A Fish Called... Eric

 Anna has her very own pet!  It's a fish!  And his name is Eric.  FYI... when we showed Kevin the fish, you would've thought we brought home a 200 pound dog!  His words were "We don't need another pet!"  Really!?!  It's a fish!
The story behind the name:
Anna's not really into naming her toys.  Instead she will call them by the color they are, for example, Pink Baby.  We thought for sure that this fish would be given the name Purple Fish so we tried to encourage her to come up with a unique name for the fish.  I gave her several suggestions... Bubbles, Fin, Shark Bait... in which she said no to all of them.  Then Kevin suggested Eric, who is his BFF and one of Anna's most favorite people.  Anna loved the idea and decided that the fish's name will be Eric the Fish.  So there you have it.    A fish called Eric. 
Look at my fish Mommy!
