"These days, it's home to three dogs, a cat, a hamster, two chinchillas and a cockatiel. Previously, her family has had turtles, rabbits, fish and a chicken. "I draw the line at snakes, though," Corral said. "We're not going there." But as much as her family loves animals, she still was surprised when a show on the Animal Planet channel mentioned foster families for adoptable animals.

Among those themes is the idea that "this is a man who constantly put others first," Harris said."

"So, today my boyfriend got a baseball cap from his secret santa. There's a story behind it, but it's long... and I'm not going to go into it. Let's just say that my boyfriend finds very weird things funny. Anyway, I put Bella down on the counter next to the hat and she proceeded to climb up on it. I'm not one to let a photo opportunity like that slide by!

This is my hat now, dammit!


"Mommy thought that when she put that hat on that I would get off. Nope!"


Excuse the quality of the pics. The first one was taken with my boyfriend's phone and the second with mine (his is considerably better lol).
