Boys and bugs

I know having a son will include a lot of little critters coming home, and it stared the other day with Zack.
He's already chased a few ants around the side walk at park and petted snake at JCC family day. Friday he caught his first bug, a Rollie Pollie bug (otherwise known as sow or pill bug).

He loved it!! At first I had to hold it so he could say "Hi".






Then he started to warm up to the idea of holding it...

Eventually he held it gently and tried not squish the poor thing....It rolled up at few times which he thought was super cool.

Of course, like all animals he had to give it a "hug"! We put quotes around hug because you have to say "huuuuggg" when you give animals a hug.
