《Taylor Kayley Bailey》Oh yes mommy and daddy we do ever so much and we will feed them and play with them and help you take them for walks and help you bath them so please can we have a puppy or a kitten please, or maybe one of each please?
《Rowan》I look at Peyton, you know what girls mommy and daddy will be right back, they nod so Peyton and I get up and walk out of the playroom once we are out of the playroom we close the door, so what do you say let's get the girls a puppy or a kitten?
《Peyton》I mean do you think they are ready for that kind of responsibility?
《Rowan》Yeah I do, and we will be there to help them
《Peyton》Do we really have to get a dog and a cat or can it just be a dog or can it just be a cat?
《Rowan》I'm thinking something here just go with me on this but I was thinking if they choose a cat we can get three cats
《Peyton》That's nice one cat for each of the girls, but what of they choose a dog?
《Rowan》Well I was thinking if they do choose a dog we can get them one dog for each of the girls, so what do you say?
《Peyton》I say let's talk to the girls, she nods and we walk back into the playroom, hey girls mommy and I want to talk to you
《Taylor Kaley and Bailey》OK what is it?

《Taylor Kayley and Bailey》Really thank you thank you thank you so much mommy, daddy can we go now please? We look at our mommy and daddy, and then my mommy looks at our daddy and says
《Rowan》Well what do you say do you think it's time to go to the pet store?
《Peyton》Go get your shoes and jackets on, Rowan and I stand there and watch as the girls excitedly run out of the playroom, then I look at the mess of toys that are scattered around the playroom, I was going to call the girls back into the room to clean up the toys but Rowan put her hand on my shoulder and said
《Rowan》Don't worry about the toys right now they can clean them up when we get back, he nods and said
《Peyton》Your right come one let's go before the girls lose their minds, Rowan laughs and takes my hand and we walk out of the playroom to see the girls impatiently waiting by the front door, well are you 3 monkey's ready to go?
《Taylor Kaley and Bailey》Yeah, let's go let's, go, let's go
《Rowan》I laugh OK OK we're coming, we all walk out to the car and get in and head to the pet store, when we get there we get out of the car and walk into the pet store once we walk into the pet store the girls eyes light up like a Christmas tree, you see anything you like girls?
《Taylor Kaley and Bailey》We walk over to the cats, mommy, daddy look at the cute kittens
《Peyton and Rowan》Yeah they are cute, is that what you want a kitten? They didn't say anything all they did is run to the dogs, so we follow them, do you want a dog?
《Taylor Kaley and Bailey》We look back and forth from the puppies and the kittens but we can't decide what pet to get so we look at our mommy and daddy and say mommy, daddy can we get 2 cats and a dog please?
《Peyton》I-I was about to say something when Rowan touched my arm so I look at her, what's going on babe?
《Rowan》Can I talk to you? He nods so I look at the girls and say girls can you stay right here by the puppies cage while I talk to daddy? They nod roo I take Peyton by the hand and walk a bit away from the girls when I know the girls are busy playing with the puppies, I look at Peyton and say Ithink if the girls want a dog and two cats we can get them for them
《Peyton》You know your a big softy when it comes to the girls
《Rowan》I shrug and say they are my daughters to what can I say I love them, so what do you say two cats and a dog?
《Peyton》I look at the girls and then I look back at Rowan god why is it so hard to say no to you 4, let's go tell them they are getting 2 cats and a dog, we walk back over to the girls and see that they are playing with the animals, hey girls mommy and I have something to tell you
《Taylor Kaley and Bailey》What's that mommy, daddy?

《Rowan》Thank you and you too bye, we head out to the car and get the cat supplies in the car then we get the girls and their cats in the car and then I get in the car and I thought Peyton was going to get in the car so we can go home, but he looked at me and said
《Peyton》I'll be right back, Rowan looked at me with a puzzling look but I didn't say anything all I did was walk back into the pet store and walk up to the cashier's desk, umCrystal right?
《Crystal》Yes that's me, oh no did I forget to put something in the bag?
《Peyton》Oh no, no you didn't, I need your advice on something
《Crystal》Sure what's that?
《Peyton》I saw how upset Rowan got when the girls didn't pick dogs and I want to get Rowan a dog but I don't want a dog that will grow to big
《Crystal》Ah yes I know exactly what dog your looking for, some with me, he follows me over to the dogs and I pick out a short hair chihuahua, she has short hair so when she sheds the hairs are very small she's very cuddly she will lie on the couch with your or Rowan or the girls, this breed is yappy but you can train them not to bark that much they have to go on walks once or twice a day they don't like to be alone for that long, is she the one you want?
《Peyton》Actually I want to get her two dogs she deserves it for all the hell she's went through in her life
《Crystal》Wow can I just say you are a much much better man for Rowan then Jake ever was he would never gotten her a dog none alone two dogs, so away do you want two chihuahuas?
《Peyton》Yes please, she nods and picks up the second chihuahua, and we walk to the cashier's counter, and she puts the puppies in a big dog carrier
《Crystal》You are lucky you have two girl puppies, I'll be right back I'm going to get the puppy supplies, he nods and I got get the puppy supplies once I have all the puppy supplies I walk back the cashiers counter, OK I got the puppy supplies I put them on the counter, you have four food bowls four water bowls one double dog bed one bag of Blue Buffalo dog food and one case of Blue Buffalo wet dog food, the wet dog food is just in case they don't like the dry dog food, he nods so oh and lastly the dogs toys I ring up the stuff that will be $18,44
《Peyton》Thank you and here you go, I pick up the puppies and the big bag and head back to the car, as I'm putting the dogs things in the car I realized I can't hide the puppies from Rowan so I take the puppies to Rowan's side of the car and I knock on the window and just with that little motion it made Rowan jump and rolls down the window and she's says
《Rowan》Peyton where did you go?
《Peyton》Oh um I had to use the bathroom
《Rowan》Well come on let's get in the car and go home
《Peyton》We will but first close your eyes, once she has her eyes close I open her door then I open the dog carrier and pick up the puppies, I see out of the corner of my eye the girls are going to squeal but I put my finger to my lips signaling for them to be quiet they nods then I hear Rowan say
《Rowan》Peyton why do I hear barking? We don't have dogs we have cats
《Peyton》Open your eyes baby, when she opens her eyes she squeals and takes one of the puppies and she says
《Rowan》Peyton where did you get the puppies?
《Peyton》In the pet store behind me
《Rowan》Well duh I know that, what I mean is that the girl already choose cats as their pets
《Peyton》They aren't for the girls
《Rowan》Are they for your baby sister Daisy? Peyton I think she a little to young for the responsibility of two dogs
《Peyton》They are not for Daisy and they are not for my brothers either and before you jump to conclusions I'm not cheating on you
《Rowan》OK, OK I give up who are these sweet puppies for?
《Peyton》They are for you
《Rowan》What really why?
《Peyton》Rowan I seen the way you were looking at the puppies when we were getting the cats for the girls, and you have been the light in mine and the girls lives since the day met I just wanted to do something to so you how much the girls and I appreciate you and I thought the best way to appreciate you is to get you dog, and your sister and Sabrina might have told me that you you have always wanted to have a pet of your own but when you were with Jake he never let you have a pet
《Rowan》Peyton they are beautiful and they are my favorite breed of dog chihuahuas
《Peyton》So will you except the puppies?
《Rowan》Are you kidding me of course I want them, come here babies
《Peyton》Here let me put them back in the dog carrier, she nods and I take the puppies from Rowan and put them back in the dog carrier and hand the carrier to Rowan and close the door and walk around to my side of the car and we head home
《Rowan》Peyton I love the dogs but we don't have things for them we only have things for the cats
《Peyton》We have things for the dogs to they are in the trunk along with the cats stuff
