butterfly show at the krohn

my mom came over today and we took the kids to the krohn conservatory for the butterfly show. it was so much fun. although it was super HOT in the krohn, which was making my hair a bit frizzy and greta a bit cranky. well, who am i kidding? my hair was a giant frizz ball and greta was whining and crying and wanting to be held. other than that, it was actually really neat. the butterflies are amazing....they are so beautiful and colorful and they are EVERYWHERE. even otto was able to see them, he kept pointing at them as they flew by. right before we left, one landed on the bow on greta's hair (see picture above). i told her there was a butterfly on her bow, and she said, "where?" and swatted at the bow. the butterfly flew off, but then landed there again and i was able to snap a photo. when we were getting ready for naptime later at home, i took greta's bow off and she looked at it and said, "where's the butterfly?" :)
it was so much fun and i'm so glad we went again....i was WAY pregnant with otto last year and all greta wanted to do was climb up and down the stairs. this year, except for the temperature causing some difficulties, she was way more into the butterflies....
