Ingenious!

After the boys were done playing with the tunnel, Matt created a new game! Attach the tunnel to the basketball hoop and always make it! Plus the ball comes back to the person throwing it! What a win-win activity.
Also, we hope you've enjoyed Dylan's new glasses made out of velcro.

Another Ultrasound

I had another ultrasound today. Guess what? She's still a girl!!

Nothing new to post

We are all still here, alive, and mostly well. Dylan has a small problem walking due to an internally bruised leg (doctor's opinion), growing pains (Isaac's opinion), or being Dylan (my opinion). Either way, it's been a week that he has hurt, limps, and wakes up at night for me to "hold my leg!!". We usually apply an ice pack.

Riley is just being cute, as always. If he gets sad or mad he goes in a corner to hide. Levi likes to play his leapfrog educational question electronic game thing from Grandpa and Grandma. He also likes Math.

Our new rule/goal

Today I implemented a new rule in our house, which prompted Dylan to cry for 25 minutes. Our new rule/goal is that we must eat a piece of fruit or a vegetable before eating a "snack".

We had this snack box which had yummy things in (this is not the candy stash). Dylan was able to open the cupboard where the snacks were and would constantly eat them. He is totally a grazer.

Well, this morning I informed everyone of the new rule, which also applies to me. Dylan listened and then went to get a snack. I told him that he had to eat a fruit or a vegetable first. He cried and cried and cried. Finally he decided that he would eat a banana and then get a snack. However, I distracted him and he just ended up eating the banana. All day it has worked!! We've eaten celery, bananas, and pears.

Since they are quite willing to eat a fruit or veggie to get what they want it should work nicely. I am quite excited!

Merry Christmas!

I'm just getting started!

Look at the lovely bows I've made for little Hannah! I am so excited! I'm just getting started too!! This doesn't include all the ones on headbands that I have too. Plus, I had to show you my zebra bow that I just made because it's stinking cute. Thanks for letting me share my excitement with you!
