I have a secret! Now with pics!

nadia · 06-19-2008, 05:03 PM

Well, it won't be a secret anymore after I post this, but I am getting a mini! She is a little sorrel pinto filly born on April 1st so she won't be able to come home until the end of July, but I am so darn excited! You couldn't wipe the smile off of my face if you tried.

I can't wait to spoil her rotten.

I posted we bought Teddy, who is bigger than a mini, and we had decided not to get a mini but this little girl is just too gorgeous and her price is too good to pass up. So now I am the new mom of a beautiful baby girl mini! Beau and Teddy will have a little sister, lol.

I have pics and I just put in a call to the seller to see if it is ok if I post them.

Updated to add-
Just spoke to seller and she gave me permission to post the pics. So meet my new little girl! -

Congrats on your new little one.
They are so sweet and fun.
Looking forward to seeing her picture.

OMG! It does. I saw a hurricane but now I see Cindy Lou Who! LOL (BTW, the seller and I thought it was neat that she has a hurricane on her forehead because her mom was a Hurricane Katrina rescue.)

prancingpony · 06-19-2008, 08:26 PM

I am so happy someone rescued her!! Now you have her beautiful baby!!!!

I don't think I could live down there with the hurricanes!! I just have to put up with horribly cold winters!

Just_Another_Love007 · 06-19-2008, 08:30 PM

GORGEOUS markings! just dont let her get too fat or too skinny. minis are hard to take care of cause you cant keep them one weight! our neighbors stallion is SO fat! shes a sorrel overo right? thats what che looks like. she has a sweet face too. cant wait to get more pics of her!

country-mare · 06-19-2008, 08:34 PM

Oh, I just love her.
She is so sweet looking.
Bet you can't wait to get her home.

I am not good at figuring paint patterns and was actually wondering if she is overo or tobiano? Do you think she is overo? Her dad is a minimal overo. Here is a pic of her dad-

nadia · 06-19-2008, 09:12 PM

BTW- thank you all for the nice comments about my little girl. Now I have to think of a pretty and girlie name for her.

Any suggestions?

Just_Another_Love007 · 06-19-2008, 09:32 PM

i was thinking she was an overo because of a horse at the barn who has almost identical type markings on her just in black and white. maybe we will get some more input on the markings

HorseLVR · 06-19-2008, 09:42 PM

OMG! That is the cutest little thing I've seen in a looooong time! Congrats. As for a name, I thought of Gracie for some reason.

barrelracer94 · 06-19-2008, 09:46 PM

OMG she's sooo cute!

Sorry, no name suggestions.

APHANutmeg · 06-19-2008, 09:47 PM

She is just precious! I believe her color would be tobiano. Overos the white cannot cross over the back( at least from what I read

, but not real sure). She is beautiful though. Congrats on getting her.
I love the minis. I now have 4!

They are just so addictive, like potato chips!

I have the perfect boyfriend for your little girl, my little boy just born on June 16.

He is sooooooooooooooo cute! I could just put him in my pocket!

I agree they are definitely addictive. Ever since I went to NaKar miniatures, I just could not get minis off of my mind!

farmergal · 06-20-2008, 12:03 AM

My little sorrel Rebeca Rose "Becky" was a Christmas present from my husband several years ago.

APHANutmeg your little one is adorable!

April or Katrina and even Cindy Lou are excellent names. I also think of Daphne when I look at her. She is so cute.

Your going to have so much fun. The hard part is remembering they are a horse and treating them as such. Not an easy task.

blueberry · 06-20-2008, 08:23 AM

Cutie Pie Alert.............how blessed you are to be able to have her

. Love the hurricane---I bet you google hurricane names and see if there are any that strike you as cute enough for her. Congrats and keep the pics coming when you get her home. I put a couple of links below to lists of hurricane names past, present and future. My oldest DD's nickname of Dolly is on the list of hurricane names for this year--she thought that was pretty funny.

Very cute

paintmeaperfecthorse · 06-20-2008, 08:48 AM

AWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! How adorable! I love her and her coloring!

Those two would definitely make an adorable couple, I see sparks flying and a Nicholas Sparks book in their future. LOL

cocaloda · 06-20-2008, 01:15 PM

That baby is to cute! Wonder what the guy will think about her? Is there a cart in her distant future?
