maximus: 5 days old!


i am sure you've all been waiting for the latest report on the foal, Maximus. well - great news: he's healthy and growing big and strong already. He loves his mama and they are showing all the normal signs. woohoo! this calls for some serious rejoicing!

we spent about 20 minutes with him during work on Monday and I think I fell in love with that little baby. holy smokes. so stinkin' cute. he literally bounces around EVERYWHERE. i couldn't help but laugh at how lanky his legs are. he is quite energetic & bold. he walked right up to me and stuck his nose on my t-shirt. i wasn't sure how to react to this, but he was sweet and just let me play with his soft fur.

i'm totally obsessed. be expecting lots more photos of this little (well, big!) one in the future.
notice all his whiskers! ah!



his neck isn't long enough yet to reach the
ground without contorting his long legs like that!



fascinated by this baby,
Cal
