Lots of snow today, and wind and REALLY cold temps.  Looks like its not getting above 20 for the next couple days.  Things have been steady, Poppi is going on little walks here and there to get him out of his stall and stretch his legs.  He was doing good, until yesterday when he decided to rear on me twice and then canter in place for no reason except that he must have been happy to be out of his little jail cell.  Poor thing.  Needless to say, that was the end of his walk and back into the stall he went.  Naughty boy.  Today, he decided to walk himself out of his stall WITHOUT my assistance AND without his halter on.  He went right on over the hay and started eating because of course, he owns the barn.  I made his ultrasound appt today and continue to pray that they see only good things when he goes for his visit.  He seems to be doing really well, but I can't see whats going on inside of him, and that scares me.  His belly is still VERY loud and makes lots of noise, which I was told was a good thing.  Now I just have to keep his weight in check so that he doesn't get a hay belly.  Rozzi was Mr cuddle bug today and just would not leave me alone in the barn, so i took the clippers out and got to work on one of his legs.  He looks like a little clydsdale, you would not believe how much fur he has on his fetlocks and legs.  So he now has one clipped leg, and three unclipped which looks pretty cute.  I had to stop to give the clippers a break from all the hard work!  But what was great, is that he stood there in his stall, no halter or lead rope, and pretty much supervised the clipping of his fetlock hair.  After a few attempts to chew on the cord to the clippers, he finally realized that it may be better to just stand there and enjoy.  And so he did.  I can only pray he remains this laid back and calm... hooves crossed... Fanci and Codi are content and staying out of trouble for now... I think they are officially BF and GF, although it is a love/hate relationship.   =0)
