Yesterday, mum allowed baby to go inside with Auntie to eat dinner, and stayed outside in the rain with hers. I stroked her the whole time she ate, both sides. There have been no biting attempts or kicking yesterday or today. Have found a supplement for ulcers that is safe so worth a try.

Baby is so speedy now, whizzing around! She is almost always with Auntie unless she is hungry.

Love these updates. Auntie sounds as though she’s worth her weight in gold, and really pleased mum is relaxing with you a bit. Will be interesting to see whether the supplement makes a difference.

Please don’t take my Auntie away! I want to come too!

(Auntie was coming out to go hacking!)

I love the ring round one eye and the opposite brown ear. My OH looked at the photo and said it looks like she's got a traffic cone through her head, like those joke knives/arrows you can get. She's a sweet little thing, isn't she?

Today, Auntie was demonstrating to baby Tinkerbell that humans are really all good, and that she would need her own one day just like Auntie has. When I went in to catch her, Auntie made a big show of cuddling me with her head, leaning in for kisses and cuddles and generally being over-the-top affectionate for no particular reason. All the while, baby was standing and watching.

Mum has been good since the walking down day, we have had her hoof up in my husband’s hands and held. Front hooves lift ok…as always with youngsters the back ones are more of an issue!

Random thought of the day…
- How much will having a foal at the tender age of 2 stunt Pepper’s growth this year?
