I do like Cheers! I should mention that we don’t do human names for horses here. Last night the name “Forty” came up - for Red-40.
I love Cheers and Blush!
“Tipsy” is home! She arrived on a day where there’s a good 2” of ice everywhere and quickly showed us how sensible and quiet she is by walking across it to the barn.
Tipsy is a great name choice, too.
I have my maiden TB mare bred to a Connemara stud. If my math is right, she is 276 days.
I need name suggestions, please. The sire is Fiontar Mac Tire, and the mare’s name is Phaedra. I have Exsqueeze Me and Montgomery so far.
I like Exsqueese Me because it’s funny, not from the movies.
She’s a little grumpy these days
Bambi has been enjoying the rare bit of sunshine we have here!
She is closer to the fence and her rising 2 year old filly is in the foreground.
And, just for fun, here’s a short video of some fetal movement - around :05, :19, :27, :35. Please forgive my unswept crosstie area.

Oh my goodness. That is such a cool video. Thank you for sharing
What pretty pictures!
Wow! You can really see the family resemblance.
Carina is 241 days today, which means we are now in the double digit range on my countdown clock!
Tomorrow is her 23rd birthday. Pregnancy really seems to agree with the old girl.
Wow, no kidding!! She looks great!
Tipsy got her feet done, a haircut, and a whole host of vet work done in the past week. She’s probably in shell shock from the amount of handling she’s had vs what she came from. She and Hop have about 30-50 days to go.
Oh, how cute is that face! Can you say glow up?
Now for her halter to arrive and she’ll be set.
All that to say she didn’t have bad care at her previous home - we just keep our broodmares like show horses.
Poor horse, it keeps kicking her
The saggy raps are from overnight

And please excuse the messy floor
Rude! Ooh, my tummy hurts watching that. And I’ve never had a baby…
Still waiting…
She looks completely over this pregnancy!
