Release the Butterflies!

It was fun to have them around,
but it's time to let our butterfly friends go free...

even though they seem to be quite attached to Noah!

The caterpillars have emerged from their chrysalis!
(Thanks Aunt Beth!)

Noah managed to hold three at once - he is such a bug whisperer.

An inchworm provided the early morning entertainment

and a monarch caterpillar was the highlight of our trip!

The morning of my birthday,
we had a great time at the Museum of Science with Grandma and Poppa!

Scientist in training?

Butterflies!

One hitched a ride on Mommy!
