uh oh!

Well, I think Adrian has heard the story enough times he decided to try it just like Daddy!

Tanks

I have finally gotten some good pictures of the two tanks so... here's how the new one started


and now here's the tank. With out the bug.
















And then the 'old' tank

Well I may not have convinced her to get a 150 gallon, but I did convince her to get a fish tank for our bedroom. It's a 26 gallon curved front. I haven't taken any pictures of it yet so I will take some and post them tomorrow. We have to wait about a week to get fish for it. We have to wait for it to 'cycle' (build up bacteria). I'm very excited.

This is my fish tank in progress. We have 5 gold barbs, 2 tiger barbs, 2 albino barbs, 2 gold fish, 2 bala sharks, 1 red finned shark, 1 dwarf gourami, 2 sucker fish and 1 guppy. I've gotten Jen really into it now. I'm really excited. I'm trying to convince her to get a 150 gallon tank. I don't know how well I'm doing on that endeavor. We are planning on getting a small tank for our bedroom and we are going to put some aggressive fish in that one, since we cannot put them in our big tank.

I absolutely love seeing Adrian really enjoy something. We went to the aquarium today and he loved it more than anything before. He was laughing and screaming and blowing farts (from his mouth) the whole time. I had so much fun watching him. I really understand why people say that they love seeing they're child do something they like. I was so joyed to see him. Adrian really likes our fish tank at home and I am trying to make it a really nice tank so he can enjoy fish all the time. I also really enjoy watching fish. They are so beautiful. I want to take him to the aquarium more. I want to really 'get into' something with him as he grows up. Fish are easy and reasonably affordable, so I think that may be it.

I love my son, and I love being a dad. Today really made me realize how much I love being a dad, and what it's all really about.

He is much like his daddy! He doesn't want to be anywhere but the drivers seat!
