When the Mommy's away. . . the Daddy must play

Last week I was able to go up to girls camp for one night before we left on our family vacation. Leave it to Logan to do something a little crazy while I'm gone. When I came home Ayden said "Mommy, come see Cookie". I thought, what the heck it that? And then I learned. Cookie is our new pet. . . a TURTLE!! While I was gone Logan took Ayden to the pet store and bought a swimming turtle, aquarium and all. What a funny guy! The good thing is that Ayden really loves the turtle. He love to stand on his "stooly" and watch him swim. And I think Cookie likes it too because every time Ayden's there he always goes right up to the glass. They are a cute pair. So although I don't really care for the turtle all that much, it is a fun addition to the family and has been a great bonding experience for my boys.

That is awesome! I never thought I would be jealous of a three-year-old… I have always wanted a turtle.

When you said he had a turtle I was thinking it was one of those little turtles like we bought for our boys, but no, Logan went all out. Cookie is a big turtle and has a great home to live in. I am happy that Ayden likes his new friend. Ayden looks very proud and happy with his new acquisition. Which room do you keep cookie in?
