Science Sunday: Tadpoles Pt 2

Just wanted to update everyone on our new pets.  Yes I said pets.  Steven decided he wanted some more tadpoles, so after church a couple of weeks ago he headed down to the little river where we have our baptism services and caught 2 more tadpoles.  

So, we started out with 1:

Aug 7th

You can sort of see his little back legs

And of course it is growing:

Aug 14

Can you tell the legs are getting bigger?

Aug 17

He/she has front legs now.

Aug 19

A shot with all three of them

The one on the right is the first one we got, he/she is older

Look at those looong legs.  Really looking like it is a frog.

Same day, close ups

(because I finally learned how to take close-ups

on my camera)

Notice the one still doesn't have front legs.

I love this picture, you can barely tell there is still a tail there.

Aug 20

He/she gets up on the rocks a lot more now and is using 

legs more, tail less.

Still no front legs on this one

Not sure if you can tell but this one (the oldest/

one we had longest) has its head out of the water.

Once again I think mommy is getting more of a kick out of this than the children.  In fact they were really still the one day, and I got so worried they were dying.  I fed them, because I wasn't sure when Steven did last (He is very busy getting prepared for his first day of college Monday) and they perked up.  

I am linking this up to Science Sunday hosted by Ticia over at Adventures in Mommydom.  Head on over to check out what others are experimenting with/learning.
