#39 New Microwave plate is on the way

A year and a half later I finally sucked up the expense and bought a new microwave plate. It should be here Friday. Odds are now our microwave will die on Saturday.

#62 - August Crafts


Expanding on Macy's love of beading, we covered pasta noodles with glitter and made a necklace.

#62 - July Crafts




To help Macy learn her alphabet we used pipe cleaners to make each letter. I was suprised by the number of letters she could make and identify.

Inspired by Dora's World Adventure which is about giving friendship bracelets out, we made bracelets with beads.

It was a hot day and we didn't know what to do with the girls, so using pipe cleaners we made fish and fishing rods for them to go fishing. This has led to a new goal, 101 uses for pipe cleaners.
