Thank you, everyone! She is such a doll.

Is she considered a bay pintaloosa? She does not have a lot of pinto pattern but she does have the white on her legs and across the back of her neck. Everyone always comments on her color.

I hope the cats come back. I think they are about 9 months old. We had them spayed last month so they would be ready to be outside. The people who gave them to us had them outside already but they had never been outside in our yard before. I left the door open and sat in a chair by the building but they would not venture out. After I came in for dinner I went to check them and one was gone. The other was happily perched in her window. We left the door cracked for Bella to get back in but Cissy decided to go off too. I hope they are together. They are sisters and I can't believe one left without the other.

With Jake I am trying to get some experienced riders and trainers to help us out. My husband was against having anyone else ride Jake but he sees now it is necessary to help get him in the right state and help us learn to ride him. I think I have found 2 people who would be good. Austin's trainer asked me if she could give lessons on Jake with one of her students. I had said yes but no jumping but now I am going to have to say no since it would have been in english and I only want him western. We went out today and lunged him and he was just like before.. didn't want to listen at first but got better and better as time went by.
 
Oh- and Tink was rolling some today so I sat and watched her. I thought she was starting to colic. It was pretty hot though so as I kept watching she stopped and wasn't acting abnormal in any other way so I thought she was ok. I haven't seen her roll again but if anyone is watching her tonight and she looks in pain please let me know. She has been nursing and I have seen poop in the paddock. She is starting to put everything in her mouth though. Momma is grazing and she kind of mimics her but does not actually eat it. Is this ok?
 
Megan she is ADORABLE! What a darling!

The white on her legs and neck is classic tobiano like my stallion Tinker, although he expresses it even less then Tinkerbelle does! The blue eye could be suggesting something else is playing there as well. The splash on her back as Diane has already said is probably appie rather then pinto given her mum's genetics. I'd be calling her a bay pintaloosa for sure

I can't see her at the moment Megan she must be down resting but I'm sure everything is fine

foals love to have a roll. and if she was colicing she would continously roll and wouldn't be interested in drinking from mum or nibbling the grass good on you for keeping such a good eye on her

3.40am and Laney was down sternal by her door - she's up now. Little Tink having a scratch of her botty in the door corner. LOL!!

Megan foals do try to immitate their Mommas and mouth at the grass at a pretty early age, no problem. Also they often roll quite violently if they have the itches for some reason or another - perhaps she was feeling a bit hot yesterday and needed to have a good scratch. As long as she's not looking mopey/quiet with lack of interest, then I wouldn't worry about colic when she rolls.
 
So I found one of the cats... Bella... she is stuck up one of our trees. My hubby will be home in an hour and will get her. Luckily I think she isn't too high to reach on our big ladder.
 
That is wonderful news, well that you have found her not so much that she is up a tree

I am sure her sister will be close by Megan

Great news about the kitty Megan at least you know that it didn't wander too far - even if it went in an upward direction!! I'm sure hubby will be able to get her down and I'm also sure she will be thrilled an hungry too. Like Renee, I don't suppose the other one will be far away.
 
Poor Bella went further up the tree. She is a good 30-40 feet up. We will just have to wait for her to come down. I think she will start coming down on her own soon. There is a can of food waiting for her at the bottom of the tree.
 
poor Bella, stay safe pretty kitty, I saw Tink running around just before you closed her in for the night. she is so lovely! does she snuggle up to you now Megan?
 
Aww Congratulations Megan what a pretty little girl..she really is gorgeous well worth the wait and her name really suits her..you all must be really pleased

Thanks, Lindi! Glad to see you around!

The kids love little Tinkerbelle. She loved to give Austin love nibbles and my daughter we are more careful with because Laney can be a bit witchy with people around her baby. She bit my elbow the other day because Tinkerbelle was rubbing on me as I was crouched down and I guess she didn't like it. Tink walks up to Cheyenne though and she got to pet her several times.

Tink is a sweet little filly. She likes attention.. so she will walk up to you a lot of times. Her mom is very protective and will herd her away. Tink loves to nibble you and get scratches.

My cat is still WAY up in the tree. I think she may have gone up more last night rather then down. I do think she will come down though. We think she was only up there since yesterday. We were working right under that tree Saturday and Sunday and didn't hear her calling so we doubt she was there. I went to halter Ricky and heard a cat crying yesterday and found her up in the tree. Our ladder wouldn't quite reach and my fil has a huge ladder he can bring once she starts coming down if she doesn't get down herself.

I have been away for the last few days- trying to catch up around the house on things that got behind since we were all sick. Then yesterday my daughter kept asking to get her ears pierced so we took her in the evening and she did really well. I also started 'The 30 day Shred' yesterday since we will be going to Disney World in several weeks and I am in a wedding the week after. I am sore this morning- it is my second day. Have a feeling the work out will be harder since I am sore but I am excited to be doing it.
 
It is a work out program by Jillian Michaels (the woman who is the trainer on The Biggest Loser) and it is supposed to help you lose up to 20 lbs in 30 days (if you eat right AND do the workouts). I don't think I will lose 20 lbs but I do want to get in much better shape. The workouts are intense and there are 3 levels you work through- I am excited

Yes do tell please

If kitty doesn't come down you could call the fire brigade but make sure you turn the cam cos they are sexy ROFL
 
LOL Renee- Because of our fencing they can't get back here though
default_sad.png
At least the truck can't get back here. My fil has a 30 ft ladder we may try but I don't know who will be climbing it lol
 
I did my first day yesterday and was so happy I was able to even get through the whole thing. Today I am sore.. and don't think it will be so easy. We will see!
 
Just finished day 2 of the 30 Day Shred and I was sore but got through it.

Now that I have cooled down a bit I feel great. I have never done a work out program before so this is new to me and I like it.

Bella is in the tree still but she has come down at least once branch. She was calling to me when I let Laney and Tinkerbelle outside and was moving around so I think she is deciding she must come down. I may put a sign on the stop sign with a picture of Cissy incase someone has her or has seen her. I still don't see her and think she may have gone looking for Bella. I like Bella to make lots of noise and hope it will bring Cissy back.

Tink likes to truck it out for a few rounds in the big pasture... she is so cute. Laney is sticking with grazing and not at Tink's side at all times anymore so Tink is further away then I have seen her be from mom. She likes to lick the stones at the bottom of our steps. She loves scratches and will nibble your shirt or arm as you give them to her.
