Today we went to the Butterfly Rainforest and had a wonderful time! The weather was perfect (I will never go there again in August!!) and both kids seemed to really get a lot out of it. They both were sick at the end of last week with croup, so today was a nice fresh-air outing. Hope you enjoy our documentation of the day...

First things first, here I am VERY pregnant at 34 weeks...when are those babies going to come??

If I didn't have two kids with me and two on-board, I could tell you the species of this one...

A quick break with Daddy...

The Atlas Moth, which was as large as Todd's hand...

Hello Franklin...

Lily and a mammoth--they are HUGE!!!

The little gang...

I am pretty sure this is a Monarch, but you can correct me if I am in error...

We were discussing what happened in the next picture...

That's a butterfly landing on Lily's hand--she was startled but thought it was neat...
