Yep, this is him, or her! Well, let's just say he's our pet for now! 
Robbie found this cute and cuddly guy traveling, ever-so-slowly, across the street and a couple of houses down, the other day. He came running back towards the house shouting, "hey Mom, I found a turtle, I found a turtle!!" We all looked over and see him barely being able to lift up this HUGE Tortoise up to his chest! Whoa!
Well, we still have the tortoise! After putting up, "Lost Tortoise" signs around the neighborhood and having not heard from anyone as of yet, he's staying for now! Add him to the list of odd pets at our house! We currently have one of the two snakes we hauled back from Utah this summer, (one escaped and we believe it is currently having a vacation in the backyard), lizards, 2 dwarf frogs and a myriad of insects and creeping things that have short life spans, (thank goodness!). I am often puzzled that I have such creature-loving children. I was (and still am!) the exact opposite! Hmmmm... ?
Robbie feeding the little guy lunch. Delicious! He's a great pet so far, appears to be healthy and is very quiet! My kind of animal!

My kids would love to live at your house. I have been able to continue my "no pets" policy with the exception of an aquarium with fish. But, you guys have reptiles. That would really win points with my boys.
Does this guy have a name yet? You are definitely brave to have so many creatures around ;) Thanks again for being patient with my crazy family! EVERYONE agreed that it was fun!! Well, except Kami - but I think she had fun moments running away from us! We are challenging subjects! ;)
How fun...we had a turtle once....it was smaller and we lost it for awhile...it hid under the couch for a couple of months! Enjoy!
I guess I'm one of the few remaining loser Mom's on earth that won't let my kids have a pet! Don't I have enough things to clean up after?!? Seriously!
We need to get together....call me!
That is too funny! Do you still have the little guy? You are such a cool mom!
