Erza , and parenthood?

Today we buried our Little Boss..
afterward we mend the broken hole in our hearts by adopting another hamster. Brandon feels that we are ready for one. This time.. we will be better. We can always be better.


Her name is Erza, as always she will be Daddy's little girl. upon coming home Brandon built her a GRAND home connecting two cages together, this way she will have her exercise and be able to explore. we hung a couple of wooden blocks for her constant teething issue. the Pet store girl says she is about 4-5 months old.. for argument sake i'll take her as 5 months. i was surprised at her small size. when we picked up Ebichu and Boss they were much MUCH bigger, i suppose when we adopted those two they were much older than we thought ( perhaps 8 months?) anyway, she fitted right at home. we're so happy to have her. she is young, energetic and very, VERY curious. she will have to adjust to her new environment, i believe we can be really great parents =)


Speaking of parent hood. i know we're not there yet, but damn sometimes i cant help but feel like a mother/house wife sometimes. granted there aren't any crying babies, that is easily replaced with two bickering dogs,  my daily chores are composed with laundry, cook, clean and picking out shreds of food that the boys ( and the bird) leave behind. Soon cleaning out the hamster cage will be like cleaning diapers.. 

though it sound like im complaining, i am really not. the odd ball feeling of it is.. i feel so blessed and fulfilled at the end of the day.. seeing my boys lay at my feet, or when they nudge under my arms to let me know they don't want to nap alone ( or perhaps need some cuddling?) hearing the bird cooing in her cage as she slowly fall asleep at night, and see Brandon nice and full after dinner, playing modern warfare with his buddies while i relax with a cup of tea reading a magazine.  i thought to myself, it really cant get better than this.. this is what bless feels like.


speaking of parenthood, i am currently half blogging and half separating the laundry the task of it is daunting, but i am sure that  i'll feel better once we have clean clothes for the both of us. i better get these clothes in, for later is a visit to my parents place.


hey guys..Growing up.. is merely taking responsibility for all the stuff you never though you'd be responsible for.. i'd like to believe that we can grow up and have fun too.... i know i am.
