Butterflies

These came in the mail this week. I know your jealous. I mean, not that many people get insects in the mail.
Welcome to my life with three boys.

We opened up the little box to check out our larvae (soon to be butterflies). Aren't they cute? No? I didn't think so either. But what do I know. According to the directions they get to sit in this little jar and eat that brown stuff until they cling themselves to the top (I'm actually holding the cup upside down...oops). Then at some point we transfer them to this fun butterfly house we have and Voila! Butterflies! The boys can hardly contain their excitement.

And in less then a week these little buggers have become quite big. And kind of creepy.

To be continued....
