Go Fetch!

Last night, out of the blue Dimples made a request.

'I want a pet', she said.

'A pet.' I repeated.

'Yes. We can go to the Zoo, and get a pet for me. Like a Lion or a Monkey. I will bring it home and when Giggles is sleeping I can play Fetch with my pet.'

I wonder if this has anything to do with me stopping her from playing Go Fetch with her little sister.

And who gets a pet from the Zoo? Not sure about Monkeys, but I have a feeling Lions will be offended.

  1. Aaaack about the lion! However my husband has always wanted a monkey for a pet, I just tell him why don't we just start having kids instead? Same thing right?

    And come on, just let blue dimples play fetch with giggles, I did it to my little sister and look how great we turned out!

    Wait...nevermind.

  3. No, monkeys don't drive you as crazy as kids do. You sisters looked great! Loved your vlog.

  5. Caca is such a funny word!
    My daughter wants to adopt a snow leopard. Maybe our pets could have a playdate.

  6. Well, the zoo close to us has a turtle exhibit. You could try playing that off...

    Turtles stink though.

    BUT they don't eat you or throw feces at you. So that's a plus.

  8. My son keeps asking us for a blue snapping turtle. I got him a stuffed one, after a long and involved search, and he said, "Mom, it doesn't snap! That's not real. I want a real blue snapping turtle." (Well, I want pink hair. Ain't gonna happen.)

  9. Well, tonight she declared she wants a baby dinosaur. I guess he will sleep in the minivan. There's no place in my house.

  11. It's fun to think about having a lion or tiger or monkey. A lot more fun to think about it than to really have one!
