I'm Baaaack

I haven’t been posting much at all here lately.  We stopped doing crafts for a little while because I couldn’t get Hailey to stop eating the paint and glue.  Then Hailey was sick with the croup.  And then we were out of town for Thanksgiving.  So, we haven’t been doing any crafts.  But, we are going to get back into our crafts tomorrow.  I am going to be scaling back on how much we do though.  I was planning so many crafts that we were doing several each day.  And while it is a lot of fun, it is also a lot of work to put everything together.  So, we won’t be doing quite as much, at least until Christmas is over.  Since I am usually a week behind in my posting, I’ll be sharing our crafts starting next week.

Before I go, I just have to share this with you.  My mom showed me this cute turkey that one of the students in her class brought in for a Thanksgiving treat.  I don’t think any explanation is necessary for how to make these.  So simple and incredibly cute!

Where Are All the Crafts?

Last week I posted that we had taken a week off and that’s why I didn’t have any crafts to share.  And I said I’d be back this week with more crafty posts.  So, where are they?

Well, part of last week we were out of town at my parents house.  Then Hailey was really sick.  Hailey loves to do crafts but she has been way too sick to do them.  She is finally starting to feel better today tbut we didn’t do any crafts again last week.

Now that she is starting to feel better we may do a few Thanksgiving crafts this week.  If we do I’ll share them as we do them.  But I’ll get back to my regular posting- letter of the week, numbers, shapes, colors and theme related crafts shortly.

Taking a Crafty Break

Last week Hailey and I took a little break from doing crafts.  We usually do at least one craft everyday but it was time for a little break.  Lately when we do anything involving paint or glue the only thing Hailey wants to do is eat the paint and glue.  She has always wanted to taste it now and then, but lately she doesn’t even want to do the projects because she wants to just eat our supplies.  So, we took last week off- and since my posting is one week behind our projects that means I don’t have any crafts to post about this week.  We are going to do a few things this week and see how it goes, so I should be back to posting my crafts next week.  In the mean time if anyone has any advice on how to stop toddlers from eating paint and glue- please share!

I'll Be Back

I know I haven’t been doing my usual posting.  We’ve been out of town for Hailey’s 2nd birthday.  I am going to take the rest of the week off from posting.  I’ll be back next week on Monday with all of my regular posts.  For now, stop by Livin’ With Me where I am still posting normally.  Also, if you missed my exciting announcement make sure to check out My Lips Are No Longer Sealed.
