Our New Mini Filly *with pics*

About a month ago I went to feed the 4 mares that I had in the barn for foaling and found one in labor. The foal's ear was out and that's it, the vet couldn't make it for another hour (which ended up being 3)
I learned a lot about the inside of a mare and exactly where my strengths ly when it comes to my animals. The little white medicine hat filly didn't make it, but mom is doing great.
Being as mad at myself as I was I kicked all 3 mares out to pasture so that I could see them when I leave for work, hubby could see them all day while he farms, and in-laws could see them as they drove by.

Finally this morning I leave for work and thought I saw a GOAT chewing my mares Tail!! I run to the gate screaming at the stupid goat and low and behold...it's a tiny paint baby.

I took pics from the drive and made hubby go check on it,b/c I was late already for work.

The picture snapping began as soon as I got home.

Here's the beautiful, blue-eyed filly who needs a name. Mom is Shianne
(edited to add) the lot they are in is a part of our yard that we let the minis and goats graze on occassionally, but b/c filly is young the electric was unlugged. They are now nestled in the barn for the night.

That baby is so cute! I noticed her color pattern in the 3rd pix looks like a childrens drawing of a house with smoke coming out of the chimney!

Name suggestions:
Smokey
Chimney
Roxanne and Shianne

Very cute, congrats! Is mom a mini? She looks bigger or is your fence just lower?
