Baby Lane and I made it through our first week together!  She loves the bouncy seat and watching the kids play outside!

I found this game at Meijer.  The kids really liked it.  The little animals come apart and you hide each piece under a haystack.  They get to pick up two haystacks on their turn to see if the pieces match.  Very cute and simple!

I made this cookbook when I worked at a day care center for all the kids!  I am going to post more recipes out of it.....someday :)

Milk Taste Test

We taste tested different flavors of milk!  Most of them liked the chocolate!

Your probably wondering how I cut out such perfect circles.  I have a circle punch, it makes it SO much easier!

These are my nieces, aren't they cute?

All About Chickens

We read this book today!  The kids thought it was pretty funny!
