New Pet

Hailey has her first pet.....we broke down and bought her a goldfish. She is in love with Elmo's World and Elmo's pet fish Dorothy. Basically, she's in love with anything that has a fish on it....plates, toys, TV, her fish aquarium in her crib, etc.

She was so excited when we walked into Pet Smart, which is huge anyway. We went straight to the fish and she was in awe of all the "real" fish. We walked around briefly looking at the different kinds and then decided to let her pick her goldfish. Now, I couldn't believe how many different types of goldfish there were. Of course we went with the 27 cent type, but they can cost as much as $30 for a fish. She wasn't so sure about the fish going into the bag, but when she got to hold it she was excited. She held the goldfish the whole way home. So to make a long story short, the fish is in the take, Hailey loves it, and Mommy isn't looking forward to cleaning the bowl (at least it's small.) Oh....and we named the fish Dorothy!

One little fish shouldn't dirty the bowl that much. I can't believe how long her hair is getting. When was the last time I saw you? Also, love her robe or j's or whatever she's wearing! So fun!!!
