Well we added two new additions to our family this past weekend. Two hamsters that the boys both picked out at the pet shop. Austin's is tan and fuzzy and his name is Luigi after the "super mario brothers",Andre's is like a dark gray with a lil tan in him, he's a short hair. And his name is Mario after the the "super mario borther's ".

They'er so cute and fun to have. Today they helped give them fresh food and cleaned out their cages. We had them out twice today so that boys can get used to them being out and lettig them roll on thier own. This is one of thier easter presents. just gave them a lil early that's all. I don't mind hamsters cause i've had a few when i younger. so Im trying to teach them responsability. And with small pets it's much easier.
