Oh Baby!

With all of the newborn foals being born around blogville, I couldn't resist looking back at the few pictures I have of My Boy as a foal. I am lucky to have these.

I only wish I could have known the little spotted stinker back then!

I just love this picture of his face. Unfortunately, the photographer cut his ears of the shot.

But look at his eyelashes! And his little whiskers!

And of course, he doesn't really have sky blue eyes.

He looks so shy and innocent in this picture. Almost like a little filly. Sorry My Boy, but you do!

My heart just melts every time I see these pictures.

Because part of this charm is still present in that handsome 15 year old face of his.

It is why he is so hard to resist.

So hard to get mad at.

So hard not to spoil rotten!

  1. You're lucky to have photos of him as a foal - I wish I had some of mine! He does have the same sweet expressions as when he was a foal.

  2. You are so lucky to have baby pics of your Boy. I'm sooo jealous. Unfortunately I know nothing about Possum before I first laid eyes on him myself. He may be registered, he may have some terrific story of his breeding and or parents. I have no idea. I often day dream and make up silly stories of a handsome TB jumping the fence and mating with an appy mare in someone's backyard hahaha. I do know one thing though, someone atleast had brains enough to geld him. I couldn't imagine Possum as a stud, the world would be in trouble if he was.

    I actually have thought about having an equine psychic talk with him. I also wonder about his past abuse especially and what happened specifically.

  10. He sure is a cute little man.
    I have one photo of Brandy as an 8 month old and since I still know her previous owner I have seen other photos of her from a yearling to around 6 yrs old.
    I only have Fritzy's baby picture on her registration papers. I am sure she was just as bossy than as she is now!

  14. He does still have such a sweet face.

    When I bought Emma my freind gave me her "baby book" so I have all the pics of Emma from newborn to
    2yrs, plus all that I have added.

    We even saved her baby teeth when she left them in her grain bucket LOL

    and people wonder why horse people are so passionate about their horses LOL we put as much or more into them as our kids sometimes! and there is a whole lot of money invested too!
