]

Cassie I saw Carrie's baby but who is the second one?? I guess it will be a lot skipping around tonight to try to catch all the action!!!! This is good for me keeping my mind off of loosing Grace on Monday and it is a happy time....new life and lots of joy!!!
