Ants Marching


At last after several weeks of waiting.. the ants arrived!  Caden got an ant farm for Christmas from Kim and we've been waiting for it to be warm enough to order the ants.  Well they are here and becoming acquainted with their new home.  They've survived a few earthquakes from Cole's mood swings, but so far so good!  Still not much tunneling going on, you have to pre-"drill" a few holes to get them started before they go off on their own.  We are anxiously waiting some new tunnels!


Cole is wise young man and immediately went in search of the magnifying glass.  How he found it so quickly is beyond me since he can hardly find his shoes when they are sitting right in front of him!

Even Cora was excited for the ants and tapped on their home with a marker... I'm not sure they enjoyed that.

My first reaction is "Ewww!" and then my second reaction is "interesting!" and my third reaction is loving how the different kids are reacting to the ants in the pictures. :) Cute!
