A Rainy Week


Last week it rained a lot and I was sick, so that meant that the boys and I spent a lot of time indoors. Computers and TV are only entertaining for a little while, and heaven forbid the boys actually play with their own toys, so we had to come up with some new things to do. Logan found a bag of popcicle sticks in the craft drawer and decided he wanted to make puppets, so with a little hot glue (applied by myself of course) and some old scrapbooking cut outs, we made some pretty fun little puppets! They didn't need time to dry, so Logan got right to work, building a stage. He designed and decorated himself (although Lincoln was right there with him), and after it was ready we took turns putting on puppet shows. It was actually really fun. We're saving the puppets in an envelope so we can play with them again and again. I love inexpensive and easy fun!

Linc's Show


The favorite puppets (besides Stegosaurus)

Oh, and even though this has nothing to do with puppets, I guess it's safe to say that I am pregnant again. Crazy huh? We're well past the first trimester and will find out whether or not we're going to have a house full of boys in about a month. I think I'll put a poll up in a week or so to get everyone's preditctions. Oh, and I really don't like this picture, but it shows my little baby bump. Ah well.

Thanks for the comment and CONGRATULATIONS!! That's so funny because not two days ago I was thinking that it was about that time again...not for me...for you guys. You sure make cute boys (something we have in common) but maybe this time it will be a cute girl instead.

Wow! Congrats on the pregnancy. You are so skinny- I never would have guessed you were pregnant. They say the second trimester is supposedly the best one- so I wish you good health and energy in the weeks ahead. :) It looks like your boys had a lot of fun with the puppets. Oh- and I love the look of your blog. It is so cute!
