Look What Came in the Mail Today!

We decided to order some painted lady larvae so we could watch their life cycle as they turn into painted lady butterflies! They finally arrived today and we are looking forward to watching our little caterpillars turn into butterflies! Beckett and Helen were so excited to find the box containing our caterpillars in the mailbox today, so I re-created "the moment" and went back out to the mailbox to take some pics!

Here is the culture cup with the caterpillars inside.

Beckett and Helen are creating their journals to document what we observe over the next three weeks! What fun content for the blog! (At least for me, the weird stay-at-home mom!) :)

The last few days.........

Jumping in the "jumpoline" at Nana and Papa's house with Beckett and Helen's cousins! Nana and Papa bought this really cool inflatable castle to let the grandkids play in and they all had a blast Saturday evening bouncing around in it! We just wish Ty and Marley lived a little closer so they could have been there, too!

Swimming with our friend and neighbor, Carson in his pool! (Or should I say "splashing" in his pool?) Needless to say, Beckett dis-places much of the water with each trip down the slide!
