Gecko, not Geico

When Hilary and I came home today, Connor was holding a small Gecko. He found it...inside the house...in his laundry hamper...in his room! AHHH!!
Here are some pictures...



It was just a little guy, and it looks like it's tail is missing. Gross. Connor thinks he might have bitten it off. Gross. I can't believe that it was in the house! Hilary said that she smashed some sort of thing the other day, and she thinks it might have been a Gecko now. It was dark in the house, and she said she wasn't sure what it was, but it splattered. Gross!
I don't ever remember ever seeing a Gecko in Iowa. Could be a Texas thing, I have yet to see a cockroach. Ewww! I hear they are BIG!

  2. When I lived in California I think we used to put bandaids on the lizards stub... I don't think it helped but when you're in 2nd grade it makes you feel a lot better... :)

  3. oh my gosh it's so cute! my brother has wanted a pet gecko for a really long time. the next time you come home maybe you can bring a bunch of them with you...in your pockets, maybe? you can just collect them in your pillowcase or something. or they can all live in your bathtub!
