thinkin' about it thursday.

meet our fishies.

 

goldie

henry

buzz lightyear

estella girlfriend

chomper

butch

waldo

the way we tell the twins apart is by a tiny little black spot by chomper's eye.  chomper started out as chopper, but cy couldn't say chopper as well, so over a couple days it changed.  

buzz is our fattie.  henry is pretty aggressive.  it looks like he rams other fish, like he's picking on them, but cy loves it, cy says he's playing tag with them.  hah.  stella is my girl fish {i needed one, ya know.}  we have a neighbor dog that's named 'girlfriend' so cy insisted {demanded} we name a fish girlfriend.  

and, finally, our algae eater:  waldo.  cousin maddax was with us when we got waldo and we threw around some fun names........but waldo hides........he moves around a lot and hides.  so, i had to name him waldo.  {lane can't really say 'waldo' it's more like 'lago'} the kids constantly say "where's waldo?" {trying to find him} it makes me laugh every time.  cy still doesn't get it, maybe some day.

as you can see, we love them.  the kids check on them all day long.  they love feeding them and talking to them.  but, what is surprising to me is how much i love them.  love.  we are attached.
