Pet Emergency

Today was the day I felt we had to go get Malter and Nudder a new home. We skipped Stompers class this morning and, instead, headed out to the pet store. We already had a a 10 gallon tank - too small for two goldfish, but all we've got.

We washed out the tank with the lawn hose this morning. At the pet store we got a filter, more gravel, water conditioning solution and...a castle! (Just like Goldie now!)

It was a rough trip home for Mommy, what with 10 lbs of gravel in tow, but it was Alex who got to nap when we got home. A good thing too. Mommy set up Malter and Nudder's new home while he slept. Now, all we have to do is introduce more of this water to Malter and Nudder over the next few days. Let's hope they make it to next week.
