A Dog and Turtle!!


Our neighbors were going out of town and asked Morgan if she could take care of their turtle. Needless to say our girls were ecstatic...our home without animals is driving them crazy. THEN our neighbors dog sitter cancelled so, we got the dog too. She is a cute little dog and SOOO well behaved, she fit right in. Luke and her seriously played outside from sun up till sun down. Throwing balls, exploring the yard together, it was awesome.
Joslyn LOVED Shelly the Turtle. I would find her playing with her toys by the cage, just talking away to her. We had let her swim in the bath 2 times that week. The kids had so much fun. Joslyn was the only one that would dare to pick her up and take her to the bath. Here are some pictures of our sitting experience.

Rylee wanted to dry the turtle, she did good till it started "CHARGING" her and she would run and scream. 


Those of you that are screaming "GO GET YOUR KIDS SOME ANIMALS"......we will when we FINALLY own our own home and QUIT RENTING!!!! :0)

Pets are over rated. we have dogs, fish and chickens and it is hard work for mom. but fish are cheap and fun.
