Default Another (stuffed) bird bites the dust (BW)

Mattie, my newest addition, somehow managed to get into my beanie baby
collection. I'll never figure out how - it is high up and she can't
jump more than about 20 inches. In any event, I came home to her
killing the stork. And carrying it around like a dead bird. I swear she
looked so proud that she had killed the thing. She carried it around
all evening long. It must have occasionally moved on her because she
would take to bouts of kicking it vigorously to make sure it was really
dead and then she would pick it up and carry it around some more. It
was all the more hysterical because it carried just like a dead bird and
yet was half her size. I wish I could have gotten pictures.

The stork, this morning, is none the worse for wear, I don't think.
She's ready to be killed again should that need to happen.

LOL! That sounds so cute! Orion had a rather unhealthy attachment to my
daughter's sweat pants. He would carry them around by the drawstring, growling
low, like he was dragging a gazelle or something.

ROFL!

Sounds like the 'Death Of The Stork' was pretty entertaining.
Glad it's okay though, and still part of the collection.

Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday Bridget!

I'll be holding a sign that says:

and I'll hopefully be standing next to a tall good looking
blond guy (my husband) since he knows his way around airports
better than I do.

OMG! That's hilarious!! What if your daughter was wearing them?
Would Orion try to take them away from her?

Cats are so comical.

In our household, the beanie babies belong to the cats.

Luna does that with a snake. She *loves* that thing.

Oh, it probably will. Basho has a couple of favorite prey toys, a
buffalo beanie baby and a chipmunk I got him in Colorado in September.
