My dream pet is a baby mordo! But why is my dream pet a baby mordo?

[img]http://images.marapets.com/pets/Mordo_baby.gif[/img]

Well my dream pets relate very closely to my life. For example, my previous dream pet was my valentine figaro Matrimonial. I worked very hard for her indeed, but I thought she would be the perfect tribute to my marriage (I am a newlywed, got married 8 months ago), and so I put in lots and lots of effort and am so proud of her.

The baby mordo is now my ultimate dream pet for a very special reason. As well as being so absolutely adorable, my husband and I have just decided (last month) that we are going to try for a baby this year. We have had such a fantastic start to our marriage, he really is the love of my life, and we have 2 beautiful kitties (Precious and Belle), but we have decided now its time to share our love and lives with a baby. We are both very excited at this decision and now everywhere we go and everything we do, we imagine having a baby with us.

I'm not a huge fan of the other baby pets, but I LOVE the baby mordo and so feel a baby mordo would be the perfect tribute to our baby plans, and hopefully soon, our pregnancy! (Fingers crossed!! ) It just looks so cute and sweet and I just want to snuggle it! I have made my pet Babian with intentions of him becoming the baby mordo, as I think the name is as cute as the mordo itself. The best way I can think is turning him mordo and then putting him through the temple to get him to baby, but of course this will be expensive :S And Im scared of starting because I don???t want to fail on something that would mean so much emotionally to me.



A real story in picture-based form:

[IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/2ai3490.png[/IMG]




A poem related to Babian:
A growing love

A woman smiles as she walks by,
As she has to desperately try,
To keep her plans a secret for now,
Whilst her friends are still wondering how,
In a matter of weeks she went from sullen to glee,
Now finally she looks so happy.

There is a passion and desire,
That makes her heart feel on fire,
Yet she knows it???s a want so positive,
Knowing that it???s her love to give.

She shares her life with the one she loves,
A husband she feels was sent from above,
They share a love so magical and unique,
That just seems to grow from week to week.

You may think it???s just a marriage,
But to them it???s more than just a horse and carriage,
The vows they spoke mean the world to them,
And they repeat them to each other again and again.
They still giggle as they recap the words,
Remembering how they were full of nerves.

But from a marriage, their dreams are born,
And all they think about now from dusk to dawn,
Is the prospect of growing their little family,
Of a copule, 2 cats and maybe a baby.

They have so much love to devote and share,
Whilst also providing a life of care,
To a baby that they could proudly call their own,
And they provide a love with a nurturing tone.

So they have started trying for a baby indeed,
Which will open the doors to a new life to lead.
They are so excited, that much is true,
But a secret to be kept between just a few.

They eagerly await the day the test says ???positive???,
And then they would soon have news to give,
To their family and friends, a joy to share
But its news to be treated with great care,
They know they must be secret just to be safe,
Even though excitement is written all over her face
Her friends are keen to hear the reason for the smiles,
But deep down they know they may be waiting a while.

Deep down she realises her friends know the secret too,
But looks forward to the day she can tell more than few,
That inside her grows a bundle of joy,
But which is it, a girl or a boy?!


So, there you have it - my poem about me and my husband! You may have guessed by now that my dream pet is a baby pet, a baby mordo to be exact. I have created my pet Babian with the intentions of turning him into my precious baby mordo one day, hopefully soon. I relate my pet goals to my life and give them representation. He would represent the new chapter in our lives of trying for a baby. Hence why he, as a baby mordo, would be my dream pet Adore I think his name is perfect!





One day, I get sent a wonderful gift from someone very kind!

[IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/10n886h.png[/IMG]




Babian was then just a regular red fasoro, nothing special.

[IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/1zqaghz.png[/IMG]





Excitement about using such an item for such a special meaning!

[IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/10wl35x.png[/IMG]





Selecting Babian as the special pet!

[IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/2zimutu.png[/IMG]





Babian is transformed!

[IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/2vukejb.png[/IMG]





Babian in all his new glory; now one massive step closer to being a baby mordo!

Seriously, I just got mega excited at the supermarket because I was buying a new laminator. It's not even my first laminator, but I was still mega excited. It is A3 size though! Ninja Hehe!

Been spending days decorating my new classroom in my new school, I need to get a life.....

And I think we all need some uplifting on mara!

A bit of beckground information about my pets! Adore


Aeroclipse
[img]http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_starry.gif[/img]
I was lucky enough to win this beauty in a giveaway, but back then she was an ice-cream mordo. In my app, I said how much I would want to use a starry costume on her if I won because I thought it would be the perfect match for her name. So of course, when I won, I started saving immediately. However before I managed to save the whole 10 mil for the costume, I realised that actually I preferred the starry chibs to the starry mordo and so I made a big decision to make her a starry chibs instead. And low and behold, there she sits Smile
You can see my special blog for her here:
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=373237


Allandra
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Rofling_pink.gif[/img]
My first ever Roffling.
She was genie when I got her, but I really didn???t like the costume, and of course I adore pink and so I costumed her pink. I think she looks awesome. I???m attached because it took me like 7.5 years to get her, my first roffling. However I don???t like her name much, so I plan to either rename her or trade her for a different one eventually. I have bought a fairy costume to use on her, but I???m undecided if that???s what I want to do. For now though, she just looks pretty as she is!


Angelines
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_angel.gif[/img]
When I traded for her, she had a beautiful name but unfortunately I fail to remember what it was. I changed her name to Angelines straight away because I liked the name and always try to match names to costumes. I then mailed her previous owner to let them know her previous name was available again, if they wanted it. I think she is so pretty. She does not represent anything / anyone in particular. I just think she is adorable!


Babian
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Fasoro_red.gif[/img]
My most precious and important pet. Yes OK, you???re probably wondering why. Nope, he has no stats. Nope, he has no learnies and no, hes not a LE with a fancy costume either. He is just a red fasoro. BUT what he will be is the most precious to me. He will one day be a baby mordo. This is my ultimate dream pet. This is because my husband and I are trying for a baby (eeek! ) and I felt that because the baby mordo is the cutest baby pet, that he would be the best representation of this chapter in my life. He will NEVER be for trade. For NO amount of rofflings etc.
Here is a special blog about him:
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=369980


Beautifol
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Vixen_baby.gif[/img]
Another incredibly special pet to me, for similar reasons to that of Babian. However I was lucky enough to win this gorgeous pet in a giveaway in which I put my heart and soul into my app. When I won her, her name was Lyndan. I have since renamed her to Beautifol and moved the name Lyndan onto my hobo chibs. She is NEVER for trade. Don???t even ask. If you ask, you will be blocked straight away.
Here is her special blog:
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=375289


Brattish
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Figaro_baby.gif[/img]
Not much of a fan of this one. Although the name is a great match for the costume, it doesn???t fit in with my representations and symbolism. So she is up for trade. I might just trade her for a different names baby fig, I???m undecided yet.


Celyn
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_millionaire.gif[/img]
Of course she is a representation of me. My name is Holly. I am Welsh. ???Celyn??? is Welsh for Holly Smile The poor darling is stuck in a millionaire costume for now because I have been undecided with what to costume her. I???m now set on the motion that she needs to be a seasonal chibs, to match her name. She will be going through the temple for this reason at some point in the future. She is NEVER for trade. I get more mails asking if she is for trade than any of my other pets.


Chalyze
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_minipet.gif[/img]
The newest member to my mara family. You can probably tell that I adore ercuws. I have so many of them. When I first joined, my dream pet was a fire ercuw, then a wizard ercuw etc and I just love ercuws, I think they???re adorable. I???m really pleased to have Chalyze as part of my family. I over offered for him and for now he is staying with me, but I???m not sure if I will be keeping him forever.


Cherese
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Mordo_love.gif[/img]
A very generous gift from my friend Jake Adore I think she is just absolutely delightful, and her name is so wonderful. When I saw the alert saying Jake had sent her to me, I was so excited, I couldn???t believe it. I am one lucky girl to have such amazing friends. She is NOT for trade. Don???t ask. Thanks Jake!


Dahrling
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Willa_baby.gif[/img]
I adore this little sweetie so much. I love her pink sock and her name. I had wanted to use this name for so long and was pleased for it to be used on my sweet baby willa. She is the only willa I???ve ever owned. She represents all that my other baby pets represent. However she was my first ever baby pet and so she is that little bit more special. Not for trade!


Darlue
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_baby.gif[/img]
I had my eye on this little chibs for a while. It took me quite some time to finally manage to trade for her, but I???m so happy. I think her name is a great match for Dahrling???s name and I love that they sit together, as baby siblings. She is not for trade either.


Educators
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_wizard.gif[/img]
The first ever pet that I created when I joined mara. My second dream pet. When I created him, his name was Leon_Ashley. Although these were my favourite boys names at the time, I decided for a pet that I worked so incredibly hard on, he deserved to be what is considered as ???well-named??? and she he underwent a name change. As a teacher, I feel that I???m constantly putting on a performance every day in the classroom and for this reason, I decided to turn him into a representation of my job and so named him ???Educators???. I am very happy with this name change. I love this pet ??? NOT for trade. Ever.


Fazed
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Sindi_love.gif[/img]
This cute little sindi is a representation of the feeling I get whenever my husband looks at me. It sounds cheesy, but it???s true. I feel so ???Fazed??? every time. He looks at me with such love in his eyes that it just really throws me off whatever I am doing. And likewise, when I look at him, I mean really look, it surprises me just how much I love that man. I really do feel fazed by him. And this is why I think the love costume is perfect for such a name.


Fidelma
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_underwater.gif[/img]
I got Fidelma soon after I got married. Her name reminds me of the word ???fidelity??? and so she reminds of one of our special vows that we made to each other and how important fidelity is in a marriage. I???m hoping another romantic looking costume will be released for the ercuw. I would have used a valentine costume, but I already have a valentine ercuw who is special to me so fingers crossed for something similar! NOT for trade.


Finlia
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Kujo_toy.gif[/img]
I won this sweetie in a giveaway (thank-you Andy! ). In my app I said how much I would want her to be a baby kujo as I think that???s the cutest costume for Kujo and as she has such a pretty name, she deserves an equally pretty costume. So, I???ve been working hard to put her through the temple and she will one day (soon, hopfully) be a baby kujo. She is NOT for trade.
You can read about her temple journey here:
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=375306


Flammables
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_fire.gif[/img]
The second pet I ever made on Mara. Her name used to be Chelsea-Leigh. When I was little I used to call all my dolls ???Chelsea-Leigh???. I had no idea why. It wasn???t until I got a bit older that my mam told me when she was pregnant with me, she wanted to call me ???Chelsea???, but she changed her mind. I found this odd. The fire ercuw was my big dream pet when I first joined mara and she was my first LE ever. I was and still am very proud of her. She took a lot of time and hard work (of course we had no temples back then) and I???m very happy. I re-named her to ???Flammables??? a while back as I felt she deserved to be classed as ???well-named???. NEVER for trade!


Hollybeary
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Snookle_seasonal.gif[/img]
A gift from Elf, Christmas 2012. She was male when I had her, but I used a concoction to turn her female. She reminds me of one of my good friends who always called me Holly Berry, a play on words from Halle Berry. And also because Holly has little red berries.


Infancy
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Speiro_dark.gif[/img]
I paid 600k for this name in pet auctions. I plan to do a name swap and use this name on my toddler basil Smile I love this name


Inspiration
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_old.gif[/img]
To begin with, this chibs was just a lovely old chibs with a great name. However she now holds a representation in my life. My granddad got diagnosed with cancer a few months back at the young age of 65. I then found out its terminal. However he???s been fighting really hard to try and beat it for a little longer. His strength has inspired me so much that I am incredibly proud of him. He really has become my inspiration; I wish I could be as strong emotionally as him. And so my pet Inspiration is a representation of what my granddad brings to my life. However, as a female pet, I plan to make her male in the near future. NOT for trade.


Keani
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_mermaid.gif[/img]
I over offered for her many, many years ago as I adored the mermaid pets so much, and was desperate for a mermaid ercuw. I have had many offers for her over the years, some of which I accepted in mail, but when it actually came to pressing the ???accept offer??? button, I couldn???t do it. I even had a few major over offers. I will be keeping this little sweetie forever.


Lyndan
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_hobo.gif[/img]
I wanted a hobo chibs for a while and managed to achieve that goal a few years back. I think they are so sweet. Then when I won the pet Lyndan the baby vixen in a giveaway, I knew Lyndan was the perfect name for a hobo chibs, so I renamed her. I then turned her male with some concoctions. Perfect! Never for trade!


Manalisia
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_fairy.gif[/img]
It took me absolutely years to get this fairy chibs. And I was overjoyed when my friend and I worked together to get her. I will forever be grateful to Nancy for the help she gave me. I have always loved fairy chibs since they were released I wanted one, but never had lots of mps back then. I think she is very pretty. I expect I will change her name in the future, but for now I???m happy with how she is. She is NOT for trade.


Matrimonial
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Figaro_valentine.gif[/img]
A VERY special pet! A representation of my marriage. She was my biggest goal and I was so proud to have finally achieved that goal. She is NEVER for trade.
You can read more about her here:
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=368539
http://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=369233


Precieux
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Viotto_gold.gif[/img]
My husband and I have 2 babies (cats). That are called Precious and Belle. We had Precious first. I saw somebody giving away this lovely golden viotto and thought that I just HAD to apply. Not only because of the ???Precious??? connection, but also because ???Precieux??? is French for ???Precious??? and I am a French teacher, so the pet was very symbolic to me. I was VERY happy to win and she is never for trade. I am considering what to re-costume her to as I feel she should be prettier. I have also considered swapping the name onto a chibs because of course a chibs would be a closer representation to my cat. NEVER for trade.


Promises
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Lati_lightfairy.gif[/img]
This pet is the perfect representation of the promises and vowes that my husband and I made to each other. I got her soon after we were married and I am very proud of her. I love her costume as a symbolism of the lightness and happiness that our vowes have brought to our lives. She is NEVER for trade. Don???t even ask.


Purdlie
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Sindi_fairy.gif[/img]
A pretty name for a pretty pet. I love all fairy pets. She is not for trade at the moment as I think she is cute. She is the best named fairy sindi that I have seen. I am very fond of her.


Rattattuie
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Basil_toddler.gif[/img]
My very first (and only) Basil. Very cute, I only really like the toddler basil and so worked very hard to get the 2 figaros I needed to trade for this pet. I am proud of Rattattuie, I like both the name and the species. Having said that, I will be renaming Rattattuie to Infancy in the near future, to be a better match to the costume Smile NOT for trade.


Romancier
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Ercuw_valentine.gif[/img]
The 3rd pet I ever made on mara. Her name used to be Latisha-Faith. I renamed her about a year ago so that I could match something to her costume. She was a plain ercuw for so long as I knew I loved ercuws, but didn???t know which one I wanted her to be. I recently changed her into a valentine as I thought it was girly, cute and pink. She is NOT for trade.


Soulmate
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Gonk_hairy.gif[/img]
She will be something very special in the future. She will be the symbolism of my husband. I have no idea what I???m going to make her yet though. For now, until I have a concrete idea, she is just going to stay as she is! NOT for trade


Willeve
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Mordo_icecream.gif[/img]
A cute ice cream mordo with a cute name. I do like the name a lot but she doesn???t hold a special representation to me in comparison to the majority of my other pets. She is for trade.


Zarya
[img] http://images.marapets.com/pets/Chibs_seasonal.gif[/img]
My tarquin pet. I love seasonal chibs, I always have. She gets a lot of offers via maramail but she is not for trade. I will be keeping this one forever Smile I may change her name one day though!
