So as of last night, we now have a new member of our family. The most awesomest little goldfish.... Bethany Babs!!!
"Hi guys... M on me for Moore!!"
My parents always had a cool fish tank growing up, but I myself never took care of the fish. I have been wanting a fish of my own for a while now, but just never got one. Since we are welcoming a little girl into the household soon, I figured we would even the boy-girl ratio by adding a girl fish too. I got her a cheap 1 gallon bowl, some pink rocks, and a pink glow in the dark leafy thing.
Her bowl. Isn't her design cool?
She likes to hide in the leafy thing.
The whole bowl
Probably the funniest thing about getting Bethany Babs, is Hyde. He has never seen a fish before, and has very quickly become obsessed with her. He seems to think I got her for his sake. He will sit and stare at her, then come to me and just love and rub on me, then go back to his fish. As if he is saying "Oh thank you Mom, this is the best gift ever!"
I do have her placed in a space where there is a small top over her bowl, so he can not reach in. Otherwise I move her bowl around so I can keep an eye on the two of them. And when I am not looking, Teddy is. He barks at Hyde when Hyde tries to stick his paw in. Hopefully Bethany Babs will lead a long and happy life in the Moore household. Enjoy the pictures!
Hyde sees the fish for the first time in the bowl...
"What.... what.. what are you?"
"Whoa, WHOA, WHOAAAAA... you are moving!"
Then I moved the fish bowl from that spot, and put it closer to me. So Hyde went on a search for the bowl... then jumped on the coffee table, and his eyes got wide as saucers....
"Ah HA! I have been searching for you"
Making friends? Or making dinner plans?
"I will find you"
"You are in that tree again, aren't you?"
"Best toy ever Mom"
The next morning.........
Holy cow! Bethany Babs survived the night! Yay! Now it is time for her first feeding.
Hyde must investigate her food before we begin
Just floating on top... being ignored
Food floating down. NOW she sees it
Finally chompping on her food. It's funny to see her chomp chomp chomp
"These battles have just begun...."
