Or at least Henry's new home.
Tomorrow, we are going to be parents to a new little 5 week old guinea pig that Lola has already named Henry. We've only seen pictures of him so far, but he sure looks like a cutie. Today, we went and bought his cage, food, water bottle, etc...

What prompted Henry's arrival was a promise that Dan made to Lola. He really wants Lola to start sleeping in her own bed every night so he made her a deal. He promised that if she slept in her own bed every night for a week, she could finally have the guinea pig that she has been begging for. Relentlessly....for quite a while.
Well, it goes to show what the right motivation can do because Dan has never been successful in this arena before and believe me, he has tried! I think Lola was just finally ready for it now, as every morning she wakes up so proud of herself for making this big step.
That's Henry's story. We're excited to finally meet him tomorrow and we will post photos, of course. If all goes well, we will soon get him a companion. Lola has already named the companion Sam! We will probably need to build a new cage at that point. The one we have is 3 1/2 feet long, which will be ok for our little one, temporarily.

So much excitement. Such a big step for Lola. I wonder how we are going to do it. :)
