Callapitters
So I am a slacker. But it isn’t my fault this time! Ok it is, but I have an excuse. A GOOD one. Ellie’s birthday was nearly 3 months ago and with her birthday money she bought one of those bugville pop up tents. She was soooo excited! I however was not thrilled because it does not come with the bugs. You have to mail away for them. PLUS you have to pay extra for the bugs! PLUS they didn’t include an envelope so you have to actually get off your lazy but, write a check, fill out a form, find your envelopes, stuff it in there, go buy stamps, then mail away for it.
See how much effort that is? Good. You’re on my side. So you can see how it took me nearly 3 months to get around to it.
Well our little fellers got here today. They are pretty darn cute let me tell ya. You can hold them in your hand and they tickle you and crawl around. They wave their little heads in the air like they are sniffing and poop on your fingers. That part is more funny than cute. And more funny when it’s not your fingers being pooped on.
Here’s Ellie and Emily enjoying our new friends. 
One of Ellie’s last baby words is “callapitter”. I’ve corrected her but she still says it anyway and it makes me all happy and warm inside that she still has a baby word.
Hello little callapitter!
There is 5 all together. This one she named Julian. The she named the others Beautifly, Dexter, Pandy and Fred.
I just hope she will leave them alone. As much as I like the lil creatures I’d rather them not be crawling around the house.
Ok Julian? Stay inside you’re over priced pop up tent until you make your chrysalis. Pwetty pwease?
