I Have a New Kitchen

My new kitchen is mostly brown, but it's a great space to bake up some treats for my boys!

I made peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. I think the kids liked them...

Happy Birthday Baby!

Samuel is 1!! Wow, has this year flown by. It won't be long before my little is walking and talking now... He is just so joyful and such a fun little guy. We had an awesome meal to celebrate him. 

Awesome messy spaghetti. This is his favourite meal. 

And chocolate froggy cupcakes decorated by his big brothers. 

Okay, he is just way too adorable!!

I think he was completely surprised that we just handed him a whole entire cupcake! He held that thing tight and ate it all. 

Don't Rain on My Parade

So I planned to have summer vacation, I really did. But when I told Jacob summer vacation was starting he was not impressed. "But I like math and I want to learn about thunderstorms." And then he proceeded to detail the way he forsaw learning about thunderstorms. So here we are, in August, starting a new unit study on STORMS. We began by making rain clouds. This activity shows that when clouds get too heavy with water, they rain....

It's a shaving cream cloud! We filled the glasses with water and then added the cloud. We put food colouring on top and it makes its way through the cloud and rains! So cool!

Then, of course, we made purple and red rain too!

This was so much fun we actually used up all of Jeff's shaving cream.

What's new? BIG NEWS.

What's new? It's been awhile since I posted...

Jacob lost his first tooth, now he has a Goofy smile. He swallowed the tooth and was completely unaware it was gone, until Jeff noticed.

Samuel can stand up and walk along the furniture and he is always yelling for snacks.

Daniel still makes us all laugh with his antics; here he is a watermelon for sale. Yes, I will buy you.

And the BIG NEWS?

The Blue Kitchen is moving.
