Making Memories (aka Feeding the Fish)

As of 2 weeks ago, we are the proud owners of 10 little fish. While Peter and I spent the first weekend in June in Houston, Andrew was busy setting up a brand new fish tank. Feeding the fish every night before bed has become daddy-son bonding time. Andrew puts a little food in each of Peter's hands.
Up, up, up - Andrew holds Peter up close to the tank. Peter drops all of the food into the tank. Sometimes little hands make it into the tank as well, but he's usually good about just putting the food in.



After the fish are fed, Peter runs to me and says, "Yucky - yucky hands!" I take him into the bathroom to wash the extra fish food off of this hands. Then it's back to the playroom to watch the fish eat.

Peter loves his fish, and he always tells them "bye bye fish" when we head down the stairs. It's so cute to see how much he cares about them, and it's neat to see the evening feeding tradition that has formed between daddy and son.
