Our Family Has Grown...

in leaps and bounds... as of September 5, my baby boy, Clayton is SEVEN years old! For his birthday this year, we wanted to introduce him to real responsibilities. Instead of piling chores on him, we decided to get him 7 fish... one for each year he's been alive. Here are our new family members...

Meet Angus:

and Whitey

and Superman

and Oscar

and Marlin

and Big Moe

and last, but certainly not least, here's Tiny

Clayton is very happy with his newfound friends and feeds them twice daily. Anette's family also bought 10 small goldfish to add to Clayton's new aquatic community. He was (to say the least) beyond excited to have 17 new friends to call his own... among them are Stripes, Nemo 1, Nemo 2, Little Whitey, Little Moe, Mustache, and Ollie. We've had two casualties thus far... and they went over like a.... well, lets just say there were a few tears shed. Poor little guy... Clayton is slowly learning that the life span of a fish is nothing like that of a dog or cat. A good lesson to learn... but hard all the same. Thanks for listening to me blab...
