Whenever we go out to the pet store so Mason can look at the animals, we debate on getting him a pet. Something simple, not too expensive, easy to take care of, in a cage, and easy to replace just in case it dies, in other words, A FISH! So last weekend we finally decided to go ahead and do it, we bought some fish. Our first family pet! We were just going to get a simple bowl and a couple of cheap goldfish, but as we looked around our minds slowly changed. With all the cost of the heater, gravel, thermometer, and filter, we decided to go with a starter kit. Then the we got some cute little guppies instead of goldfish. With the food and water treatments (and of course David had to get little sunken pirate ship) it turned out to be not so cheap. But Mason was so excited that it made it all worth it.

Mason and his Fishies!

We put the tank on his dresser so it was high enough that he couldn't get into it all the time.

Feeding the fish

Oh! I want to hold the Fishies!
We went and got Mason another fish and a frog for his tank because he had been so good with the fish, and they have made it longer than we thought!

He picked this guppy out...

The frog is lazy and hides behind the ship all day!
