One of Emily's school friends brought two baby bunnies to school on Monday for show and tell. Guess what Emily is wanting????????
When she got home from school on Monday, she got the cat carrier down. She got several little carrots out of the fridge and she filled a bowl with water. Then she said, "let's go get a bunny."
I am thinking NO on the idea. I just don't like the idea of having to take care of a bunny. I am also afraid Kristen the cat might kill it.
Ever had a pet bunny?????
This morning I put some clothing items in the Rhea Lana consignment sale. This was my first time to do this. I got all sentimental and had to bring home a few of the items I had already registered. I just could NOT get rid of them yet.
And...for those who know me well, I took the girls to school and went to Rhea Lana without taking a shower. I wore a ball cap and the make-up still left on from yesterday. I know many of you will be proud of me for that.
Everyone gives me a hard time because I get up early and take a shower and get completely ready before taking the girls to school.

You always look like a million dollars everytime I see you. I'm sure you still look great this morning too. Glad to know you've stepped over to the none showered, greasy hair, left over make side :) At least for one morning!!
Bunnies are smelly & can be a pain to deal with, but they are SOOO CUTE!
stuffed is the way to go! :)
i agree with another commenter - the girls' pictures on kelly's blog are ADORABLE!
I have never had a bunny but think they are cute from a distance. If you get one I would love to look at yours!!! Emily seems to have such a BIG heart which shows what great parents she has. She has so much love for animals and seems to just want to take care of everything. That shows the love ya'll give her and the compassion for others. I think it says a lot about your parenting, I love it! I know that God is super proud of you and all that you are teaching your children, especially about caring for his creations!
As for bunnies, I'd go for the stuffed variety...
Love your blog. Came over from Kelly's. Your pot roast has become a family favorite at our house.
Last Easter the Easter bunny dropped off one of her babies for my daughter. She was thrilled and named her "Flowers".
Prior to adopting "Flowers" we contacted a friend who was great at building things. He constructed us an outside cage standing 4.5 feet tall and about 4 feet by 4 feet wide. The cage is complete with a loft bedroom for "Flowers" that we fill with cedar chips. We also have a small wire material on the sides and bottom, small enough so that Flowers can walk, but large enough that the poop can fall out! We rake out the poop from underneath the cage every couple of days.
This is a really easy pet, we just feed her once a day, make sure that she has adequate water and we let her out as well. We have a leash that we purchased at a pet store that she occasionally wears and wanders around the yard in, but mostly we just let her out and allow her to hop around.
The only downfall about rabbits is, is that you have to be really careful about their back claws when you are holding them, their back claws are razor sharp! I have been told that you can file them down, but we haven't been brave enough to attempt it!
Good luck in making the right decision for your family!
P.S. I couldn't imagine having a rabbit inside your home, they just poop way too much, if you decide to get one, try to keep it outside!
I had boy bunnies both times, umm, try to get a girl bunny. . . LOL
They were both really sweet and my cat was a kitten when I had the second one. He was curious but that was about it. I did let them hang out together and that worked for mine.
When I moved I had to give up my second one. A former teacher took him and they ended up building an outside area for him to play in as well as being indoors. He loved it!
They are great pets but you have to research them. Had I known about the cedar, I could have saved myself a very expensive surgery and an early entry into Heaven for Twain.
I am VERY proud of you for heading out without getting ready! Have you ever done that before? I remember when we went to the beach you would get up to shower and get ready before we headed to the beach! :)
