What's that saying about little boys, snails and puppy dog tails???

Does that work for girls too? Aidric has never been particularly fond of bugs, worms or anything that moves really. He likes dogs in theory, but not too close. Juliet is the exact opposite. We can't walk from the front door to the car without her searching for snails and trying to take one with us.

Chris and Aidric were doing a Home Depot run and when I asked Juliet what she wanted to do, she immediately said, "Play outside!"...we went out and I realized when she immediately went to the plants to start her search, it was a good opportunity to document her current favorite hobby.

By the time I grabbed my camera, she had her first capture....



She miraculously looked at the camera AND smiled for me...once. After that, I had to settle for profiles and back shots. She was busy with her snails.




She likes to move the snails to a new spot..it's usually the rock, but for some reason, it was the front steps on this day.




But one snail wasn't enough..she went back in to find another.


This is where she likes to "collect" them.


Oh, my girl! She begs to wear a tutu or a pwetty fwess every day, but do not mistake her for being a girly girl!
