Visiting The Butterfly Garden

Three little monkeys standing on a ledge.

Henry with his buds Porter and Miles Orvetti.

Hard to see here, but there were hundreds of gi-normous butterflies fluttering all around us, and sometimes landing on us. Here they've set out a plate of melons and tomatoes to attract the butterflies. Henry was thinking he'd discovered a tasty snack.


This will go down in history as the first (but certainly not last) fountain Henry jumps in. He went all the way under too. Got sopping wet. By some miracle of the parenting gods, I was carrying a FULL CHANGE OF CLOTHES for the child, and (believe it or not) a towel. Now normally I carry silly putty, stale crackers, and some Mentos covered in dryer lint. So it was quite a Mama-bear coup.


Henry in his new outfit, and me with my new and ever expanding belly. We had an Ultrasound last week, so we know Humphrey is healthy and thriving. Although we don't technically know if he's a Humphrey or Humphreyetta.

Porter looks extremely concerned in the group shot. As if he can tell someone will end up underwater and assumes it will be him (again).

All three boys look like they were caught about to do something they shouldn't - so cute!

Odd, you look mah-velous...
