Wishlist Wednesday: a Pick from Cocoa Puff!

So, Cocoa Puff is going to be a skateboarder. No, really. He is fascinated by snowboarding, but hellooooo, we live in South Texas, so that's really probably not going to happen. We have some boys in the neighborhood who skateboard around and Cocoa Puff wants to join them. He also tries to use Froot Loop's Razor Scooter, which is pretty hilarious. 

Tutorial: How to make quick & easy Belts out of ribbon & D rings!

Paw Patrol is on a Paw-ty! My son's AMAZING Paw Patrol birthday party.

I'm pretty well known for my birthday parties. I go ALL OUT for my boys' birthday parties. I buy tons of food and spend months gathering decor and planning games and activities. Back in the fall, we had Froot Loop's 5th birthday party, and it was PAW PATROL themed

Kids Bored? Rainy Day? Let them play Mini Golf indoors!

Froot Loop had way too much destructive energy today so I made him an obstacle course for him to roll a ball through. Then we got the idea to grab his toy golf clubs so he could hit the ball through the obstacles! After he did this a few times, we let him free play.
