Nature study

I know you're probably expecting more grandparent pictures, but I really don't have many yet. These are from a few days ago:

Jaan was out in the kitchen observing our pet butterfly. (Ba-ka = babochka = butterfly in Russian.) Then we went back to check on Raia, who was supposed to be napping and found this:

What a sweet picture of Jaan and Raia, as well as them with Bernie and Julie. Hope you are doing great, Phyllis. We leave for Perm in 2 weeks. I can't believe how the time here has flown by. We have a website with pictures of Caleb. www.xanga.com/nofoolindulin
Love, Carrie

Remember how we had a butterlfy that stayed with us all winter when we lived in Moscow? One wanted to do that again this year. Unfortunately, butterflies don't do as well in crowded and child-inhabited apartments. I'm afraid she got injured and won't last long. :-( At least we got to enjoy her for a week!
