Crafty little people.

Jason worked a double today, those are long days home with the kiddos for Momma. We spent half the day doing a couple crafts, then watched a movie. Now that the soggy weather has arrived we need to get everyone some new rain coats and boots so we can get outside even when it's a bit wet.
Jericho...this kid is a total ham for the camera, he smiles as soon as he sees it :)


The card table we borrowed for extra Bday seating is going to be missed, the triplets think it is their table LOL.


The kids had fun making a finger print corn craft and a cute squirrel craft too.

Painting...

They had already painted their corn yellow...I pulled out the blow dryer to dry them quickly so we could move on to the fingerprint part.

Dot dot dot...they still need to figure out that the dots are supposed to be all over their paper and not in one huge glob hehehe.

Jericho got to do a baby sized corn craft, with some help :)




While the corn crafts were drying we moved on to the squirrels. They are getting pretty good with a paint brush :)




I am so impatient, I gave them some cotton balls to paint with to keep them busy while I dried the squirrels with the blow dryer hahaha.


Then we added some cotten ball bits to the squirrel tails.

Look how happy they are with their crafts...they are getting so grown up.




All done!



Washing up...all at once, hot plans for Ratatouille after. All we hear is that "he cooks in the kitchen" though Lily also refers to Gusteau's restaurant as the "recipe house" LOL.


See what I mean...one second he is crying, the next he sees the camera and is all smiles :)

Time for some Fall crafts!

Before we get to the crafts I have to share these pics.
It has been getting chilly some nights so we broke out the kiddos sleepers. My almost 9 month old is wearing a 12mo sleeper that used to be his brothers, and the 3 three year olds are in 4t sleepers. My big kids! I miss footy pj's, they just look so comfy and warm :)


Acting silly LOL.


Here is a flashback...Xander at 14 months in the same sleeper :)


OK craft fun! Fall is here, time to get the spring stuff replaced with all things leafy :)

painting their leafs.

We also did these great hand print trees with finger print leaves. Pinterest has so many fun ideas!

The finished products.

Another Pinterest gem...our family tree :)


Jericho is a busy boy, he can now use his walker toys all over the house...since he has figured out how to turn them so he can go in any direction.


Jason has already tried to kill his anniversary bonsai, hopefully we can nurse the poor thing back to health.


It has been raining off and on now, so our once daily walks are now hit and miss. Today was a beautiful day to go for a walk though, and everyone had fun wearing their shades.


It is seriously impossible to get them all looking at the camera at one time grrr.



Still working on going hands free...in such a hurry Jericho.

The ending to a great day...the trio got to try their first peanut covered carmel apples, they were a hit LOL.
