Snails

Our little girl loves to play in the dirt and where there is dirt there are bugs. I bought her this little bug catching kit from the dollar store and it was one the greatest $1 investments I have made, besides the sidewalk chalk. She has taken every adult in her life on a bug catching walk around our circle and has come home with some pretty fun stuff; grass hoppers, spiders, box elder bugs, potato bugs and one night we found this snail. This picture is one of my absolute favorites!!

Taylor let this snail crawl all over her for hours. She was absolutely intrigued by this creature she had never seen before, in real life that is.

She was trying to figure out what those 'sings are pokin out mom'?
She ended up putting her snail in the pockets on the front of her shirt and the snail of course left it all slimy and we took her shirt off, that is why she is naked in these next photos

And then she took her new friend on a drive around the yard. One of the most entertaining nights this summer
