The big news at the Mason house is our new pet turtles. Yes...turtles. Eden LOVES looking at the water turtles every time we go to the pet store. A couple of weeks ago, Gene got word that a friend had 2 water turtles he was giving away. We talked about it, researched it, and decided to take them. Needless to say, once I got the "habitat" for them including aquarium, filter, UVB light, basking lamp, cleaning supplies, turtle dock, etc., my "free" turtles were not so free. But they are SO fun to watch.
Here's the funny part. When my friend came over to bring them to us, we had a 30-minute conversation about what they like to eat, how much they poop, how to clean up after them, etc. Well, as Sam was leaving he asked Eden what she wanted to name them. She proudly answered, "Eat" for the little one and "Poop" for the big one. How appropriate! So our turtles are named Eat and Poop. Ahhh, the simplicity of the 2-year-old mind.
Hope you all have a great Easter! We are going to attempt to dye eggs today. I'll post photos of how we do. I promise to update more often!! Below are pics of Eden and her turtles. Enjoy!
