New additions

After my hamsters sadly perished in this Oklahoma heat I needed something to love on. So we got a fish.

Meet our Crowntail Beta, Little Chunk.

However, a fish just wasn't fulfilling my need to . . . mother (for lack of a better word). So, today I talked my husband into getting kittens. Yes, you read that correctly. This dog lover and that allergic to cats man now have two adorable kittens. Itty bitty ones.
(No, I'm not pregnant, just chunky)
Tonight while Anthony was in the Priesthood Session of General Conference I ran some errands with Erica. I got home about two minutes before Anthony, and there were no kittens to be found. The door was locked, the bedroom & bathroom & patio doors were closed and there was no explanation of where two living breathing creatures could have gone. We scoured our entire apartment, took apart bedding, pulled out and looked under furniture, kitchen appliances, etc. No kittens. Anthony thought he heard some squeaking in the couch so it now has some large window cutouts in various areas of the back and sides. You also read that right. My allergic to cats husband literally ripped our couch apart trying to find lost kitties, to no avail. By this point I'm getting a little emotional and we decided to say a quick prayer.
Anthony decided to check under the ledges of the drawers and guess what he found under the bottom drawer?
The little stinkers found a gap we didn't even know existed and climbed right on in. If Anthony hadn't felt that gap and thought to pull the drawers out I don't think we would have found the naughty little fuzz balls.
See how they climbed in? The drawer was still out at this point because I found the following items jammed in the back, must have been falling out of drawers over time.
A ton of grocery bags, a washcloth, soup can label, alarm system agreement, and a ladle.

After a prayer of thanks our little storm clouds are now hiding/napping under the ripped up couch while I clean.

Now, if you're read this far you get to partake in a little fun!
We can't think of names for these cuties. Want to help?
We want to stay away from cutesy stuff like; Tiger, Cloudy, Fluffy and so on.
Please leave your name ideas in the comments and we'll let you know what we decide!

P.s. since Anthony is allergic to cats and we don't know how well my "you have a cat when you're allergic" method is going to work... so I have heavy-heartedly agreed to give them away if his allergies get bad. If that's not love on both of our parts I don't know what is.
