soccer 2012

The Love of My Life helped with rec soccer again this spring and both Gus and Handsome decided to participate. They had fun, the last game and awards were a little chilly but,they were still more then willing to pose for a few pictures.  

dirty handsome

I am pretty sure handsome is going to need a bath a day from now on. He typically takes a bath 3 times a week but oh my he is becoming quite stinky lately. It's like he has a perpetual layer of dirt covering his body. I'm sure this is just a boy thing, but it's getting a little out of control here. It's not something that a simple was your face and hands can cure unless his hands go all the way up his arms and his face includes his hair and neck. oh the joys of boys.

My favorite part of bath night this last week however happened Monday when he was in the tub he had been in there for quite sometime so I went to check if he was okay, he was great with his book in the tub.

Do not touch her Corn on the Cob

 TayBug LOVES Corn on the Cob!! tonight at dinner she would not let it go even to eat the rest of her food, she held it in one hand with a death grip and drank, or ate with the other.

from one to another

So for the last two years I've been working in Relief Society (an organization within the LDS church for women 18 and older) It's been an adventure planning activities, cooking class, and serving the sisters. However this adventure as come to an end and now on to the REAL fun. I have been asked to serve in the nursery. Eight precious toddlers ranging in age from 15 months to just over 3 years old.

I have been doing lots of research and found several fun sites with great ideas to use in nursery or with my own children, to keep the kiddos learning, entertained and me sane.

Just in case anyone reading this could use those sites I'll list a few of them here.
