Still sick, but Positive!
After Lily's doctor appt today I took the kids over to Petsmart. We haven't been out in days, so I thought it would be a fun little field trip. Lily is crazy about the birds. She just loves them and is so happy to see them. She walks over to them and signs bird and says, "Mama, mama, mama!" in the sweetest little voice it makes me want to buy all of the birds for her. But I take issue with caging birds- it just seems wrong that they can't fly around. Isaiah loves the fish! So I couldn't help myself. We've just been so sick and icky I thought I would buy us some fish to cheer us up. We haven't had Betta fish for years (our last each lived for 3 years). Of course Isaiah wanted a yellow one, but they don't have yellow betta fish, so he chose a nice orange one instead. Lily even got to choose one. Well, I put two in front of her and let her point to the one she wanted. Isaiah named his fish "Splishy-Wishy" and we call Lily's fish "Squishy". So Splishy Wishy and Squishy Fishies are the newest additions to our family. As we were driving home Isaiah asks me what the word "Positive" means (because he heard it on the radio- as in "positive attitude"). I told him it meant happy or good. When we got home with the fish he said, "I think they are going to be so positive here in their new home!".
Squishy on left is Lily's fishy. Splishy on the right is Isaiah's.
Do you still have your turtles?

No, the turtles were set free into the wilderness (a pond at a nursery) before Lily was born. They had risk of Salmonella and we didn’t want them in the house since Lily was a preemie. Gosh that seems like so long ago but it was less than a year and a half ago. I'm sure hermit crabs, hamsters and such are also in our near future!
