Where's the Deer?

Brooke has a mounted deer head that was at his mom's while we lived in the apartment. Mylee hated it at first, but then Brooke would hold her and pet its nose with her and she didn't mind as long as he had her.

Almost a month ago, while we were moving into the new house, I was sitting on the couch and Mylee was standing in front of me, and all of a sudden she started screaming and panicing--scaring us to death. Usually nothing phases her so we thought she was hurt. After realizing she was ok, I noticed that Brooke had brought the deer head in while moving and had just laid it in a chair, so my poor baby just turned around and saw it "staring" at her. We tried to hide the deer but she knew where it was, so if we even started to walk in that direction, she would cry. I say we....if Brooke had her, she was okay....but she would still tense up.

Fastforward to about two weeks ago...Brooke decided the perfect place for that deer head (until he can get a bigger one...lol) is above our rock fireplace (it does look good there even though the pretty fall wreath I had there ended up on the floor when he was done). Mylee LOVES it now. We say "Where's the deer?" and she just gets so excited and laughs and points. It's so funny. She is like that about any animal (now that the deer trauma seems to be over). I think she is going to be an animal lover like her big sister Kendall!
