HELLO EVERYONE!
I’ve missed YOU!
I guess my guys at the farm could not wait a moment longer…and they scanned me this morning. I just had to share the news with you!
I AM IN FOAL!
This is my 15 day scan! From what I am told, everything looks fabulous and solid. The embryo looks to be a good size. So, at this time, everything is WONDERFUL!
I will be rescanned at about 28 days and if that is all A-OK, my next scan will be at the 40-42 day time period from the date I was bred. As Dottie explained to you earlier, the latter scan is really very important. If all is perfect at that time, then I am pretty well on my way in my pregnancy. This is all so exciting and so new to me! I JUST LOVE IT!
David actually called Dottie at 4:33 this morning (California time) to tell her the news! She immediately ran to the computer to type up the announcement for YOU!
I truly hope you enjoy sharing these moments with ME and going through all of these different stages that I am experiencing in my life.
Hmmm! I just had a thought! Lately, I have been craving BANANAS. It seems like that is all I’ve been thinking about for the last few days! I guess this could explain why. Dottie tells me craving some type of food is very normal for humans while pregnant. Maybe it is for horses like me too! This is TOO CUTE!
Oh my! I better contact BERNIE and let him know the good news! I’m sure he will also be very excited!
WOW! I’M IN FOAL! I’m really embarking upon an entirely new stage of my life and career. As you can imagine, I’M JUMPING FOR JOY!
HOOVES CROSSED for the news on my next scan to be just at POSITIVE!
With Love,
HUGS and Big Kisses to All~

ME…IN FOAL! YIPPEE!

Good grief, I sort of feel silly how excited I am. I’m a grown woman with tears AGAIN because of you! Only posted twice in my life, anywhere. The first was to you on the night you won HOY, and now. I am in awe of you and your people and love you so much. So happy for you Zenyatta. No horse since Secretariat ever captured my heart like you. Awesome news!

Now, we can all wait and pray that everything goes smoothly and that sometime early next year, you will safely deliver your baby and that all will be well. Thanks Dottie, for keeping us all up to speed on this. How wonderful to know that a new heart is beating inside our beautiful girl. May God bless you all and keep you safe.

Dearest Zenyatta, Perhaps we might now call you “The Queen Mum”. Love the idea posted above calling the foal “Wee Z”, at least for the next 11 months. Too cute! What a joyful day for all of us who love you so very much. Dottie, thank you for being the thoughtful bearer of Zenyatta’s news. What would we do without your kindness?!?
Robin
I am SO happy for you and Bernie! I can’t stop crying! God Bless BOTH of you and keep you safe Zenny!! Just think of how many God Parents you are going to have! Your fan base keeps growing and growing! LOVE you big girl!! MUAH!!! XOXO
