3 New members of the family….?

So, the kids were given money for Christmas this year and could use it for whatever they would like.  Alayna had her mind set on a pet.  Now if you know anything about us whatsoever, you know we don’t do pets.  They end up dead.  Its like we don’t have a green thumb, but for pets.  I tried to talk her out of it, but she has a point- we had the pets when she was a baby so she never got a chance to have one.  So, this week we did a lot of research and a lot of shopping.

On Thursday, we got 2 fish.  She named them Cole and Paige.  They seem pretty happy, but please note we are only on day 4…

Then, she finally decided on a guinea pig.  We went to Petco and she very carefully analyzed every single pig there.  She finally decided on this black female.  When we asked to get it, the lady working there said she had a new baby in the back that Alayna might like.  As soon as she saw it, she just KNEW that was the one.  She has loved her from the minute she saw her.  She named her Rosie and I have barely seen Alayna since she spends every waking moment with her 3 new friends.  She is doing a great job taking care of them.  Its so darn cute!

I started back to work.  School is cancelled tomorrow already as record cold temps will hit with a possible low with wind chills around –40 to –50.  What the heck??
