Our Pet Fish


Madeline has come to love the fish in our house. She asks to see the "ffffsh" with her hand making the sign for fish about 500 times a day. And as soon as Andrew walks in the door, she says, "ffffsh" as loud as she can so he will take her up there.

After we look at the big tank, she says, "p, p, p" and points at the little salt water tank. That is where Spot (aka "p") lives. Spot is a Domino Damsel.


When she started learning how to say and sign "fish", she would get so excited when we would respond with, "you want to go see fish?". It was as if she had been waiting so long for us to figure out what she was trying to say and we finally got it!

She is ridiculously cute - is she still going to drool on me?

So cute! She looks so much older in these pictures it seems. I am sure that she changes so much every day!

Thank you so much for all of the sweet comments on our blog/facebook. I am loving being a momma and I am learning so much about different stages of parenthood through different friends blogs - I will be sure to reference them down the road (I especially remember one on sleeping/bedtimes from your site a few months back...will be sure to look at it when the time comes...)

We are enjoying every minute of parenthood - your right, having a girl is so much fun!
