Rachel, my equine vet came by today and gave Kitt her final ultrasound. It was so cool, all of the parts are there. She's a little over three inches long and she has a head, a neck, a body four little legs and a teensy tail. Her little heart was beating and we saw her liver, brain and spine. Her little tummy and legs are so cute.
Rachel said, "oh look, there the definitive female marker." Well folks, I guess she knew what she was looking at, but it didn't look like any female body part I've ever seen, but then what do I know?
Little Miss Pixie (That's her nickname, because I haven't decided what her fancy pants registered quarter horse name will be,) was not happy with the whole ultrasound process. Every time Rachel would move it close to her, Pixie would kick her little legs and try to swim away. "Well isn't she the feisty one," Rachel kept saying. "She doesn't like this at all."
Poor Kitt who was having all of this done rectally, wasn't too thrilled with the process either. But the equine grandmom and aunties, two of my best friends who have known Kitt forever and were there, were beside themselves. Little Pixie is so cute and I can hardly wait for May.
PS: I videoed this with my Nikon P80 and somehow the film was erased. I didn't do it. It happened in my purse. Does anyone have a clue how this happened.
WHOO HOO! Girls are the best! I would much rather ride mares. Husband is a gelding guy. He says he hates to ride anything smarter than him. Amazing activities in your purse. I have never had that happen.
