Funny is more and more like her brother!!!

 I love this little girl! She is reminding me more and more of Dan each day. Yet, she also has that sweet kind chill demeanor of Fleck too. :) She still comes up to you for snuggles/pets/kisses/hanging out. She is still super chill about most things. But, she is a little bit sassy! She has started grabbing things with her mouth.... like her blanket before I put it on her. Tonight she was chewing on Fleck's chest straps while I was putting her blanket on. And yesterday, she grabbed my bag hanging on the round pen and shook it about, spilling my phone, pivo, and gloves out! But, she's not quite as committed as Dan nor as extravagant as Dan. Whereas Dan grabs it and runs and is dramatic... she is much more docile about it. It makes me giggle though. 

Look at her cute little foot print in Dan's bigger footprint! AWWWWWw

Today we did a walk about with Dan. I rode him first for a little bit and then walked back down to the barn. She walked right up to us and I had the halter in my hand, so I just leaned down and haltered her from atop Dan. She was super! So then we went up the hill to the arena and around the back corner of the property and back up the little hill and back to the barn. She had one or two little tantrums where she was pulling back and threatening to rear, but I didn't lose her and she carried on. :) 

But poor baby girl has some sort of funk. She is so itchy! And she's getting bald patches on her face.. her armpits are raw and she's rubbed scrapes on her shoulder points. I've been putting equiderma on her and ordered coat defense. Hopefully it'll help. She looks rough. :) But she's still beautiful! And she grew again! She is now 14 hands at 9 months old! 

We probably need to start practicing hauling... and clipping... and.. then aim for a trail ride at Ashland :) Eeeks!
