Stinky

A lot of you may be familiar with Alexis' favorite frog security 'blanket', Stinky. He has been around since day one, and she sleeps with him every night. When she was younger, he also joined us everywhere we went.


WELL... Stinky has been in trouble lately because he has been sneaking out of the house at night and going on vacation!! At first we noticed that he just looked tired, and were wondering why, but then Alexis started to get letters and pictures in the mail from all of Stinky's awesome trips! It turns out that Stinky hasn't been getting much sleep due to his nocturnal travels. Here are some of the pictures that he mailed to Alexis...

Stinky on the airplane, on his way to Italy... and then throwing up in the airplane sickness bag! There is also a picture of Stinky eating some gelato in Rome.


Here is another picture of Stinky by the sea in Greece... and overindulging in wine in Sicily!


Then something super exciting happened... in his last letter, Stinky told us about his cousin, Winky, that he hung out with in Greece. We all hoped that Winky would visit as promised in the letter. So today when we got home from work, guess who was waiting outside of our door??! Cousin Winky!! He looks almost exactly like Stinky, but he is a little bit fluffier, a little bit greener, and has rosy red cheeks. Alexis about fell over with excitement at Winky's surprise arrival!



Stinky looked tired again this morning, so we are all assuming that he snuck out again, and will hopefully send some more letters and pictures to show us where he has visited. Stinky is always looking for a fun vacation idea, so be sure to let us know if you hear of any fun places for him to visit!
