Latest Activities

Halloween crafts have been quite a hit lately, but I keep forgetting to take pictures.  We have done lots of stamping, painting, baking and decorating for Halloween . . . oh, and we have spent a lot of time in our costumes.  Here's a hint - these little guys are fighting some serious crime around here!  Tonight's activity was a glue ghost covered in marshmallows.  Lincoln struggled with not eating the marshmallows, but he loved his craft ghost!
All done and pleased with his work!
Beau was not interested in tonight's activity, so he helped me prepare Linc's lunchbox.  He was a cheerful little helper, as long as he got to sample the food!
What a cute little lunch Lincoln will have!  Cheese squares, turkey on a toothpick, Ritz crackers, apple slices and a bonus cereal bar to sweeten the deal!  He's totally excited to take a break from sandwiches, wraps and pitas . . . hey, we gotta keep it fresh!
Everyone has been in (mostly) good spirits for the last few days, the boys have been having a blast at school, and we've spent a lot of time having fun.  We are really enjoying the cooler weather and lots of fall activities!  Lincoln and Beau have also been extremely generous with kisses and hugs these last few days, and that makes my heart happy!  I love love love the sweetness, and I know that it is not forever.  They'll get into their share of spats . . . probably tomorrow!  Daddy and I have really been talking to Lincoln lately about love.  You can be upset with Mommy or Daddy or Beau when something happens that you don't like, but we always love each other.  I think it is sinking in slowly, and we'll keep repeating it.  I love these guys so much, and we all need to remember just how important we are to each other!
