To Frog or Not to Frog

Any one that knows Ben and I knows that we have a soft spot in our hearts for little animals and creatures (as long as they are not venomous or require a stable --- at least at this point in our lives).
Ben's brother Jordan recently left to the MTC - and has gifted us his frogs. We agreed to foster the frogs until sunday when we can hand them off to an unsuspecting extended family member. Jordan hadn't fed them in a week - and they were just in a glass box with rocks and water. Talk about quality of life. So Ben and I got them a bag of crickets (**shivers**) and a plastic log to bounce around on.

They are korean fire belly toads. It is becoming increasingly difficult not to become attached to these little dudes. There are several "CONS" to this decision including crickets (**shivers**) and my house is inches away from becoming a petting zoo.

For christmas Ben got me this cute goldie - his name is Chibbols. He's my favorite so far. Never complains, knocks over the garbage can, takes up my sleeping space, and doesn't even stink. Just makes bubble noises when he's hungry.


This one just got a hair cut and RULES THE WORLD. :) but is the most darling.
This thing needs no explanation.

.... oh yeah.... and Ben :) He is not classified in my 'zoo' but certainly needs to be cared for fed and cleaned up after :) jk .... sorta.

.... all in my one bed room apartment. Sigh....

That last bit about Ben made Dick laugh really hard. Your fish is cute.

Is that a light saber in that last picture?
