The naming of Patrick...

Since 2/3 of you asked how we named Patrick I thought I'd just answer in a post.
Devon originally wanted to name him...gosh I don't even begin to know how to spell this but...Talkadooeea???
It sounded like a mixture of Taquito and Sacagawea.
I said no.

I'm sorry but that is just a ridiculous name.

So, I was suggesting names for her and I've always thought it was funny to name animals human sounding names. We had a cat growing up that we named Carl for example. So I suggested Fredrick and Devon said no and then I suggested Patrick and she responded with "how about Sponge bob" to which I replied with "no, you named the last one Gut, let's give this one a somewhat normal name". She said that Patrick would be a good name. So, that's how we decided on Patrick.

You seriously crack me up! I can't imagine having a hamster, and naming one would be even harder! :)
