Aw... had my baby last June, and I loved every second of it... even the daily hikes over to clean out their barn and baby pen.

The little monkey was always trying to "help" me. I didn't halter till she was about a week or two - but that was more due to us having trouble finding the foal halters. We had pulled out a bunch, but none that were small enough (mom was HUGE and we expected a larger foal). Haltering was a non-event. Until then we just took mom out for her daily walk (and grass munch) and Narra followed along and tore around like a nut.
