Mango Makes a New Friend

  

Mango is a lazy little monkey, often sleeping the hours away until we are ready to go on some new adventure.He just loves his little basket bed.
 

Mango woke up to a little surprise ... a brand new little friend for him to play with. He was ecstatic! He has been wanting a buddy to have around for when mommy couldn't be... he gets lonely.

 Meet Cooinda the Koala. We got her from Build-a-Bear. Her name is Aboriginal, and it means "Happy Place" because she makes me smile and feel happy whenever I look at her.

They made fast friends, and began playing right away...... Mango says Cooinda can even share his rubber ducky Quacks. He must really like her, as he never lets ANYONE play with Quacks.

Mango goes to the Doctor

 Mango went with us to see my doctor. Dr. Beth is one of my favorite doctors I have. Mango was a little worried that maybe he would have to have some shots, but I assured him that this visit was just for me.

Mango was getting REALLY bored waiting to go see the doctor, so he found things to climb on for awhile. He was trying to play "peek-a-boo" with the receptionist but she was too busy to notice he was there.

Mango meets Dr. Bear. They got along really well, and Dr. Bear once again assured Mango that this visit was for his mommy and not for him.

Sitting with daddy waiting for the Dr. to come in. The magazines we all pretty old, so nothing interesting to read. I think Mango and daddy were looking around for something to get into!

Mango showing mommy just how you are supposed to sit on the examination bed. He was curious to get his blood pressure checked, but I told him that I don't think his stuffing would have much of a pressure to it.

Visit all over and now we are outside checking out the fountain. Its actually pretty cool, but I can't remember what the plaque says. Mango says it said "Blah blah blah blah". I tend to think it probably said a lot more than that.
With the doctors visit over we decided we were all really hungry so we headed to Quiznos.

Of course Mango couldn't decide what he wanted to eat so he instead decided to just pick off our sandwiches instead!

Mango Goes to Walmart

Not very exciting of course but one of Mango's first adventures was going to Walmart with us. He thought it was a bit nuts in there.. way too many people. A couple of people said "Hi" to him though, and said he was cute. He really liked that part. He also was fascinated by the fact that bananas just seem to grow on displays. We had to explain to him how they don't really grow there, and how the whole process of getting food to store works. He got bored about half way through... he just wanted bananas!

He was really caught up in how many there were but then he seen that they had smaller bananas and had to see them too.

Of course all that shopping made us all really hungry so we decided to show Mango what a drive-thru was and headed to Wendy's.

Mango comes home!

Mango is pretty new to our household, but is already making himself right at home, and causing trouble. We are looking forward to seeing all the many adventures this little guy is going to be dragging us into.

Mango is from Katy Texas. Never been there but one of these days maybe we will have to go there. It looks like a cute little place. Here are some pictures of the town taken from the web.

We are so glad the lady that created Mango decided to put him up for adoption. If you would like to have a monkey like Mango for yourself you can find them at ...http://www.etsy.com/people/Americansockmonkey
