Coming soon...out newest addition..


Every time that we go to Brynn's FAVORITE store Walmart, (she asks daily if we can go to Walmart)we have to make sure that we see:
1- The Elmo live dancing doll
2- The juice and fruit snacks
3- The bikes
4- And last but not least her favorite..the fish.
So me and Kory decided that, being the cool parents that we are,to buy Brynn two 28 cent goldfish. I know what your thinking..it really doesn't get much better than that. Any who Brynn LOVES them. She will just sit and stare and them FOREVER! She even named them..Dorthy and "The orange one"...aka..Nemo.
Any who day 3..still loving the fish, then we noticed that one had made its way right on up to the top. Yes, that is correct, it has passed away..:(
So Kory took care of the business and we still had Dorthy. Brynn would ask.."Where did the other one go?"...and "Orange one comin back?"
Well just recently Dorthy took a turn for the worst as well. These stupid fish sure are hard to keep alive! It's a good thing they run 28 cents a pop. Anyway Brynn was sitting up on the counter looking at the fish shouting..."DORFHY WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" Aw..broke my heart..also gave me a great laugh for the day! So I guess we will go back to the wonderful Walmart and look for our new additions... Dorthy the Second and The orange one Jr.

Those are hard to keep alive. I think I went through about 30 of them between age 19 to 22. Good luck. Cute story though!
That's too cute! It reminds me of Darla on Nemo..."Fishie! Wake up!" Sorry they died and sorry we couldn't hang out. I had family over, surprised right? Not if you know my family :)

That is a good idea to get fish for kids but they do die so fast which sucks. Brynn is so cute with the way she talks.

haha.. I love that she was telling the fish to wake up. She's too cute! You guys may end up breaking your bank on these little guys! :)
We used to have fish until the day that Rylie put bubble bath in the tank. Great bubbles but the fish just couldn't handle it. I quit being a cool parent when she wanted a hamster or gerbil instead. Brynn is so cute. I love your blog. LeAnn

I have yet to be a cool parent. Pets are really just hard for me! EVEN FISH! I don't want to clean the tank I don't want to look at a tank...My kids would pull in onto the floor! You get props for being cool! It's a good thing the Brynn will be happy with new ones. She isn't old enough to get "attached" to one fish, so that is super.

So when I read your title "Coming soon...our newest addition" I thought you were pregnant and going to once again bail on our running plan! Ha ha! Good luck!
How cute, I Hope you can keep the new ones alive a little longer. Hey call me when you want to go running!
