Mid September and such

Almost ready to "hatch"...

Any time now...

BUTTERFLY!

Kieran can hardly believe it! After all this time talking about it- the butterfly is finally here! We have successfully raised four butterflies from tiny little caterpillars to big, beautiful monarchs- what a fantastic experience :)

Touch down!

Kieran checking out the new playground at Nana and Papa's

I think he likes it ;)

King of the mountain!

Papa cleaning the new slide...


Helping Papa clean

Papa gives Kieran a boost so he can get the high spots clean too ;)

Checking out the tunnel- spooooooky!


Now there's a boy who loves his Papa ;)


A monarch caterpillar in the wild (at Papa's house)

A great big spider in his web down by the pond

Up the ladder...

Look! A pumpkin and gourd! We got these earlier that evening at the Ashland farmer's market- Kieran insisted ;)

Kieran really enjoyed rolling the pumpkin and gourd down the slide- even though he has yet to do so himself ;)

Cousin Presley arrives!

Kieran attempts to help Presley up the slide...

Although Kieran insisted that the pumpkin was all his, he was very eager to share his gourd ;)


Throwing acorns in the gazing pool!

Hmmmm... something is a bit off about this photo ;) Papa invited the kids down to watch a "controlled" burn

Auntie Shannon teaches the kids to do a "hoe-down"

Both the kids love to play in the birdbath



Kissing Nana's bird statue??

Kieran making his tooting sounds- learned this little gem from his auntie- thanks Shannon ;)

SPLISH!!

SPLASH!
