Leaping Lizards

Sam is trying to convince us 

that he needs this ...

The neighbor kids'

mama lizard is having babies

She has been guarding her 5 eggs

like a good mama should

Well, she did a good job 

and they are starting to hatch

{under the watchful eye of a lot of kiddos}

  {the lone egg left to hatch}

How cool is that!?!

i love that they get to witness this slice of life actually happening

right before their eyes

{I mean, I have never got to see lizard eggs hatch}

Brad and I keep telling Sam "no."

we don't want to take care of a lizard

BUT ...

they are soooo cute

I might help Sam try to convince Brad

tonight!






Update: Brad wasn't too hard to convince
