The first bean flowers!

One other little plant has blossoms, too. We had rain last night, and all the plants in the garden needed it badly. It will be a great day to weed unless it turns out to be a great day for the pool. :)

But she is still so, so cute! The tooth came out yesterday, and number two is just barely hanging on.

The Chrysalis is Changing!

The outer part of the first chrysalis is becoming clear and wer are starting to see the wrind of the monarch butterfly. From what I read, we have about 24 hours from when this process started until the butterfly emerges. It's so exciting!

Monarch Caterpillar Pupating!

I was able to get some pictures of the caterpillar pupating last week. This is the link to the pictures: share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=8QYs3Ldo5aqICw. The time that passed during the pictures was less than 5 minutes! Emma Rose was totally engrossed in the process and watched with me the entire time!
