Valentine Heart Puzzle

We or I should say "I" cut out a bunch of hearts in different sizes. I then cut them zig zag down the middle. The kids had alot of fun, working together actually, :) to put the 2 halves back together. It kept them entertained for awhile :)

Cold Weather Bites!

The actual temperature is negative 6 and the windchill is negative 32....so that means going outside is out of the question. The boys are going stir crazy, I think it's national "time-out" day as many as I've dished out today, and its not even nap time yet! It's supposed to warm up to the 30's this weekend. I really hope it does, I need some fresh air!!! I guess it's another "craft day". I'm running out of Valentine crafts and games. I'm about to move on to St Patricks Day :)

Long Week, Short Weekend!!

Last week was a very long week and I didn't get all of my "to do" things done so I feel like I'm already behind for the week and it's only Tuesday. The snow storm just threw the whole week into a tailspin. We did get some sledding in and fort/tunnel building in Sunday before the weekend ended. I had a migraine all weekend so I forgot about a baptism I wanted to go to. I felt terrible. Then I had an appointment Sunday for a lady to come by for a walktrough/interview for daycare. I waited and she never came. That always pisses me off when they don't bother to even call. I cleaned and just waited for her to come. Then I thought forget it and took the boys outside to play with the neighbor boy. We built a fort/tunnels out of the enormous mountains of snow from the snow plows.

My Baby is 3 Today!!!

I am so surprised how I am feeling today. There's a house full of kids and I'm completely sad my son's 3 today??? I am the one who is usually happy they're growing up and hitting milestones, but today it hit me hard and I'm just sad he's getting older. It probably doesn't help that we're in the middle of a snow "event" as the weather people keep calling it. I have the boys coloring construction paper for birthday hats. They're having fun with that. Better go start taping them together.
