Meet POKEY


So for some reason while we were in St George last weekend we decided we want a hedgehog.
So when we got home we got one!!
This is Pokey and he is so cute! I had never even seen a hedgehog before, but they are pokey! Just like Kyle when he doesn't shave.  Sometimes Pokey thinks Kyle is his mother :)

Over the years our house has had:
Dogs
Cats 
Fish
Frogs
Parakeets
 a Horney Toad
Rabbits
a Boa Constrictor
the Duck I rescued
litters of Gerbils
Rats
a couple Iguanas
a Chinchilla
Turtles
and why not count the Horse that stayed at my grandpas house
and I am sure the list goes on!  But never a hedgehog, so I'm excited to have him.  Heck maybe one day we will get another snake.  I don't know if I will say yes to every animal my kids ask for quite like my mom did, but I think it's fun to have a few around.  Lucky for us, Pokey isn't even stinky!

We gave him a bath with a toothbrush and feed him treats, but mostly he just likes to hide.

  2. OH cute little Pokey!! Caden already refuses any pet expect a fish. We'll just wait and see if Maggie gives him sad eyes and cries. Or maybe i'll just talk him into a hedgehog :) (by the way, super jealous you went to Bryan Reagan! We wanted to go!)
