A Few Fun Activities

So we tried a few of the fun little activities that we found on Pintrest.

We poured some milk into a dish and then added food coloring.


Then I put some dish soap on a toothpick and Logan swirled the toothpick through the milk.


It was pretty cool and he enjoyed it.


He wanted to drink the GREEN Milk, but I explained that we couldnt because it had soap in it. (Going to have to have green milk for St Patricks day :))!

What a cute little boy :)!

Next was adding water to corn starch. It was pretty cool! It was hard when you picked it up and then it turned to liquid and fell through your fingers. The website showed putting the tray on a speaker to make it vibrate and it actually dances. I am going to have to figure out something to make it vibrate next time, but we had fun anyway.

New Towels

Logan and Ashlee got some cute new towels. They LOVE them!

One cute puppy and one adorable kitty :)!


She loves hers so much that even after you get her dressed, she still wants to carry around her kitty towel!

Couldnt get Logan to stand by himself for a picture. But he sure loves getting out of the bathtub and wrapping up in his puppy towel.

LOL

Matthew brought home the Tuesday newspaper and it fit our family perfectly:
The first one of course hit what I think most days right on the head!
The second one hit what Matthew thinks most days right on the head!

This is what Logan thinks most day!
I don't think Matthew could have picked a better paper to bring home.

An Early Start to Spring Cleaning :)!

So Monday was a beautiful day. It was finally nice enough for Logan, Ashlee and I to spend a few hours outdoors. I guess I am just sooooo sick of being stuck inside because of crappy weather, that I did some yard work. Yep, I mowed our lawn, the awful looking weed patch in our front yard, and picked up all the trash that the wind blew into our yard. It was just so nice to spend sometime outside and I did something constructive. The kids were able to play and run in the yard. I think that we all really enjoyed our day outside.

But that is just what it was, ONE day outside, because the next few days were cold, and windy. We are so ready for nice weather to come and stay. At least I was able to get a jump on my lawn so that way it wont be like last year. I had to mow the lawn three times to get it to the length we like it, because it was such a wet spring. 

Since Tuesday was such a cold day, I stayed inside and did a lot of deep cleaning. I cleaned all but my living room and office. I was so motivated that I took down the all the blinds and washed them in the bathtub with bleach. Then I dejunked every room, meaning that I finally got rid of all the little stuff that we keep hanging on to. I now have a huge bag of junk to take to D.I. I also cleaned the ceiling fans. It feels good to get some of the major stuff off my to do list. Now I get to start tackling my projects list :)!

Now just get here SPRING and stay!
