We've been crafting like crazy over here! The boys and I made these adorable Valentine's Day decorations that are sort of a cross between a windsock and a mobile. They were pretty easy enough to make and I even had everything on hand to make them!
The boys wanted to make Grandma and Grandpa something special for Valentine's Day this year. We decided to make a handprint heart picture for them to hang somewhere in their house.
"Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams all around a pug-nosed dream."
Froot Loop got a big "Doll House" for Christmas. He could care less about the doll aspect of it: He wanted to remodel it and put furniture in it as well as wire it up with lights and fans and other electricity. It's going to be a FUN project for us to do together and I'm really looking forward to it.
My son's kindergarten class made these ADORABLE poinsettias. I was there helping them put them together and they were a lot of fun and very easy to make... Check out how we did them below:
We have a bit of a holiday tradition around here of having advent calendars. I made two of them... one for each kid... a couple of years ago and they're always a huge hit. The boys love counting down to Christmas!
Y'all! I have a HUGE announcement to make regarding Usborne Books & More:
Froot Loop loves electricity. Don't laugh. He does. He is obsessed with becoming an electrician. He loves light switches and fans and circuits and wires. His latest big thing is watching HGTV. He recently told me that there's only ONE THING he wants for Christmas...
There's all sorts of things you can make with handprints! I love handprint art. There's something about preserving the size of those sweet little hands... I look back on Froot Loop and Cocoa Puff's little handprints and I wonder how they ever could have been so small. They're growing up way too fast.
Oh boy. We were watching Network TV the other day (we don't usually because we have a Roku) and a commercial came on. Cocoa Puff got SOOOO excited and yelled, "I HOPE SANTA CLAUS BRINGS THAT FOR ME AT CHRISTMAS!" I was so taken aback that I couldn't help but laugh. It's already started, I guess! I mean, Christmas Eve is already only 2 months away...
