What I Did Over the Weekend

This weekend was really exciting! I got two baby hamsters! We were origionally going to go get a few frogs, but ended up coming home with a baby hamster! On Saturday all I did was watch him roll about the house in his little ball. On Sunday, we went to the pet store to get him an exrcise wheel, and ended up coming back with ANOTHER hamster! At first, when I put them both in the cage they were getting long. But as the day went along, they started to fight more, and when I went to pick one of them up, he bit me! They have been sleeping, while being guarded by my cats, Henry and Emily. After a long time of trying to think of names for the little guys, it finally hit me! Their names are Manny and Buddy and now they are really getting along now! I hope they stay that way!
