Butterflies and Trains

The Franklin Park Conservatory had their exhibit of trains and butterflies. They were 2 different exhibits and the butterflies continue until September. We highly recommend seeing the butterflies. Sophia enjoyed looking from afar, but did not want one the butterflies to touch her. However, Miles jumped right in and almost squeezed this butterfly to death. You can see how different the kids are, Sophia will take her time to observe and Miles just goes. We can hardly stop him. The last 2 pictures are the kids enjoying the trains. Each child watched quietly until the trains came around.

After seeing the trains, we had to get our own motorized Thomas set from www.craigslist.org

So far the kids love it too, but Sophia gets a little freaked out when there are 2 trains on the track. She is sure that they are going to crash.
