Introducing PomPom Emma Spots.

SpongeBob and Trex passed away. (Shh.. Iva doesn't know, but we accidentally cooked one in the AZ heat and think the other died of being lonesome?) Iva waited quite awhile before she was ready for a new guinea pig. Once she decided she was ready, we began the search. She picked Pom Pom Emma Spots and loves her. She is a good little guinea pig and puts up with a lot. 

Sponge Bob and T Rex

Iva still absolutely loves her guinea pigs. She has prayed twice for the guinea pigs during sharing time. She drew them on her title of liberty of being what is most important to her. And she said she can prepare to go to the temple by taking care of her guinea pigs. She is obsessed to say the least.

Sponge Bob

Before we got pregnant, I was begging Shawn for another dog. Once we got pregnant, he said no way! Then things changed and I was back to begging for a dog. I think Shawn felt a little sorry/sad for me and gave in (sort of). He did a lot of research and said we could get a guinea pig instead. 

Sponge Bob has been taken over by the kids though. Iva LOVES him. The second she wakes up she is getting him out to hold. She can get him out of his cage now and that has been amazing. No more getting him in and out for me. Charlie is a little jealous and has had a couple rough encounters with Sponge Bob. Sponge Bob is a trooper though and just is a happy content guy. Did you know guinea pigs/ cavys don't bite? We sure are lucky and happy they don't. Charlie would probably been chomped a few times by now.
