Amy's new obsession

For her birthday, Garnet received Littlest Pet Shop pets. These have become my new obsession. They are really cute with tiny bodies and big heads, they remind me of these tiny dolls I had when I was a little girl. They also come with all these miniscule accessories, like bars of soap and blow dryers and stethoscopes. I love the littlest pets and it's fun to play with them with Garnet (but not while Ysa is around; she is Babyzilla). So Garnet already has about nine pets and a house and animal hospital, but I went to Walmart the other night while the kids were sleeping (don't worry, Steven was there, I wouldn't leave them by themselves) and couldn't resist buying more. I bought five sets and not all with Garnet in mind. I specifically bought the seahorse and aquarium for me. I only gave her two though, I'm saving the other three for Christmas. I know it seems silly but for so long we've had to either play "dinosaurs" or pretend to be characters from her favorite movie of the week. To have some variety is very exciting. Garnet and I can't wait for our chances to get together and play Littlest Pets. Her favorite is a gray kitten; I am partial to the mice. Wow, I think I need to get out more...
