I guess I will start with how we met ! Well, I am a mom, college student and I work, so in the summer I make sure every weekend is filled with fun for the kids! Because when schools in moms swamped in homework! But our summer did not start off so fun, our hamster chewy of 2 1/2 years passed away peacefully in his sleep. We were pretty sad, the kids cried for days 
We had a service and burial for him and invited the family it was quite nice <3.... Not too long after the question came " mom can we get another hamster?" I told the kids I would think about it, I did not want to have to go through this devastation, every two years !!!!
One Saturday morning We set out to the petting zoo in Waterford WI, (we are animal lovers this was the second petting zoo we had been to this year)
When we first arrived, outside were kittens, bunnies, chicks and two ring tailed lemurs! The kids immediately asked if we could take any of the animals home, I told them they were not for sale! But to my surprise the kittens were free to good home and the bunnies were five dollars! I am allergic to cats so the kids knew that was a no go, so they focused in on the bunnies. A bin full of furballs aka lionhead bunny babies We walked around the petting zoo for a hour or two and played with the monkeys before, I decided, YES OKAY we are taking home a bunny!
THAT IS WHEN IT ALL BEGAN!
The kids named him Melton right away, I thought it was a nerdy name but hey, they are three and came up with a name on their own I was proud! ..........
Well as the days went on, we started to fall in love, NOW he is part of our everyday routine and loves to be included! We lucked out with a lover bunny<3 He loves to lay on or by us....and when we are busy he will go in his cage and wait till we sit down to see if we want to play! Things were perfect WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH!
WELL ALMOST PERFECT ! I AM ALLERGIC TO THE VERY THING THAT MAKES MY FAMILY SO HAPPY But I am coping and would never EVER consider giving him up!
Below are pictures of the day we got Melton
One is of my twins begging for a bunny ( I blurred their faces for obvious reasons)
The monkey picture well, I just thought that was cool we played with monkeys
and the last one is when we got home (we changed of course out of the dusty farm clothes from earlier) BUT IT SHOWS how much he has been LOVED SINCE DAY ONE!
