Meet the newest member of our family...

Master Shifu
(or just Shifu for short)

He's our first family pet and Carson couldn't be more excited about him! When we told him that we were going to the store to get a fish he said, "Oh yay! Mmmm, delicious! He will be yummy!" Not quite, Carson. And then when we were at the pet store he said, "I'm so excited! I can't wait to take him home and snuggle with him. Can he sleep with me in my bed?!"
He spent the rest of the day staring at that little fish and then we had to read P.D. Eastman's "A Fish Out of Water" about 20 times and the next morning when he fed Shifu he said, "Just so much, no more than a spot. Or something may happen, you never know what."

Carson Quote of the Day (you might want to skip this one...)

We're trying to get Carson to go to the bathroom when he feels the urge instead of dancing around for an hour. So today this is what he said- Mom, I need to go poop but first I need to pee. Will that make my body not mad anymore?

Just FYI- Ryan is now playing from 2-4 at the Eastside Marketplace. See you there!
