Craft Day

Once a week we go over to my VERY creative friend Brooke's house and do a craft. She has a three year old little boy named Nathan and Kayleigh loves to play with him. A couple of weeks ago they did some finger painting with flour, water, and food coloring. I tried my best to keep Zeb occupied with Nathan's toys but he was dying to join his sister. So I decided to let him give it a try. He LOVED it and decided that he should sit right in the blob of paint. His white cloth diaper became a different color very quickly. I ended up having to give him a bath at their house before we could go home. Since then they have done some bubble painting and built a miniature log cabin with pretzels, a milk carton and icing. I am so thankful for my friend and her willingness to include me in the craft activities.

Family Visit Day 5- Train Ride!

Today we got up and had a relaxing morning. Then I decided to take Hayley and Charlie to a local shop called Hearts and Hands. They have tons of handmade crafts that are beautiful. We finished up and had lunch at the restaurant next door called the Wicker Basket. After the kid's naps we headed to the train station to ride the train. It was so much fun. Kayleigh and Zeb loved it! Hayley and Charlie were able to see a little more of our city. It was a great day.
