Baby, the Gorilla

This is the story of Baby, the Gorilla, and how he became part of Randy's Homestead.

This story starts when the stork left this package on Linda's doorstep (Linda is a very nice lady). He had one picture with him. It was very crumpled with "mama 98" written on the back. The picture looks like Baby's Momma and it was probably taken in 1998. Linda smoothed out the picture and put it in a little frame for him. (See, I told you she was nice!)

Baby as he was left on the doorstep.

Without asking any questions, Linda took this little bundle of love into her home and adopted him as her own. She named him "Baby," and even though he has gotten older, the name still suits him fine. (Gorillas are pretty adaptable, so he could probably be re-named, but why?)

Baby has the sweetest personality. His little face just makes you want to hug him to pieces! He sleeps in his basket. He is quite well behaved. He eats bananas, bamboo leaves, grasses and flower petals for snacks.

He has two toy monkeys. One is a beanie-bag toy and the other is a finger puppet. He loves these. He also has a toy stuffed lion which probably reminds him of his former home.

One day Linda was out shopping with Baby when he saw a toy stuffed gorilla. He went absolutely crazy until Linda agreed to buy it. He thinks it is his mother! He will NOT let this toy out of his sight. He takes it everywhere. Even when he plays on the swings outside, he tags it along. (It does sort of look like the picture he came with.) He has to have this toy with him when he goes to bed at night.

Sadly, Linda was unable to take care of this little guy anymore. She needed to move, and the new place just doesn't have room for pets.

Baby has been adopted by Randy's Homestead. Right now, Baby is traveling from his old home with Linda to his new home with Randy. Although Baby and Linda will miss each other, with the magic of the internet, they will be able to visit all the time!

	So one chapter of Baby's life is closing, but a new chapter is just beginning. Come back for more adventures of Baby, the Gorilla!
