The kids are entering a new phase....gone are the days of cool baby bath toys and welcome to the days of long luxurious bubble baths (while Kids Bop is being played on the iPod too!)
Sometimes I wonder why as parents we ever even bother buying toys!!!! This little guy looks like he is having fun just playing in the bubbles!
That is right folks...it is time, GARDEN TIME!!!!! Last year we all worked very hard planting, preparing the ground, watering daily, and weeding. Well we loved watching the fruits of our labors grow and we really loved eating all the home grown goodies...so here we go again!
Our garden includes greenbeans, squash, melons, pumpkins, a variety of tomatoes, and zucchini...we can not wait!!!!!
This spring is apparently the spring that will be filled with all things science. Our first science lesson is on caterpillars. These little guys (5 to be exact) were delivered to us a few days ago and they have already grown so much. We have learned about how they will build their crysillis and then transform into a butterfly, we have read books, colored pictures, and now we are watching the real life metamorphosis... Honestly I do not know who is more excited: me or the kids!!??
Me and Payton were just having a little fun playing with the iPhoto on my MAC. This computer can take your picture and then the program can alter your pic in various ways. It can make you look silly, or in our case we opted for the classy sepia tint...This little guy is just so cheesy....I sure do love him!
You can call him Spike, Spikey, Spikers, Sir-Spikes-A-Lot....really anything you want...he doesn't mind at all. This is our tortoise. He is our family pet. No really...he is a pet. The kids are learning responsibilities, such as:
Okay....maybe she is a tad but silly too......I just love her!
