New Family Members!

After watching Alyssa totally wig out watching the Wiggles this morning when they showed a gold fish (and then continue to say "Fish, Fish, Fish" while pointing at the TV throughout the day), I decided to take her to the pet store and see what she thought of fish in "real" life. She LOVED it, so we came home as the proud new owners of two goldfish. Currently we're leaning towards naming them Macaroni and Cheese. All afternoon/evening Alyssa has been completely enthralled with them. And heck, when they die, I bet she'll be the first to volunteer to flush them . . . she loves flushing stuff. I just hope that life with a toddler isn't to traumatizing for them. Already she'll pull her step stool over to the bookshelf and climb up to look at them. I'm waiting for the day that she decides to try to pull the tank off the shelf . . . yikes!

Live long and prosper fish! Aka FEESH!FEESH! in Toddler-ease.

I've been thinking about getting some fish too, but then, it's just one more thing to take care of!
