Growing bigger and bigger!

We decided to look closely at the caterpillars and draw what we saw.  I even learned that it is NOT called caterpillar poo-poo, but “frass” is the official name!  Audrey drew what she saw in the jar and I labeled it for her.

 The girls LOVE looking at the caterpillars each morning.

 The other morning Audrey ran into her bedroom and came out with her video camera and cell phone!  Too cute:)
I LOVE this photo because it shows that some of the caterpillars have formed their chrysalis and a couple are still busy munching away at the food!
