"pie pie pilion"

We woke up to another rainy Colorado day. (Rare for sure, but 8 of the last 10 days or so have been rainy!). Staying in the house all day would have made us stir crazy, so we headed off to the butterfly pavilion (or the pie pie pilion) as Noah used to call it.

This is Caleb pointing at a "bird eating" tarantula!

Here's Noah pointing at some other creepy bugs!

Caleb touching the starfish

Noah is pretty timid, so he's always been too scared to touch the crabs and the starfish, etc. Today he wanted to do it all, and even talked to one of the volunteers for a bit about horse shoe crabs! It's really neat to see him coming out of his shell a bit!

Noah's favorite thing of the day was the beanbag game in the human maze. Caleb really liked it too, although he didn't exactly play by the rules...

Our clever little guy decided it would be much more effective to climb onto the game and just walk up to the hole and drop it in.

Is that a cocoon? No, it's just Noah!
