Snow

This is a stegosaurus salad. I babysat. We also made different colored playdough, finger painted, played alphabet bingo and Uno.

This was quite a few months ago. I haven't had time to post these pictures. (The snow is actually starting to slowly melt now.) So, the three winters that we have been up here this is the most snow we have seen. This is not the most snow that has been here. The eyes are Sally's head poking through. It was deeper than her.

My Brakes

Well, my brakes on my explorer needed some work. Maybe this was the reason I was having the nightmares. Ever since we fixed the breaks, I have not had any more nightmares. Who knows?!

My Therapy for Infertility

Last weekend I had a slumber party with a five year old. It was a blast!!! I had the most fun. Our activities we did were...
-made playdough, and played with it.
-ate popcorn and watched Cinderella
-made a fort out of blankets and the kitchen table, sat under it to watch Cinderella.
-Played Don't Break the Ice.
-Decorated cupcakes
-Slept in the living room on a twin mattress with Savanah, Sally slept on the floor next to the mattress, and James slept on the couch.
-Ate pancakes, eggs and sausage for breakfast.
-Read stories.

In two weekends, I will have another slumber party with Savannah. Our agenda for that party so far is...
-Pudding finger paint
-French toast people for Breakfast.
-Picnic in the living room.
-making banana bread from scratch.
-melting crayons and putting them in the shape of hearts.

Tomorrow I will make Oobleck with Savannah. I made some tonight by myself, and I played with it at work as a Dr. Suess day celebration. (read across America). (If you don't know what it is... it is an interesting substance that is a liquid and a solid. Easy to clean up and very fun to play with for little kids under 10. Or in cases like me you never grow too old for it.)
These are all activities that I would do with my own kids or I have been wanting to do for a while and was thinking I would do them when I have kids and then I decided I couldn't wait any longer.
