art!

 im really working on spending more time making art with the kids.  now that joey is older, its much easier and less mess to clean up. ive been curbing the projects to include nate.  and he's joined us for a lot of them.  tues is poured rain all day, so we made art.  mosaic names

 they worked with no help from me

 i liked watching them choose their colors

 ha

 joey was tired i guess

 nate spent the week with his friends making cardboard weapons after school.  it took 2 rolls of packing tape 2.50 cost BUT it gave me 3 afternoons of busy boys working together with no fights! score! ha

 then they made houses and hearts

 finished project

 and then we made a bunny

joey was so excited when chris came home from work, she ran out yelling "daddy! my name!"  joey impressed me by writing her name on the white board. i didnt get a pic, she erased it before i could!
