Ok, so I am completly addicted to "Pinterest"! They have some really crafty idea's to DIY!
This is a homemade sensory bag! You squirt hair gel into a zip lock bag and add food coloring. I used packing tape and sealed the top.
This week Madelyn turned 8! I can't believe what a wonderful young lady she is becoming. We had her birthday party today at the bowling ally! The kids had so much fun and I didn't have to clean up anything! I didn't have to clean my house before the guest arrived, nor did I have to clean when everyone left! It was a wonderful day! Also, Joe grilled when we got home!!! Did I mention it was a wonderful day!!??
This is the Barbie doll cake that I made for Maddie's party. It is a chocolate cake covered in buttercream frosting. Yes, this is a real barbe doll inside the cake!
I also make sugar cookies that look like dresses.
I have to brag a little about my kids. They have all been so patient with me the last 3 weeks. I have had cakes to do for the past 3 weekends and they have all helped in anyway they can. If it is helping with the younger ones or even helping each other with any questions they have about their lesson. I have been truely blessed with loving kids. The past two years since our kids have been in public school their attitude changed toward each other. Just in the past couple of months of homeschooling and teaching them values again, I can see a huge difference. I see them working together again and trying to help each other.
We have always taught our babies sign language. This week was a huge milestone for Ryan. He can now sign "please", "thank you", "bite", "drink", "more" and "all done"! We have been signing to him for months and just this week he started signing back and using sign language to tell me things! I love seeing him learning new things!! I am just so proud of him!!
I hope everyone has a great week.
