Our new pet

Maddy brought home a new pet for us yesterday. She named her Crystal. Which is funny because that is my brother in law's ex girlfriends name. :-) Hee Hee. Anyways, just thought I would share it with everyone else..

Yes, she brought us home a dead baby octopus. They are learning about sea animals in school and they got to bring these home so that they could teach us about them as well. How nice huh! Anyways, Maddy is a little bit confused about the whole "dead" thing. She has told us that octopuses have 8 legs (tenticles) with sucky things on them, (suckers), and that they live in very cold salt water. So when the girls were taking a bath last night Maddy asked me if I could fill the bath tub up with extra cold water when they were done, add salt to it so that she could put Crystal in it so she could swin again. I thought it was cute. Anyways, Crystal has been moved to the outside freezer for a couple of days so that Maddy can show her off when she wants, but she will soon be moved to her brand new home at the landfill. What a great place for Crystal, don't ya think? (Crystal the dead baby octopus, not the bro's ex..)

She's a little scary looking - the octopus, not Maddy!
