Six months...

Rachel and I took Layla to get her picture taken a couple of weeks ago. Here are a few of my favorites. I dunno...I think she's kinda cute. :)


A rare smile (she wasn't too sure about this whole deal).
This might be my favorite. 
Pouty Face
 Not sure about the crazy photographer
I am actually hiding behind the couch, holding her up (it wasn't easy).
 Pretty baby
 Yep, I can stand too.
 Hi toes!
 Okay, I've had enough of this!

How do you get rid of an unwanted Pet?

Pets...Pests....Same letters.  Hmmmm.
 In my house we have several pets. 
There's the dog.  Fonzie.  AKA The Fonz.


And Ginger, the cat, appropriately named, who thinks she's human.

Chuck the cat, a girl, not a boy, also known as Scaredy Cat

And her sister (we think), Francis, a tortoise shell cat who's afraid of nothing.

 

And this guy...an actual tortoise, as of yet unnamed.   

 

These are all fine pets.  We get along swimmingly.  They do their thing, we do ours, just one big happy family.
There's another pet that lives in our house though.  And I don't care for this one much at all.  This pet's name is PEEVE. I wish we could put Peeve on KSL...."free to good home".  I doubt anyone would want Peeve though.  Peeve's not much fun to play with, and rather messy. 

Peeve always leaves the dish cloth in the sink, and then dumps food and yucky stuff all over it until it gets nice and stinky.  Gross! 

 Peeve never puts the dishes in the dishwasher either.  In the sink, near the dishwasher, but not IN the dishwasher.  Even when it's wide open screaming "feed me!!". 

Peave leaves the drawers and door open all the time.  It's amazing I haven't killed myself on one....yet.  It's inevitable I fear. 
And when the garbage can is full, Peeve just keeps piling more stuff on top until it spills over.  I guess Peeve  figures someone else will take it out? 
 Don't even get me started about the gum wrappers Peeve leave in the pantry.  (*sigh*) (Shockingly, there weren't any when I wanted to take a picture. LOL)
  
So how do you get rid of an uwanted pet?  Is there such thing as a pet Peeve exterminator?  Now there's an idea.  How much would you be willing to pay for such a service?  I might be on to something lucrative here. :)
