A few things.














A few things...

-We're going over plants and seeds! My oldest absolutely loves helping in the garden. Right now she's observing a bean grow in a mason jar. Each day we take down a few notes and discuss the transformation of the bean.

- I planned an event at the park! It was wonderful.- Paint and bubbles in the park. A few moms showed up with their little ones and we all enjoyed the nice weather and chatted.

-I've been making shakers for my littlest one. She's moving and grooving. She's a very active baby and loves to shake things. Using an old cinnamon candy container, food coloring, and noodles, I was able to create a simple and fun shaker. 

-My littlest one is now 8 months. I'm continuing to nurse her and she's exploring pureed foods. Her favorite is a squash with brown rice. 

-Our oldest daughter loves reading to us now. She's so wonderful and we enjoy the time that she reads to us. Children truly are amazing!

- I'm gardening more now that the rain has come to an end. Honestly, I would love more rainy days. 

-My Fitbit ChargeHR finally arrived. I had been waiting since December for the plum color one to come out. I've been tracking my sleep, steps, workouts, and much more. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it's a heart rate activity wristband. It continuously takes your heart rate. Just click the ChargeHR link to learn more. :)

-I'll be painting a room or two in our home this weekend. - I need change! 

I hope you all have enjoyed your week! Have a beautiful and very happy weekend.

Welcome new readers! I'm so happy to have you here.

    It sounds like you've been very productive lately! Your event in the park sounds like a lot of fun. I'm glad it went well. I love that technique of planting seeds with the paper towel. It works well. I hope you're having a good weekend, Stephanie. :)

    Oh that all sounds like a lot of fun! My children have enjoyed learning about plants every Spring as well, I'm happy they do also because I never did when I was growing up. :) - Have fun painting! This is the perfect time to change some decor! xxo
