EAT and POOP

Mikaela said, "All he do is EAT and POOP!" We kind of agreed with her. Grampa gave Kyron and Mikaela - 1 cocoon and 2 caterpillars (one is very tiny - baby). Now we have two cocoons and 2 caterpillars (again! there was a baby in there and one had grew - Mikaela couldn't believe in her own eyes).

The caterpillar was baby when Mikaela first saw and now he/she grew so much. (I think she is she because there was a other baby in there and I took out and put in other container because he/she kept on escape through hole on top - when he/she gets bigger then will return back to that container.



Caterpillar - eating and pooping (all black dots are poops)

Baby - so tiny!!


Baby's poopies!


Waiting for new butterflies - probably within 4 days left. (Monrach)


Once it open (hatch). We will put them on Deck - let butterfly dry their wings and fly away - hopefully find a new homes in Maryland as they were orginally from New York.

Will take pictures when it comes out from cocoon.

Fun science project for Mikaela and as well for Kyron.

Grampa told Mikaela - next year the new project will be TADPOLE! urgh...

Syd has so many questions. "can I stomp it?.....where is it's face....where is it's bottom... where is it's home...why is it in her hand"...etc.etc.etc.

What a great thing for your kids to be able to participate in.
To watch the butterflies hatch.

Tadpoles would be awesome too.

Can your dad hook a sista up ? :)

Boys thought the poop pics were the best. Now they want me to take pics of their poop.
