Our New Baby




So, we have a new addition to our family. He has four legs and four hooves. His name is Madison and he is Natalie's new pony. He is only 1 1/2 years old. So she can't ride him yet, but we are having a good time teaching him new things. He has the greatest temperament, and he doesn't spook at anything. I was not going to buy a new horse right now, but she made me an offer on this pony I couldn't refuse and Natalie has been in love with him since the day he was born. He was born right there at the barn where we ride, we have known him from day 1. Plus, I can work off all of his board in only 8 hours a week. (Believe me, Natalie will be helping me with the work when she gets a little bigger! She already helps take care of her pony.) She was so cute the day she found out he was her's. She kept saying "He's mine? For real?" It was cute.
