Working on our Christmas gifts early

So I  know its a bit early but I thought it would be fun to make some of our gifts this year. I Love getting creative and getting our son involved so I thought I would share...

I found this amazing stuff called Air Dry Clay made by Crayola


This stuff is amazing!
Here is what we have made so far and I still have a few more things I want to do...





Aren't they adorable....I figured once they dry here in a few days I may let our son paint them or I may do it depending on how brave I feel then add some ribbon to make them an ornament for the Grandparents.
After all what Grand parent doesn't like toddler feet :)

I will post up the end product after we are all finished.



So my little Mr. Decided he would wanted to climb on the kitchen table and shattered all of these adorable little foot and hand prints :( Now we need to come up with something new.

Banana Pancakes for Breakfast





This morning I decided that it would be fun to make some homemade Banana, Vanilla, Cinnimon Pancakes for my son...needless to say he LOVED them. Especially since I made them Mickey Mouse Shaped :)

I love being a Mommy!

Its been awhile....

So Thank you to my friend Ang, I just realized that I need to update my blog more often :) Things have been a bit crazy around here. My business is booming, I am finally losing weight and we have been getting out as a family every weekend. I absolutely love this time of year. The smell of wood burning stoves, leaves falling from the trees and the cool crispness in the air makes it perfect sweatshirt weather.

Coleton is talking a TON more and is putting sentences together. He amazes everyone around him with how much he talks and how much you can understand him. We are raising a budding genius.
We practice colors, numbers and letters with him and we also  do a TON of art projects but his favorite is to just color with markers. He loves to make "tattoos" on himself with the markers which makes bath time so much fun.

Alright I am of to add pictures of what we have been doing over the last few weeks.

Thanks  for following :)
