Earth Day

Yesterday was Earth Day. We made coffee filter earths. All you need are filters, markers and a spray bottle with water. My hands still have blue stains on them today. :)

Still not a fan of the Easter bunny!

Ever have one of those days that doesn't quite go according to plan?

Nick is a chicken around dressed up things (eg. Santa, Easter Bunny, Unkle Hans etc). Dan and I prepped him that the Easter bunny was visiting his daycare today and he seemed excited. I took him to school and while he played outside for a little while, I packed up my file cabinet in my classroom. Suddenly I heard MAJOR crying. You can always tell when your own child is crying. Well Nick managed to get his finger pinched in the door. The heavy, exterior door. The poor kid will likely lose the nail. As this trauma was happening, the Easter bunny came to say hi. Yeah he wasn't impressed. 

And here is last year's photo for another chuckle.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! We had a very quiet and lovely weekend. I'm not used to staying home on holidays but given that I'm in the bathroom every hour to pee these days I was glad to be home. 4 more weeks of work and 6 more weeks (in theory) until we meet our newest addition!

TP roll bunnies

Easter is on it's way! These cute little bunnies were so easy and simple to make. 

Step 1: Paint TP rolls a nice bright pink
Step 2: Let them dry over night
Step 3: Cut the tubes in half
Step 4: I had the triangles pre-cut for the ears and then the kids shaded them in a bit with a pink crayon
Step 5: Assemble together with hot glue
Step 6: Use cotton balls for the tails
Step 7: Have the kids draw faces using a permanent fine tip marker

Hoppy little bunnies!

I fell victim to cute packaging

I went to Walmart today to get some stuff for work and I couldn't resist bringing home this festive kleenex box. The kleenex comes out in two spots like ears. EEK! How cute is that?! It was only $1.77...

18 months vs 2.5 years

Late February is the time for picture day at Nick's daycare. Look at the difference a year makes.
