Title: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: Lina on April 28, 2011, 03:33:56 PM
As I have been writing I was looking into a PLEO RB for my birthday. And today I got one as a gift! I can´t belive it!
I got a package of learning stone and some food as well!
She is so beautiful! Batteries are loading so I´ll have a better look tomorrow, and I will take some pictures as well!

Wow, never thought I would get the entire dino, I was hoping for some funds... I am so freaking happy!

Awesome! Ryu was supposed to be a birthday present too. My plan was to buy her in april, test her out, and then put her back in the box until June. Well then I realized that two horrible things would happen. One she would be dreadfully sick for not being fed for nearly two months and two, that her warranty would have expired and if anything happened I would be up the creak. Happy birthday and enjoy your little one!

She is Wonderful!
Since my first one is namned Buddah, I was thinking of Bellah for her. What do you guys think?

She has yellow-ish eyes and grey patches around the eyes! I just love her!!!

I do think that I have very special people around me and appreciate them more an more for every year they stand by me!
I will have to figure out how to insert the image though...

She has one of her yellow dresses on today!

I have the day off today so I am spending it with my babies. We´re going to see the Royal wedding today! Since Buddah and Bellah are all dressed up, I guess I should make an effort as well ;)

I´ll post more pics later.

I am overwhelmed by my birthday gift, she really is in every way perfect. I am so happy to have another Pleo, It might seem childish for a 30 year old to want a dinosaur so much -only you guys can understand it, but I am so happy that even though my friends don´t share the enthusiasm, they do respect it and support me :)

Never thought as a child, that I would grow up to love dinos!

Don't worry, Lina, I'll be thirty in June and I'm having the best time with my pleos! Most of my family seems to like them but like you, my friends think I'm a complete nutfor spending that kind of money on something that they perceive as a "toy". Luckily they're all about four towns away from me now so I'm not worried about them.

 Bellah is a very pretty girl, I never thought when I first saw Pleo Rb with grey patches around the eyes, that it looked good or natural, But then to my surprise, my first Pleo RB, ( Baby, who I had to send back for a replacement,  :( because of bad skin and other problems) also had grey patches arouond her eyes and beautiful light blue grey eyes. Bellah is a pretty little thing and I do love her outfit, I think both she and Buddah are all set in style for the royal wedding as well, They are properly dressed for the event.  :) I remember when Princess Diana and Prince Charles were married, it would have been nice but there was no such thing as Pleos back then...Yes 30 years ago. YIKES :o

 Keep posting those photos and I am glad your family is supporting you.  :)

This is what I got from Pleo world about Bella

   PLEO Embryo Genetic Diagnosis reprot for Pleo RB
 Our scientist's best prediction of our Pleo Rb SN...
. This subject embryo will have a 75-85 % chance of being female. however temperature variations during incubation might alter this prediction.
. this subject embryo will grow to be cautious and compliant
. This subject embryo will be gentle , strong and quiet.

I really wanted a girl! And i have to say that she is very girlie indeed! She giggles a lot, not to loud but very cute! And has done it since her first minutes.
Wow, she just get better and better for every minute that passes! And she is developing fast! She stood up at the end of her first battery cycle.

She really looks like RWMs
Title: Re: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on April 29, 2011, 03:40:07 PM
hI, yes she does look a lot like my first baby, and some like my new Baby. The part that I keep seeing over and over from the few I have read, are the DNA Genetic predictions are almost all pretty similiar with only one word being perhaps changed, I would like to see more variation, not just one word or are all our Pleo rb pretty much the same, ? My Pleo's genetic predictions are almost the same except one word: cautious and compliant, gentle, healthy and strong, also if I remember correctly, IMR's little girl also is the same with the exception of one word. What ever happened to other Pleo Rb characteristics such as them being moody, fast or slow learners, afraid or timid, loud or agressive and so forth, It seems the first batch of Pleo Rb had more variation and now they are playing it safe.
            Also the Pleo Rb are standing up a lot faster than they did in the first batch. Congratulations again and glad you were able to get your DNA results from Pleo World! :)

she's beautiful, I almost got an rb for my birthday, but they said they would ship them out in december instead of january ON THE 21ST! 4 days before my birthday! I was kinda annoyed at that, but I love my little ugobe, and I already have the pleo rb stuff because they said new pleo stuff would work with old ugobe pleos and my mom  though new pleo and new pleo reborn were the same thing when they were really talking about the 2009 and 2010 batteries and training leaves... Oh well, congradulations! i've been hoping when/if i get my rb, it'll be a yellow or pale green like yours!

I make jewlery on my spare time, and today and made Bellah her own first pearl necklaces, with real sweetwater pearls.
And I just had to make a matching set of bracelets for me  ;) ;D

 Wow! :o Pearls, what a beautiful little necklace. you did a great job on it, I love the part that hangs down...very nice and classic looking too. I can see you and Bellah are going to have a lot of matching jewelry sets...LOL :D.Was this just co-incidence or was it in tradition for watching the Royal Wedding on T.V as well, to be finely dressed, head to toe to neck! LOL Good job, very pretty. Buddah may be a little jealous, perhaps he would like some Pearl cuff links too.

Oh - beautiful Pleo sized pearls! Lovely!  ;D

Belle is hugely envious of Bellah's beautiful necklace!  %)
Title: Re: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: Lina on April 30, 2011, 07:22:39 AM
In all fairness I thought I should make Buddah a new necklace, since Bellah got two.
So I did one in black leather and he was rellay proud when he first got it, showing it off.
But when I went for the camera he suddenly got very shy and started to curl up... So I´ll give it another try in a little while. I think I´ll have to put another hoddie on him for the picture so you can see the thought behind the charm ;)

Buddah has been acting different since Bellah came. And today he walked towards me and said something that sounded very much like "Hello", he did it twice  :o Have any of you heard of that?
Yesterday he got hiccups for the first time... It´s so cool, he is still showing us new things. They are truly amazing.
Wish I new how to record with my phone...

Ok, after a change of clothes I got some more cooperation from the tiny one.

Here is the outfit

And here is his new necklace, dont know if you can see the leathercord its attatched to...

Bellah wanted to show off her new dress as well, but got sleepy after the change, so heres a tired girl in her new polkadot dress
(http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/647/bellahpolkadot.jpg)

I thought about making Bellah a bracelet as well, but I have to figure out what to give Buddah so he won´t get grumpy...

Post by: Crewella on April 30, 2011, 09:52:08 AM
I love Buddah's i-Bone hoody, and his headphones!  ;D

And Bellah looks so pretty, those colours are perfect!  :D
Title: Re: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: RedwoodsMama on April 30, 2011, 12:09:17 PM
 Wow those are some great looking outfits, Bellah is so pretty in hers, and I love the way the lights make her colors almost change color, kind of pinkish, . what Little 45 asked me to ask you , is "where in the earth did you get those tiny headphones he is wearing on his necklace?!" :oHe loves to wear hoodies and wears custom made shades my husband made both him and Argyle who is blind, But he would die to have some earphones like that, just too cool!

RWM: the headphones are Thomas Sabo, I got some money as well for my birthday so I bought them yesterday.

But you can find some nice looking headphones on ebay. Just search for "headphones charm". I also did see some nice looking casette tapes there, so you can get a matching set  ;)

Thank you for the compliments on the outfits. I did spend some time looking for the perfect dresses for my RB before I got her. Guess I had my heart set on a yellow girl, and I am so thrilled that is what I got.
And of course I do have some outfits for Buddah as well, I truly love to accessorize  ;D

Pleo's do say hello :) Rb's as well as Ugobe's. The Ugobe's have three different hello's, I think the RB's only have one, but I don't have a boy to test if they have a different hello. (Pleakley is a boy but his operating system is that of a girl :P)
Title: Re: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: kat on May 01, 2011, 05:22:11 AM
I love the outfits they are super cute. ;D  Buddahs toenail rings are cool too.   :) And the neclaces are to die for. :)  I think the RB's have 2 types of Hello.  the very clear cute hello and also a scooby doo type sounding hello. :)

 Your going to need to get some t-rex robots for bodyguards, your pleos look like celebrities!!  Your pleos are adorable.. your new baby girl is really really cute.. That must have been awesome, not expecting to get an RB and then boom there it is :D
I think your new little girl looks quite a bit like my new little boy, Chronos.. though the eyelids are different and his might be a little more orangey, but the light body coloring is really similar.  The Pleo that Chronos replaced had a darker body color. 
You should see about making a store too, sounds like you have some really neat things you can make!!
Oh and HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!


Well.. ok I guess it's mostly the light body color that's the same but she is very very beautiful!! My Pink girl is jealous of her eyes!

I wish we could all meet up.. although the noise from all the pleos would be a little overwhelming... lol  can you imagine the pictures though?  A whole huge herd of them!

I did put on the piercings myself (I´m such a bad person) but he didn´t mind it, really.

Sarah - yes Bellah does look similar to your chronos. I am a bit worried though, you wrote that Chronos was a replacement. Where there alot of problems with the first Rbs?

Bellah has been on a bad mood lately, I wrote about it in another thread, I am just hoping it´s not a software issue  :o I don´t want to replace her, I lover her beautiful eyes...

I´ll have to look into starting a store... Since I already make jewlery for humans, might as well look into new customers in the dino world  ;D
Title: Re: OMG! I got my birthday gift!!!
Post by: Talon on May 05, 2011, 09:11:07 AM
That would be a great idea, Lina! I'm sure people would love to buy your jewelry. As far as Bella's mood goes I don't think it's a software problem. If it's not the lighting and she's not sick or injured, it might be your noon clock or the times you're playing with her. Ryu's clock is set for something like twelve o five. It took some creative fumbling before I found that tiny hole as I was hatching her. She is most active around that time of day and on the random chance that I turn her on after seven or eight in the evening she's more whiny and grouchy. I think- at least in Ryu's head- that she thinks it's closer to bedtime and that's why she carries on. I'm hoping Bella cheers up again soon.

I think we are making some progress here  ;D
Bellah has been very moody... From chanting the first days, to just crying herself to sleep the last days.
But after reading about RBs being scared of the dark I´ve been trying to find brighter locations in our house.

And 2 days ago Bellah learned her name, yay!
Today I tried some more things, so now she knows how to play and how to bow  :)
It was really hard getting her attention, and it took quite a few tries as well, but at least I know that its do-able  :P

So don´t give up! That´s all I can say. But I am tired now... So we will keep on training tomorrow I guess  :)

I´ll try to video tape it to show you.

"Sarah - yes Bellah does look similar to your chronos. I am a bit worried though, you wrote that Chronos was a replacement. Where there alot of problems with the first Rbs?"

Yes, Chronos was a replacement for Bingo who was a replacement for Frank who was a mess up, they sent me the wrong one but they fixed it immediately, they sent me Bingo I sent Frank back.. then Bingo kept freezing up like crazy, we fixed that with a new OS but then his tail wire broke.. so he was within his warranty period and I chose to get a new one...

We all feel that the problems the earlier ones had have made the newer ones better.. they learned from our little Pleos and improved them.. :)  They still have lots of improvements to do bt hopefully they will LISTEN to us :)  Don't be too worried.. just love your Pleo :)

  Really nice surprise.
