Butterfly Garden

Mark's dad bought the kids a butterfly garden when he was on a business trip a few weeks ago.


Baylee and Owen really had fun with it!



We just had to send in 3 dollars then they sent us 5 caterpillars in the mail.


It just took a few days before they spun their chrysalises.


Then about a week later they hatched! We didn't get to watch them hatch though. Mark and the kids just noticed them flying around in there one day, so they must have done it over night.
All 5 of our caterpillars made it to butterflies. I asked Baylee what we should name them and she thought Baylee, Daddy, Mommy, Owen, and Baylee Do were good names for them.
We kept them in the little cage for a few days then we let them fly free!
