First Fishies!

The girls have been asking for a dog, so we took them to the pet store… and got them some fish! Our house is limited to the size of dog we can get and if I am being honest, after losing Jack I am not sure I am ready for another canine companion just yet.
Instead we thought fish would be a great pet for the girls to have. Teaching them responsibility; making sure to feed and care for them. Its also a great way to teach them about loss, as we all know most guppies have a pretty short life span. Hmmm… maybe a puppy is a better choice. I guess only time will tell.
So after a trip to PetSmart we came home with a tank, all the needed accessories, some fun decorations and 4 fish picked out by our adorable little kiddos. Ah new fishy parents! Lets hope all of our new fishies adapt and survive. No matter what, it was a fun day sharing this moment with the girls.
Trying to decide which ones to take home. If the girls had it their way, they would take them all.
Our new tank with our 4 new fish. Each has a name but I have not committed them to memory yet. Just. In. Case.
