Evan now has a baby orangutan. It goes with us everywhere. It’s imaginary.
It also has been in time out, was carried by me to the car, and every time Evan goes to bed, he asks from his top bunk, “Mommy, can you bring the baby here?” Then I have to pretend I’m picking up the orangutan and placing him in bed with Evan.
I’m glad we don’t have a pet.

How cute!!! An imaginary pet is better than a real one any day lol. Thanks SOO much for commenting on my DirecTV post. They have given us nothing but trouble. I’ll try your suggestion!

Does everyone at your house have baby fever?

You can have one of our cats.

Um, I’d be glad it’s imaginary, cuz we were just at the zoo and I saw what those orangutans do for fun. Not good.

Kasandria~ My pleasure. I dig an imaginary pet.
beth~ Shrek? Really? Wow. I don’t know if we would have room for a guest that size.
ck~ You can’t tell me ONE doesn’t want a baby. I know she does. Here. Let me ask. ONE, would you like a baby to play with?
Court~ I hear they make great hats
Gibby~ I would be one of those cold-heartless people who abandon it on the steps of the zoo when it got to adulthood. j/k I’d leave Evan with him too.

Hey I have my own imaginary pet……well, it’s virtual but close enough.

We haven’t had an imaginary animal yet, but it sure is hard enough cleaning up after all the stuffed animals and their “adventures”.

insider~ But does your go to bed with you?
NATUI~ Imaginary animals are WAY easier to take care of.
