The Cow?

The story about the cow begins with a dog. Ellen left her purple dog at Grandma's house. She needed a new one, a cuter one. :) So we thought it would be fun to take her to Build-A-Bear to find her a new puppy. It was awful. She hated the store...except for the computers and the hippo. Thus introduces the cow.

This is a cow, you may recognize it as a hippopotamus. Ellen has changed hippos into cows. The store was a traumatic event for Ellen and for us. Luckily we were able to start laughing at the strange, but normal, two year old behavior. It was quite the process have her get her hippo stuffed and switching it with the display. The other funny things is that they had some extra cow noises to put inside the cow. So this hippo "moos". She loved her hippo until...
THE BOX!!

She loved closing and opening the box.

Over and over.

Then pulling the hippo out...

...and stuffing her back in.
Then the hippo was much less exciting. Then her new aunt Alia, and cousin Fatima bought her a horse and the cow definitely lost it's position of being her new favorite animal. But fortunately for the cow and for me we have become new best friends! Any guesses on the cow's name?
