Ok, my hubby loves me a ton. The other day was my birthday. I wasn't feeling well, but I had a midwife appointment in the morning. Knowing the appointment would be short, we loaded up the kids and headed there (we can't take the kids inside, however, because they use latex gloves in the office. So my hubby waited out in the car with them.). After the appointment (where everything looked and sounded great with baby), we ran to the pet store to get crickets for Itchy (our pet tarantula) and food for our fish.
We LOVE the pet store we went to. It's owned by a super-nice guy who truly knows and takes good care of his animals. While there, we picked out a couple of gorgeous orange shrimp and a sweet little boy pleco for our tank.
Doesn't he look like a sweet little old man? =) We named him Plucky.
Then, my hubby gave me a wonderful surprise. He told me I could pick out a snake for my birthday!! As some of you know, I've been really wanting a sand boa, as I discussed in a recent post. I went ahead and held a couple of different rosy boas, too, but the sand boa still had my heart. So he came home with me!!
On the way home, my hubby chuckled and said, "Most women would want a pretty dress for their birthday. But I got my wife a snake." What a great man!
I named him Malcolm, but I just call him Mal. He's sooooo cute and sweet and still so little!
So we now have a couple more very loved members of our family. Thank you to my sweet hubby for such a wonderful birthday surprise!!
Oh, and we also have a gift card from my sister-in-law to Hobby Lobby for two of my girls. I can't wait to see what fun crafty stuff we all decide to get! Have any of you seen anything recently that's simply a gotta-have?
Happy Birthday! Glad baby looks good! Ick, Im sure your snake is very nice but Im glad he's at your house and not mine! =)
