Writing and Playing

Grant has taken an interest in writing his letters. So we have been working on practicing letters by writing words he finds interesting (ghost, spider web, monster, etc). Grant is also writing his name and we are really proud of him! Way to go little buddy!

Maddie is as sweet as ever and she has a sweet tooth (Below she just finished with her chocolate cookie dough facial). When she hears something getting unwrapped she comes over to me and begs. It's funny when she wants something that isn't food. This morning she heard me open the water filter wrapper and got really upset when I wouldn't let her eat it.




Maddie also loves to mimic Mommy. I put her in the sink and she dove into my make-up bag.

She is a very eager to fold her arms and bow her head when we pray. This is a shot of her folding her arms when she heard me say "Fold the laundry".

Flying Notions!

So I want to show off my wonderful mother-in-law's talent. Kathy (Chris's mom) is an amazing quilter and has taken her talents to Etsy!

Check out her shop: Flying Notions

Several months ago she started making these beautiful fabric birds and I was lucky enough to get one as a gift. If you have a moment, check out her shop. She's VERY careful with her work and only uses high quality fabrics. She'll be adding a variety of birds in upcoming days, so if you're interested, check back from time to time. Hooray for Kathy!
