big frank

Levi has been wanting a pet for about six months now. I'm just not a pet Mom right now! I have my hands full with the kids and have no desire to take care of a pet, too. Don't get me wrong...I love dogs, just don't want one.

Several weeks ago, Levi began asking Eric if we could get a snake. WHAT THE ???? A snake? Um, no. He keeps begging and promises to keep it in a box in his room and not let it out. Um, still no.

After church yesterday, Eric and I talked about it and finally decided it was okay for him to get a snake. Levi named him Big Frank and here is the box Levi & his Daddy made for him...

Levi got Big Frank from the gum ball machine at El Nopal. Each week Papa gives the kids two quarters and this is what he wanted to buy. ;)
He has been talking to Big Frank all day. Checking on him, making sure he hasn't gotten out, and remembering to feed him his "pretend Big Frank" food. I love his imagination!!
Oh, and just for laughs, here's a pic of our little guy in his pj's, playing his DS, of course with his safety glasses on!!???? Oh my.

Isn't Big Frank the name of the horse from the carriage rides? He is too funny!

That is awesome! We had a real snake when I was little named Fred. He was lime green. It was quite an adventure!
