Dino and Me

I would like to introduce you to my SECOND favorite toy.  Remember, Violet is my favorite and is my bedtime buddy.   My second favorite toy's name is DINO, the green dinosaur.  I may have told this story before, I'm not sure, but my mommy and sister Tracy took me to a pet store and let me pick out my own toy.  They set two toys on the floor and I got to pick.  Well, I picked out the green dinosaur that you can see on the fireplace hearth.  I was picked Dino up and was trying to walk out of the store, but they wouldn't let me.  I think they told me that is called stealing and that's not a good thing...bad, bad, bad.

When my mommy tells me to get my dinosaur, I run to my toy basket and pick him out.   I know the name of all my toys...Violet, Mr. Bumble Bee and Dino.  Now that I know how to play with toys, I will get Dino in my mouth and run, shaking my head back and forth.  Dino never gets mad at me and never says anything until lately.  When my mommy or sister holds Dino and then throws him, he/she will squeak, but it never has before when I pick him/her up until the other day.  My mommy threw Dino, I ran after him and all of a sudden I heard this loud squeak.  The squeak did not stay the same sound, it was loud, but then went fainter...it's hard to explain, but is a funny noise.  Anyway, it scared the crud out of me so I dropped him/her on the ground and smacked it with my foot and again, he/she made the same squeaking noise.  I looked up at my mommy and moved back.  The nice little green dinosaur who never said a word, suddenly is talking to me. It's as if he got tired of not talking to me.  I'm not sure what he is saying, but I've decided it is fun now to make Dino talk.  I just love my toys.
