Bob... the tortoise

For graduation, our friends Crissa and Jeremy gave Shawn a tortoise!! Definitely the most unusual gift... but they have 2 and Shawn had mentioned before that he has always be interested in tortoises! So here is our first family pet. He is named Bob because when Ory first say him he kept saying Bob and Bop (at least that's what it translated to for us!) At first Orin was cautious, but now we have to watch him closely because he loves to crawl after Bob and attack him!!! Luckily I was able to snap some picture of the two of them together... I was showing Bob off to the neighborhood kids and they were all getting Orin's attention... one thing Ory likes better than Bob is to show off!!! :)

You'll have to bring him over for a play date with Morty and Tubby. They can eat lettuce and dandilions together. I'm sure Kory would love it!

I have a tortoise that lives in Banning too, if like Emily said, he needs a playdate. It's name is Shelly or Sheldon depending on what it is. We've had it for over 20 years and it lives at my gparents house. They are interesting creatures. Do you have a place for it to hibernate in the winter?
