Connor With His New Pets!

These cute, little, furry friends of ours just came to our home a few days ago. We were actually contemplating getting a guinea pig for Connor for Christmas and then we ran into both a cage and the guinea pigs for free so it was a hard opportunity to pass up. They came as fast friends so we just couldn't split them up. Connor loves them, especially now that they are getting used to their new environment and aren't as skittish.
We have names for them too. The first one (mostly brown) you see is Lucy. She's the ring leader and she's always the first to hatch a plan. The whiter one is Ethel. She tags along and follows Lucy, she's much more skittish too. Connor loves to be called their "Daddy" as he takes care of them like his Daddy takes care of him. He makes sure we give them an orange every morning and the guinea pigs always eat that first.
We're excited to have this new addition. These aren't technically our first pets since we have fish, but they are definitely more exciting and more work.
