Our caterpillar is growing!

Really fun, neat thing we are doing to showcase Marlee's work during the week. Makes it easy for daddy to see what we've been working on! Idea came from my friend, Virginia.

Two different angles. It's in our hallway (between the thermostat and huge 70s doorbell thing, LOL!). Just ribbon and clothes pins, held up with those plastic hook things. My friend Virginia used push pins.

Marlee coloring while Phoebee plays.
