Gilbys New Hidy Hole

Hi!
I have to post a quick one now cuz I have homework due today and i still have to type it up and send it off. So far I have all A's! Yay!
Gilby and Snuggles are doing good. It has been a week since....*thinking*....Saturday.
Those of you who have seen them know that there is only one hidy hole in the entire cage. A green tube that Glibert has pretty much eaten the paper within an inch of its life.
Anyway, the tube has sort of been taken over by Snuggles. So poor Gilbert had no place to go. Until Dad came home with a really nice wooden box with an arched door and round window. Gilbert was the first to get in and SLEEP in it! I came up to refill their water bottle and we was sound asleep until I unhooked the bottle from the cage bar.
It was adorable. So now they are across the street nabours and they each have their own little house.

'Our Little Babies' Have Arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello to everyone!

Sorry it has been so long since I last posted, life has gotten busy of late. Yes, the pigs arrived safely!!!! *smiles*

We went to go get them about 10 on Saturday and our friends put each at a time in a box. We drove all the way home listening to them make guinea pig sounds and the whole time poor Lele is trying to keep the boxes lid on cuz they where moving alot! Any way, we got home and made the grand home coming with everyone standing around and opened the box slowly to add to the moment. lol They got a chorus of "Oooo's" and "Ahhhh's", and then we took them up and introduced them to our room and their new cage. They smelled the green tube, the stuffed bear, the water bottle, the bowl and food, the alfalfa hay ,the bars, and all together everything. After we had watched them within an inch of their lives we moved out and got in some jammy pants (or at least Lele and I did, but hey it was raining all day! lol). Leah and I came back every hour to check on them and they did great all day long. The funny part was when Max met them...a whole day later! Almost. We decided to see how he did that night but we held onto his choke collar wile he sniffed and wined and so on and so forth. We got a kick out of that! =-]

I when to a while without holding mine cuz he was so squirmish...and their claws are SHARP! Yow! I still have a cut from Thursday. I also let him go nameless cuz I still wasn't settled on a name yet. But I finally settled on a name for him on Saturday night. This may seem odd, and I thought it was too considering I never even would have thought about it. So I was watching him and suddenly I thought of the name Gilbert. Yes, Gilbert. He actually looks like a Gilbert now too! So sometimes I call him Gilbi for for short.

Happy thing is you will all get to see them tomorrow night! So I don't have to post pics!
But I will anyway just for you and the suspense I am so sure I have built inside you! =-] So here they are: 'Our Little Babies' we like to call them.



Introducing: Gilbert (mine) and Snuggles (Lele's).......

....life and other things....

I'm baaaaack!
Hey, 'Brina'!
Yeah. Not only are we gonna have marsh mellows but we are gonna have s'mores!
We will provide all that though. KK?

I went to MOPS this morning and I was in the nursery.
They aren't really baby baby's but they rang from nursing baby's to walkers.
I love being with them. But every month there is someone who wants to be held and will cry if I put them down. My arms feel like they are gonna fall off when that happens! lol

I woke up yesterday morning with a soar throat and a head ache. By the end of the day I was running a fever and my skin hurt. I was pretty miserable. But this morning I felt better so I went to MOPS. And guess what. Now my throat hurts again. *gggrrr*

No, I never did clear out the barn today. I will tomorrow though wile the cage is drying.

Oh, next post I'll have to tell you all about our mouse adventure! Fortunately it was not in the house. But I have ta go. I smell french toast and bacon cooking!

Toodles!

Raving About 'Em "Pigs"!!!!

Hello everybody!
Still haven't gotten the guiny pigs yet.
We are gonna go pick em' up on Saturday morning.
Tomorrow after I get home from MOPS (no I'm not part of it, I just babysit =])I'm gonna be moving the barn to the basement. We won't have any room otherwise so the barn is out at last! I love the barn, but I'm getting older and I never play with it any more.
Anyway, on Thursday Lele and I are gonna clean out the cage we are borrowing cuz it's a mess and it needs to be hosed down really bad. And then (this is the part Lele and I are looking foreword to the most in means of getting ready for them) on Friday evening Mom, Lele and I are going to PetsMart to buy all the little guys are gonna need. Bedding, food, water bottles, food bowls, stuffed animals, hidey holes, toys, the works! =] I even have an outfit picked out for Saturday! (?!)
I'll be getting my paycheck this Friday too so I'm gonna cross fingers and hope to get this cute shirt at Fashion Bug. I'm gonna wear the same thing on Sunday to Youth Group.
Hey- It's at our house and we are gonna do it around the fire pit so dress like it!
You'll all get to see them too!
Don't have a name picked out yet. I'm gonna look on the Internet and see if there is a sight with names cuz I'm stumped!

Just an update: I'm sssssssoooooooooooo happy cuz I'm starting chapter 11 soon! yay! (If you're a writer you'll understand. =])

Big News and Big Responsibility

Hi bloggers & blog readers!
I have been dying to let out info to you all since Thursday, so here I go.
I don't know who knows that Lele and I have been praying and asking for a guiny pig each for almost the last year. Dad was not so keen on it but Mom was all game.
So on Thursday Mom and I are going to the Library and Beans, ok? All the kids where with my Dads mom for the whole day, So my Mom and I where gonna go spend the day together. Any way, on the way there she says: "Well, I have a little surprise for you."
I just kinda looked at her and smiled. I had no idea what it could possibly be.
And she says: "I have two little pets on hold from Mrs. C." (This 'Mrs.C 'nobody knows unless you go for assessments from her.)
I looked at her like she had grown two heads and a third eyeball and everything else unnatural. Obviously she knew that look because she started to laugh really hard.
She told me about a cage from someone at our church we where gonna borrow until we could get our own. By this time I started to wiggle and laugh and I even got teary eyed.
The mix of emotions was so thick I had a hard time concentrating. So I don't remember all that she told me. "There are only two little boys left from the litter. I know you wanted girls but it's a start. They are a few weeks old by now."

All the rest of the day that was all I could talk and think about. Literally. Just ask my Mom. We talked about the care of them at Beans, we talked about rules at the Library and I couldn't restrain myself from telling the mother of one of my friends who is a librarian too. I was so happy! But this morning I told my Mom that I was: "Being tortured like a kid who's favorite candy was being held right in front of her face but was held back from eating it."

And just about a half an hour ago Lele was told about them too. She started to cry and laugh and jump up and down (hey, I would have if I could but I was in a car!). We told Nate and the little girls and they started to jump like us.

We don't have them yet but we will be next Saturday.
THANK YOU, JESUS!!!!! =]
The highest ratings on names (between Lele and I at least) are Pippin and Frodo.
Mime would be Pippin, but we are not sure yet.
I'll post TONS of pics when they arrive!
Love you all!
YHanna
P.S.-Pleas pray for them to be kept save while we wait to go get them!
Tomorrow Leah and I will be working to get the borrowed cage clean
After the youth group outing. See you then! =]
