Our newiest addition

Owen has been working towards being able to get a fish. Tonight for Family night we headed down to Walmart to get his new friend. The boys were so excited you would have thought they were getting a dog, I take that back if they were getting a dog they would have been running for the door crying because they are scared to death of dogs. Anyways they each picked out the best goldfish they could find. We got a little fish bowl and some decorations and headed home. I asked Owen what we were going to name the fish he said "The nemo looking one will be Daniel Cameron" random I know so I asked why and he said he was naming if after his friend Daniel at school and his other friend Caden Cameron's last name, which I thought was pretty funny, then he said that he was going to name the 2nd one "Kayden Cameron", Kayden after his cousin and Cameron because "the 2 fish are now a family and live in the same house so they have to have the same last name". Welcome to the family Daniel and Kayden Cameron hopefully you last longer then the other animals we have had but don't hold your breath on it. Thankfully they are cheap little goldfish.

How fun! And it is absolutely hilarious that your goldfish have last names! My fingers are crossed that they last a while...goldfish don't do so well in our house. Maybe you'll have the magic touch. :)

Good luck with the fish! The nice thing about fish is they are easily replaced if they die,as long as you can find one that looks the same. It would not be so easy for us if Lexi or Chole died. Love the names, I wonder how long it took him to think that up:)

fish don't have to hold their breath, so maybe they'll survive!
