a turtle and a livi

Last week when Olivia came for a visit we got a nice surprise by finding a turtle in the yard.  Eli of course was very curious and gentle- wanted to know where his head and feet were and was careful when holding the turtle.  What fun for a 2.5 year old! The turtle was scared (and rightfully so!) so he stayed hidden in his shell and we didn't get to see him walk.  But Eli held him and watched him for a long time. 

 Isaac on the other hand thought the turtle should be a ball and kept trying to throw him!  Poor turtle :)

 Thanks for a great and sciency visit Livi!!!  We love you!
