And Now . . . A Family of Four

Nope, not another baby, another fish!! Dave and I were talking earlier this week and decided that it might be time to get Savannah a fish. Well it just happens that after our date night at church on Friday they were giving away goldfish so we brought one home for Savannah. She decided on the way home that the fish would be called Dorothy (after Elmo's fish). Savannah fell in love with her new fish and asked to see it first thing this morning after waking up. We knew that we had to go get some fish food so we journeyed to the new Pet Smart this morning to buy Dorothy some food.


After talking to several employees about goldfish we decided that Dorothy would be much happier in our big neighborhood pond where she could grow to be quite large. We then went with our original plan to get another beta. This afternoon Dave and Savannah ventured to the pond to release Dorothy to be with her friends. I'm sure they'll be back often to check on her!

So, here is our new beta fish also named Dorothy. After getting used to calling the goldfish Dorothy, Savannah refuses to call this poor male beta fish anything else . . . so welcome home Dorothy, #2!!
