meet mr. fishy

putting fishy in its new home

look at mr. fishy

this only lasted two days

So i decided maybe it'd be nice to get the girls a fish. we went to our local super walmart, julianna picked out her fish. first the sales lady had to convince that the big fishes were for ponds. she wanted to hold the bag the whole time we were shopping including the ride home. in my head i was reliving the part of nemo were the little girl shakes the bag uncontrollably... yeah. thank god it did not happen. we got home she helped put fishy in his new home. and then i asked her what should we call the fish... she said fishy mami, and looked at with a "drrr what else would we call him" kinda look. So this is mr. fishy. the first two days she would go to see him and if he was too still for her amusement she would demand he swim "Swim fishy swim" in the oh so sweet but demanding tone of voice she has picked up. and knocks on the bowl and the little fish begins to swim. now a few weeks later, she no longer pays that much attention to it and now i am stuck cleaning and feeding the fish.
