Anden managed to sneak some "pets" home.
With the help of his Dad, of course.
I was less than pleased.
All lives were threatened if those dang creepy things got out in the car!
Introducing our new adorable baby pet Horny Toads.
Mr. Anden & Mr. Taylee
You jealous?!
I'm sure it's totally what you wanted for a pet too!
The kids have mauled these things.
I'm shocked they're still alive.
Taylee's not the least bit scared
and carries them around like babies.
Talking, giggling and goo'ing at them.
Anden, well he learned the hard way
that they don't necessarily stay where you put them.
He thought they would love the sand box,
after 30 mins left attended,
turns out they didn't.
Mr. Anden had flown the coop!
A day later,
Jeremy searched every square inch of the yard
and eventually returned Mr. Anden to his rightful owner.
Kids, STOP squeezing the Toads!
Then last night Jer casually mentions,
"I guess we really should get some food for them."
Um, I think it's safe to say
that we have implemented pet population control.
Does touching toads gives you warts?
ReplyDelete"What is it about toads that make us dislike them so much? After all, they're not that different from frogs and yet they don't engender the same warm feelings that we have about frogs. After all, you don't see people snacking on a chocolate toad.
Yep, toads have had a bum-rap for centuries. Maybe it's because we think that touching those things that look like warts on toads will result in us getting warts instead.
But is this true or false?"
I guess you'll know soon enough!!
