Dr. Doolittle's House

Hey all! Yes, I am finally updating my blog. Shocking I know. We have the same stupid computer and camera that won't upload pics! I am really trying not to keep up with the "Jones" but I think we need to break down and get these NECESSARY items! (if you see my husband tell him this is necessary....) Yesterday we were privileged to attend Dawn's wedding. It was beautiful! She was stunning! On the way home we stopped in Bluffdale and picked up a rabbitat. Yes this is what the lady called it. I just thought it was a rabbit hutch. So our rabbits Snowy, and Run Run (thats Cole's genius) have a new, more spacious home! We love ksl classifieds! Well now we're in the market for a terrarium, or a home for a toad. Cole informed us a couple of days ago he needed $2 to buy a toad from the neighbor boy. What the heck, we thought, so we gave it to him. He came back a few minutes later with no toad! He explained that the purveyor of the toad had to attend a birthday party and would complete the transaction at a later time. Well, I thought, my son has just been schwindled! A necessary lesson in life, especially for a 5 year old. So I tried to explain that there was probably no toad to be sold and that he would most likely never see his $2 again. He became adamant that there was a toad to be sold, so we just left it at that. Next day, he says, I am going to collect my toad! Imagine my surprise when he comes home with a fabulous new toad! So after one escape attempt by Mr. Toad we are looking for a more suitable home for him. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! So toad joins the Marrott family which consists of 2 cats, 2 rabbits, one recently released Horny Toad ( he was endangered!!! and a little guilt goes a long way...) and a very common not endangered toad. I will post a pic later!
