Love

Charlotte has never been one to sit still for very long and work on a project. But for some reason she really loves this bead project where you have to (very carefully) place each bead on a small spot on this plastic heart and then iron them on when you're done. I'm so proud.

 For one of our activity time crafts, we made these cute hand warmers. 
Two are for the girls and one is for Gram. They are filled with rice so you can just pop it in the microwave.

 I'm in charge of our Valentine's Day party for Joy School, so these are the BINGO cards Hazel helped me make for our party.Photobucket
Lately Ms. Eloise is awake during my "quiet time" while the older girls are napping. My daily task is dishes, so I've been putting her into one (clean) side of the sink with some spoons and cups while I wash my dishes in the other side. She is very fun company. I started doing this because she used to play around my ankles and start emptying all the silverware out of the dishwasher. 
This kept both of us happy.

Stop growing, Eloise. I love that baby face so much.

It just makes me laugh to know that this picture was taken on a Thursday. Thursdays are the worst day. I can't figure out why but it is a very consistent truth in my life right now. I need to start setting up my budget so that I can pack up the girls and go shopping every Thursday. But then again, that might be worse...
So the story behind these pictures is that our living room had been messy all week. Even all of the puzzles had been pulled out and spilled across the floor. I finally couldn't handle it and did NOT have the energy to do it right, so I shoved everything into this corner of our room. Puzzles, books, cards, keyboard, barbie gear, toys, etc.

David was at a church meeting while I worked on this, so when he came home he started to say, "Wow! This place is..." and then he saw the corner. Ha. The funny thing is, I even vacuumed out the couches and cleared off our entertainment center. Everything but that corner was in perfect condition.

Happy first week of February.
