The family pets

Uncle Thien is in town for Thanksgiving so we took this opportunity to show him how well the leaf bugs were doing. He was quite impressed: apparently our bugs are bigger than his bugs.


Malia wanting to hold them.


She's got the smaller one of the two.


Kael's got the bigger one. If you look at her tail, you can see an egg. Yes, she's laying eggs.


Taede checking out the bug. He's not sure what to do with it.


Hmmm.... another bug lover? Great....
Oh, did I mention the little one is filled with eggs too? Soon I'll have 2 egg laying huge bugs in the house. Lucky me.


Malia thinking it's cool to let it crawl on her.


Until it crawls too high and panic starts to creep in. Just a little bit...


I love his "What the heck is it doing?!" look.
