The kids were so excited to see the lizard and immediately asked "Can we keep him???!!!!" As Amy didn't mind, we cleaned out the old fish tank (from our Canadian fish, eh) and made it into a terrarium.
Thomas proposed that Molly get to name the new pet. Right now the two suggested names are "Pet" and "Lizard", so I think someone else is going to name him.
We think its a Carolina Anole which, despite the name, seems to be native to the wetter parts of Texas (which Houston is).

So cute! My brothers always had anoles growing up, that is really fun.
So cool! We always have a lot of frogs around our house, but never lizards. I think it's amazing that so many others around town get them so often. Have fun with your new pet!
Maybe Chani will come over and run over it with a roller skate. Wait. . . is that too soon to mention that? Maybe you can watch it commit suicide by starving itself to death. Wait, is that too soon? Ok, fine, just let it escape and you can find it behind the dresser 2 months later as shriveled up as beef jerky. Is that Ok to say?
