Guinea Pigs

When we were getting ready to rent our house, our landlords (also our friends) asked us if we wanted to purchase their guinea pigs so they didn't have to move them. It was funny, because Allyson had asked for guinea pigs for her birthday just one week before! A happy coincidence! So we got Andrew and Bradly with our cute rental home. Ally changed Bradly's name to Pepper.

So I present to you Pepper and Andrew MacArthur:They'd eat all day long if we'd let them. They squeak at night, and they smell if we don't keep up with weekly bedding changes and baths. BUT the kids love them. So we deal. They are kinda cute....

the brown one looks like the one in the movie bedtime stories. Also, Morgan (my husband) had guinea pigs growing up. He found out pretty quickly that he is VERY allergic...also, watch out, the have a tendency to eat their own body parts.

You're a nice mom. My kids will never have any pet other than a fish. Guinnea pigs scare me. :)
