Welcome ICLWers and hammies!
Miriam(My last post today, I promise! (I have other stuff to do! LOL)
I just wanted to welcome the ICLWers who stop by. You can read about ICLW here and join next month. Its fun and enlightening.
Here is my generic ICLW intro. I need to do another DITLO, though. That one is old. LOL
I also want to welcome the hammies to our house.
We went to buy fish and fish food yeasterday and came home with two hamsters that were up for adoption. (Someone dropped off a pregnant girl around Christmas so we took two of her pups.) The girls have named them Rapunzel and Flynn though they are both boys.
Right now they are rolling around the house in their balls and they live in our previously empty 10 gallon aquarium until I figure out what type they are and how big they will get. I'm hoping to move them to Zeus' travelling cage at some point.
They are now asking for a chinchilla, a cat, a gecko, a turtle and more fish. Aba isn't tooo happy about this turn of events, though. He's worried the house is going to smell like a zoo soon.

I've never been partial to hamsters or other rodents. I really liked having turtles tho.. but they can get pretty smelly. Good Luck!

Howdy from ICLW! Wow... Triplets! Do you sleep? : )
Aw how cute! I never had hamsters or had friends with them so I did not know they actually did have round balls they could circle in, lol
I always love your blog when I come by for ICLW and forget to bookmark it- won't make the mistake now! :)
Your daughters are so beautiful and I love your knit sweaters! I hope that one day you'll be able to pursue your doula dreams!
your girls are beautiful. congrats on finishing the sweaters. i have quite a few projects i need to finish, but first i need to start them. :)
I was bitten by a hamster once so I've never entirely trusted them. Years after hamster-gate I had mice, and then a friend of mine gave me a "baby mouse" that turned out to be a rat. I had great fun watching them play in their wheels and the rat was large enough not to get lost, so I used to take him outside, where he terrorized my dog. It's wonderful that you are raising your children to love animals.
