Yesterday the kids, Boo Boo, and I went on an adventure. We visited the pet store!! Kevin and I decided to buy the kids a few fish, so they would finally have a pet and can learn the responsibilities that go along with them. They had so much running through the store. They saw cats, farrets, gerbils and hamsters, cats, and lots of fish. I was surprised that they didn't ask for any of the other animals. No way was I bringing home a stinky gerbil!! The lady that helped us was super nice and helpful. She put the tank together for us and gave us a crash course in everything we would need to do for them.
The kids picked out three fish and really do love them. Boo Boo brought the tank home for us and finished setting it up for us. The kids are able to feed them and watched them a lot yesterday. Megs and Mimi came over yesterday to meet our new friends and the kids were excited to show them off! They also loved showing their daddy when he came home.
First thing this morning they both wanted to check on them, and I was so glad they were all still alive!!! I have hidden the food, so that little fingers aren't able to overfeed and kill them:) So we will see how long our little fishies survive! They have already brought this family lots of smiles and I am so glad the kids can finally say they have a pet:)
