March in New England is anything but predictable! It is a tease of warm sunny days outdoors, hiking or biking or cleaning up the yard, mixed with cold damp raw days that send you indoors to curl up with a favorite book, warm blanket and a few of your favorite youngsters.
This past weekend was a warm one, and on both days we went letterboxing with cousins! Of course, at 4 and 3, my children are less interested in the actual box than in the hike and spending time with cousins (who are 6 and 8 and very good at letterboxing).
On Sunday we went to Camp Titicut, which is right long the Taunton River.
On Monday night, the kids and I made our leprechaun traps, and left our shoes on the window sills.
I thought for sure we’d get them with this one…
Alas, once again, the little elves played with our toys rearranged our house, left some silver and gold, and some how escaped the traps!
This week was also the week our caterpillars arrived. Yes, I did actually pay money to buy insects!!! So, we have 10 baby Painted Lady Butterflies that were sent via Fed Ex, and a butterfly house for them once they decide to change (transform). They are cute, but very little…we have already lost one, lol We are doing a lot of studying about butterflies, and hope to be able to find some chrysalis’ this spring.
