Butterflies and Flowers

Part of our 'B' unit for school included a science project with Butterflies. However, it was the middle of winter when we got to the letter B! So, I placed an order for the Spring and promptly forgot about it. The first week of May we were surprised and excited to discover our caterpillars in the mail!!! Yay!

They came in this fantastic container with food and everything. All I had to do was transfer them to our butterfly home while they were in their cocoons so that they could emerge into their new home. We released them with our friends (visiting us on the way to their vacation spot....so exciting!!) on May 19th. 




I'm sure that those butterflies are now thoroughly enjoying all of my beautiful flowers!


Just a few pictures to document Chloe's new milestone...using her own knife in the kitchen. She's so proud of this new skill and privilege!


Our smiley little man at 6 weeks.

Entertaining and adoring their little brother. They get so excited when they can get him to smile and coo!! It doesn't take too much on their part....he adores them too!
