Our New Addition 2

Well we decided on a name for our "New Addition" We are calling him Tuck, cause he tucks up in his shell. Pretty clever for a 5 year old.

Well, did we have an adventure today. I had "Tuck" in his aquarium in Mason and Conner's room on top of Conners Dresser so he really couldnt get messed with. Well Chris says to put him on the lower shelf, because Conner wanted to see the turtle.

So, I put the aquarium on the small shelf, and the boys seemed to be enjoying it. So,we all ate breakfast, and as i was cleaning the dishes,Conner went in the room, and tumped over the aquarium. Needless to say water,rocks,and "Tuck" was scattered everywhere. So i put Conner in his bed, and pick up the Aquarium, and rocks and Tuck and put them gently back into the Aquarium.

Then,Mason is asking where's the minnow? AGGGGHHH! I was franctically looking to save the minnow, even though I thought the turtle would of ate it by now!!
So, i was slowly digging through the rock, for the little fella, but Im sorry to say,the minnow died, cause when Conner tuped the Aquarium, he got crushed by the rocks.
I explained what happened to Mason, and we said a little prayer for the Minnow.
Tuck was alright. So we are keeping him high up, and only bring Tuck down when Conner can be supervised.....so long for now......Kari
