Toby received a little goldfish from his Sunday school teacher a few weeks ago. He was so excited. He named him Mr. Fishy. Unfortunately it did not take long for Mr. Fishy to bite the dust. Poor Toby. This was his first experience having a pet die. So later that week, we pulled out a fish tank that a neighbor had given us (we were saving it for 'later'), and we took the boys to the pet store to pick out some new fish!
Toby was very enamored by the whole idea.
Here are the two fish the boys picked out. The orange one is Toby's; named Fishup, and the blue one is Joshua's; named Fishman. Boy, those guys have good naming skills...but I'd better shy away from letting them help name our baby.
We also picked out a couple of little froggies to go in the fish tank. Those are my favorite. Can you guess their names? Yep...Froggut and Froggy. Unfortunately Froggut had an untimely death within the week of joining us, but Froggy is doing great.

Hi Toby:) luv his goldfish!! he looks really excited:)
Ah, the life of kids and pets. It's happy, it's sad. It's great, it's kind of a pain.
That is awesome we haven't been pet people with our kids and I was just thinking maybe we should give fish a try. You may have inspired me. Maybe for Justin's 7th bday in September. We shall see. Love the names.
