New GOTY Lea and her Sloth (the best pet in the world)

Hiya.  I have a sloth.  I am pleased with this sloth.  And if you don't have one, lo siento.
I ventured out on my annual trip to AGPSeattle yesterday morning with my parents to see this new girl who is 1/8 Brazillian.  She is beautiful.  



But guys.  She isn't half so beautiful as her sloth.

Since when has AG decided to make unconventional pets?




It seems as though they have devoted all of their pet researchers to investigate dog, cat, and horse owners.  Nevermind all of the reptiles and fish and birds that just happened to be owned by people too.  Chickens as pets are a real thing, AG.  They are real. 


But back to the sloth.  Look at him.  Look upon his earnest gaze.  It's so...hopeful.



And Lea is truly stunning.  I thought I'd find her meet outfit too colorful.  And I did.  But once I desaturated it in photoshop, it looked great.


Honestly though, her combination of skin, hair, and eye color is certainly striking.


I'm also loving that she came with a bag and a necklace, as oppose to them being in her accessory set.




All in all, it was a spectacular release on AG's side of things.  I'm pretty happy with them.  What about you?  Are you going to do yourself a favor and buy Ernest the Sloth as well?  Because you should.  Really.

  1. Gorgeous photography as usual. You never fail to amaze me! Lea looks stunning, and the sloth is ADORABLE!
    What camera setting do you use for sunset pictures?
    Thanks!

    1. Thank you! I love Lea and her sloth so, so much! In all honesty, I'm not sure what setting I used. I think I had my white balance on "shade" for these photos because I wanted a warmer tone. My aperture was f/1.8, ISO 200, and shutter speed was 1/400. I change my settings each sunset, though. It just depends on the time and place!

    1. Oh, I'm sorry! She is here for a year, so maybe you'll be able to by December. Who knows--maybe AG will do another sale next holiday season like they did with Grace.

  3. beautiful, beautiful photos—at first i really wasn't fond of lea, but after seeing your photos i think i may have changed my mind. but i must say, i enjoyed seeing her sloth even more, since he really is the cutest little thing. :3 ernest the sloth will for sure be making his way home this year—pa certainly has enough trees to keep him from getting homesick. ;)

    1. You must get your own Ernest the Sloth. Seriously. Everyone should have their own Ernest the Sloth. I find it really amusing that AG would make such an unconventional animal since they don't usually take risks like that. But this little guy is one of the best things they've ever created. I love him!

    1. Hahaha, YES! I'm so, so happy you're getting your very own Ernest the Sloth. I'm thrilled with myself, for every person should have their own Ernest ;)

  6. I wish AG would hurry up and ship my Lea to me because I also got the sloth and the turtle and a whole bunch of other stuff! I am totally in love with that bag and wish I had gotten one for myself! Who cares if I am an adult. I want the bag!

    1. I thought the same thing about the bag! When I saw it in the stores, I absolutely fell in love. I didn't end up getting it, but who knows what will happen in the next year. So cute!

    2. Ohh yeah I forgot that you actually got to go to the store. Is the bag a decent size? It looks pretty big in the pictures. I am still thinking about making another order next week with that bag!
