Wishlist Wednesday: I Think My Oldest is a Ninja Turtle Edition

I swear Froot Loop is turning into a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, specifically Michelangelo. He LOVES the color orange, he's free spirited and goofy, and he is obsessed with pizza. He could eat pizza all day, every day and never tire of it. 

Quickie Question: Am I the ONLY ONE NOT READY for Christmas?

Happy Monday, Happy Quickie Question time! How is it the middle of December already!? Christmas is in 2 weeks! 

Christmas Gifts Your Kids Can Make: Candy and Candy Cane Sleds Tutorial

I always have a hard time coming up with teacher gift ideas. I mean, they're so awesome and they've changed Froot Loop's life, and therefore, my life, for the better. I owe them so much! I browsed Pinterest for awhile and saw some cute ideas, and then I saw a derivative of this idea. I took the basic premise and made it my own. This is what I came up with. 

An Army of Angels: Now You Can Have Your Own Army of Weeping Angels

Long-time readers of this blog know that I'm a major Sci Fi fan: Doctor Who, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, etc. Y'all also know that one of my all time least favorite villians are in Doctor Who and are called the Weeping Angels. They're creepy! Don't blink! Don't even blink! 

So, this week's Wishlist Wednesday is actually sort of an ANTI-Wishlist Wednesday, where I put something on my Wishlist that I just HAVE TO HAVE. However, this week: DO NOT BUY ME THIS! 

Handprint Christmas Wreath Craft: So You'll Always Remember How Little Their Hands Are

Cocoa Puff and I made this really cute handprint wreath and I couldn't WAIT to share it with you! It turned out SO CUTE! It didn't take very long and he was able to do a lot of it by himself once Mama did all the tracing and cutting. 

Wishlist Wednesday: I SOOO would have bought this if it was around when my boys were babies.

Hello, Wednesday! I can't believe November is almost over. This is crazy. This year has gone by so fast! Without further ado, here's this week's Wishlist Wednesday...

Quickie Questions: Funny Things Edition!

Happy Monday! Happy Thanksgiving week. Froot Loop has the week off of school and my sister is here (YAY!) so we're going to pretty much have a week long party! Anyway, it's Monday, so that means it's time for Quickie Questions, where I ask y'all a super important questions to get y'all talking in the comments. This week's question: 

Thanksgiving Paper Bag Puppet Handprint Turkey Craft for Kids of All Ages

Thanksgiving is coming! If you need a fun, quick, and easy activity to keep the kiddos busy for a little while on Thanksgiving Day, this might be an option for you! Or, maybe your kids have the whole week off like mine does and you really need something to do with them. In any case, it’s really cute and very easy, so little hands can participate too. 

It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas: 9 Christmas Craft Kits for Kiddos!

Crafts are great. I'm blessed with a crafty brain and I enjoy doing them on my own as well with my boys. I'm also the planner/organizer/leader of our Wednesday night 3-6 year old Bible study group and I include a craft or two each week. I also do lots of crafts with my boys. Toward the end of this month, we'll start doing Christmas crafts. I come up with a lot of ideas on my own, but I found some ready to go craft kids on Amazon that I'd love to share with y'all.
