Hahaha, well, as you've been getting new pets lately... what's one more??
You made me laugh :D THANK YOU!

oh goodness - that is definitely not the pet for me! :)
My question is, where in the world did your kids spot this in Indiana. Too chilly in IN for alligators and crocs!
Plus, YIKES, have you seen the teeth on these things?
Good for you, stick with NO, NO, NO!

Well there you have it. You have discovered your pet collecting limit. Sounds like y'all are having fun.
Kids are wild, aren't they? I can't count the number of times I said NO.
You're a brave soul to get even that close!
