The three older kiddos each got a new fish last month with their own money. Allie was sad to learn that she might not be quite old enough yet to care for a fish on her own. But, she didn't let that get her down for too long. When I came in to her room to wake her up from Nap, I found this on her dresser....


Meet "Floating Banana", Allie's Pet Fish.
Meet "Floating Banana", Allie's Pet Fish.
She found him in our stash of bath toys, and has named him with the help of her Aunt Patti.
When I found this I laughed so hard, I NEARLY peed my pants.
Way to find a loop-hole Allie-Bug!

Howdy Amie,
Glad you stopped by the blog. I have to read yours from the start sometime. It must be a good read 'cause my friend Monica's here too I see. ;) Always glad to get to a blog where the writer has a good sense of humor!
We're not DTC quite yet, we thought we'd be, but had to re-do three documents. We just sent them back this week so should be DTC next week (prayerfully). I end our Skype Calls with Little Miss by telling her we'll be there to bring her home just as soon as they let us.
Take Care

Sorry I lead you down the path of thinking we were moving.... as I have noticed you now know why I have been on a hug contraband for 2 weeks....ask me how much it hurts?? It's like cosmo and wanda on farily odd parents...when they don't use their magic they explode from magic build up..... I may explode from hug build up... :( ... also did you notice it was dave who thinks your baby needs a real pet fish.. he laughed for a solid 10 minutes when he read the post. love you - shelley
That little girl has an uncanny ability to think WAY outside of the box!!! :)
