It's Twins!

Yesterday a box marked perishable was delivered to our house.
Our frog aquarium kit that was ordered through our charter school finally came!
The kids were so excited.  Me too!
Anastasia and Sveta took notes on the steps it took to set up the aquarium from opening the box to transitioning the frogs into their new home.
The kids learned that the frogs needed to be acclimated to the new water temperature.
We couldn't feed the frogs for the first 24 hours.
Honestly they were so lifeless at first, I thought they would probably die.
But today was different.  The frogs were floating, swimming, and digging.
Now if only we can decide on names.
Maybe you can help.

A.) Foofoo and Fifi
B.) Drake and Josh
C.) Frog and Toad
D.) Phineas and Ferb
E.) Jelly and Belly
F.)  ??

A huge thank you to the show of support with all your votes.  The girls are having so much fun checking to see how many votes we have.  Anna is doing more math than ever and she doesn't even realize it.
"Now we're 10 votes ahead!"
"Now we are 16 votes ahead!"
"Oh darn.. We are down 3 votes!  Can I call my friend up north and tell her to vote?"
If you haven't gotten in in on the action yet, or you need a reminder

How cool! My five year old suggested Hip and Hop. Also, I think having the girls track your votes is a clever way to sneak in some math.
