New Pets

The little boys have really wanted a pet since they were just tiny! We started with fish and have now moved our way up to birds! We bought two parakeets, one female and one male! Carter was so excited and with the help from his daddy and little brother Taylor named them Shark Boy and Lava Girl! I could have screamed when they picked those names, but Rhett reminded me that they are their pets NOT MINE!

Rhett had a bird in his house growing up so he actually really likes the birds! He is getting them used to our family by putting his finger in and letting them jump on it! They really are seeming to like Rhett! As for the rest of us.... it will still take a while! The babies LOVE the birds, but try to stick their fingers in to touch them and it just scares the crap out of the them! Carter and Taylor are content to just sit and stare at them. We love in the mornings because Shark Boy always sings beautiful little songs to Lava Girl!

We really aren't the greatest pet people, but we will see how they work out! If not, I guess we will take them to petco to get adopted! :)

This is Shark Boy!
