We are officially pet people!!!

Cayden has been begging me for months to get a pet. First he wanted a dog, but they are just to high maintanance till the kids are old enough to help take care of it. So he has been watching Nemo and he decided he wanted a fish. We took him to the pet store for FHE on monday and he got to pick out 2 fish and a crab that he wanted. He loves them. He tells me everyday that he needs to take care of his fish. We told him that if he takes good care of his fish, and they stay alive that we will get him a dog for his birthday when he turns 5. So he is very concerned about taking care of them. He always wants them to come and watch a show with him, so I have to take them over to the family room. He is the one that is always reminding me that it is time to feed them. I am very proud of him. Emma really likes them too, but she keeps putting her hands in the water and trying to catch them. The two fish must have decided they didn't like the crab cause they killed him the first night. Cayden said he wasn't sad that he still needed to take care of his fishies. Cayden and his fish
