Monday, January 31 - My kids LOVE creating things. They get very creative sometimes. They love play dough, legos, and pretty much anything that lets them create. They played with this play dough set for a few hours before putting it away and moving on to something else.
Tuesday, February 1 - My cousin Tiffany's son's school had parent teacher conferences this week so every day was early out day. She met me downtown at the children's museum. My girls, and her boys had fun playing, exploring, and building. Her boys were especially excited about the building part. In the play grocery store the groceries were all over the place so Kaylee put on the stock associate apron and started putting things away. A few employees came through to clean up and saw what a great job Kaylee was doing and they gave her a toy out of a special cabinet for her ta take home. She was so excited, and made sure the store area was completely clean before we could move on to the next area.
Wednesday, February 2 - I asked Gabby if she wanted to help make dinner, and she was super excited to crumble the Ritz Crackers for parmesan chicken. While the chicken was in the oven cooking she helped me make mashed potatoes. She wanted to put the potatoes through the potato ricer all by herself.
Thursday, February 3 - It turned out to be a pretty busy day. It started out doing some homeschool work, the I ended up picking up my sister from the car dealership where she had just dropped off her van to get fixed and took her to work. I took my fluffy little dog to the groomer, went to the library where Gabby got 21 new books, we met up with my mom at Target and then went to lunch at Kneaders. After lunch we took lunch from Kneaders to my little sister at work, took keys to the car lot where my little sister's car is sitting totalled from hitting a gas station, and the went shopping with my mom at Sam's Club...then it was time to pick up my not-so-fluffy doggy from the groomer, go home, and make dinner. Once again Gabby was more than thrilled to be my little kitchen helper to make sloppy joes, even if she did refuse to eat the finished product.
Friday, February 4 - I picked my little sister Marla up from work and she came over to my house so we could make some amazingly delicious Samoa Cheesecake Bars. They ended up taking FOREVER to make. They did turn out delicious though. We learned a few things while making them, and by the end we were getting a little out of control.
Saturday, February 5 - With the leftover chocolate from the Samoa Cheesecake Bars the girls and I made some zoo animals with a chocolate mold. We had lions, and monkeys, and hippos! After we made our zoo animals we went shopping at Lowes, and RC Willey to find some new flooring for a few areas in our house. Stay tuned to see our new flooring. We got new laminate wood looking flooring for the kitchen at Lowes, and RC Willey will be here on Friday to install carpet in the downstairs family room.
