No, we didn't get a new dog. Or a cat or a fish or a guinea pig either, for that matter. Well, then, what could it be??...

DUCK!
Yes, Andrew showed up with a duckling tonight after work and the kids were thrilled. Our friends were getting some and asked if Andrew wanted one, too, so he decided to go for it. I guess we are truly farm people now that we own fowl - lol!
He was named Isaac by Ben and Nate agreed (there's a surprise, right? Nate the Mellow and Easygoing :)). Isaac is fuzzy and cute and is a little lonely so he has been crying a bit. I guess we should have gotten two of them so he would have had company :). We'll watch him grow for a few weeks and then release him into the wild when he's big enough. For now, the kids are having fun with him!

Oh, how cute! I had told Andrew that they usually chirp around when they are alone, so if it gets to be too much, feel free to come and claim another! :)
