St. Patrick's Day

I'm really not an overly crafty mom and I wasn't going to do anything for St. Patrick's day this year as I've been very tired with this pregnancy.  But then we were driving in the car and Molly was telling me how excited she was for St. Patrick's day and the Leperchaun  to come and turn everything green and how awesome it was going to be so I felt pretty bad.  So the Leperchaun brought them books that I had already had to give to them (I'm always a fan of books).  We also had our milk turned green, green crepes with green whip cream and we made sugar cookies to decorate and then share with our neighbors.  We've made sugar cookies here and there over the years, and I am glad to say that the girls are getting much better at frosting them! They still insist on using a truckload of sprinkles on each cookie though!






I love making cookies and such, but we always have to share because if not I tend to eat them all and that's never a good things because most recipes make far to many cookies for just our family.  My neighbors probably think we just bake all day everyday with all the sweets we take around, but I'm okay with that.

Jesus Walking on the Water

Originally for gospel study I was printing coloring pages for them to color on, but I'm really loving just watching what they come up with.  It's so much more fun, and they get really into their drawings. Nora was upset about the black "narwhal" on her picture, because little sister Emy added that feature, and it was not appreciated.

Baby Time

I've mentioned before that this one is a very messy eater and so she usually gets a spray down in the sink in the morning which she absolutely loves. Then we get her dressed and have some reading time before school.  This morning she wasn't interested in sharing her chair...

Sophie Mouse

My girls LOVE the Sophie Mouse books, and to be honest so do I.  They are cute stories that build good character.  There is no questionable material in them, they are just good books! They are an early reader chapter book, so they have some illustrations, and the stories are fun and easy to follow.  Molly my 7 year old read them all last year. This year I read them aloud to Nora my 5 year old before bed, and she will probably read them on her own sometime next year.  She is still frustrated pretty easily by reading even though she can do it, so we keep things pretty short in that area for now.  If you haven't read the adventures of Sophie Mouse and you have little girls at home (or even little boys!) I highly recommend them!
