Today

It's been a busy couple of months and there are many blog posts in my head to catch up on all of our happenings.  But for now, I'll just write about what is going on today.

I actually followed a pinterest idea and got my kids working on a car path project.  The pictures only have Amy in them, but everyone was involved (but Aaron and Jessi have moved on to other activities and the boys are napping.)  Aaron helped lay the tape.  Jessi and Amy made signs.  I helped cut the boxes for the stores/buildings.  Aiden and Bryan zoomed their cars.  Now Amy has added a palace and princesses and even a carnival to our little city.  There is also Walmart, Library, Fire Station, a Diner and Chinese Restaurant.  Amy's been busy with this for 3 hours so far and is still going strong.  What a great idea!



Note to self: Maybe next time I'll make one in Amy's room so that she doesn't feel like the boys wreck it.  The boys didn't peel the tape up, but did mess up the signs and stores.

Wow, that looks amazing! How fun! Your carpeted deck is perfect for it. But yes, as I was reading it I was wondering how it would withstand toddlers. I know Toby tears apart every track Nate tries to make. But still, it kept them busy and happy for at least one day!

You're such a great mama. I'm impressed once again. She's getting big, and her hair so sooo long!

Kristen, that looks like a lot of fun! One of these days we should get our kids together - I bet they would have a ball.
