Daddy Daughter Date

Last night Tom took Sarah out on a Daddy daughter date. She didn't know they were going until after school when he told her. I was at a presidency meeting yesterday afternoon, and when I came home she was dancing all around the house with a huge smile on her face because she was "going to dinner with daddy!!" She was so happy she was floating. Tom had made dinner for the other kids while I was at the meeting, and they were just waiting for me to come back so that they could go out. After they went to dinner, he took her to Chuck E Cheeses-her favorite place-, and they played games together. She came home happier than I think I've ever seen her. Sarah is such a little grumpy girl so often, and that was so good for her.

Popcorn Trees!!

It's spring time and everything is blooming and and blossoming. We see

"popcorn trees" everywhere we look, so today Kaitlyn and the little girl I babysit made their own popcorn trees.

We got out the air popper, and made some plain popcorn. While it was popping, the top of the popper got bumped off, and the girls both screamed. I left it off because they were having so much fun watching it pop around the room.

Then we got out a tub of pink frosting, and I added some powdered sugar to make it thicker and more "glue-like". I got out my 11x17 paper and mounted it on some cardboard since the frosting glue was heavy. Then I drew a simpple tree, and let them cover it with frosting and popcorn!!


Singing to Baby
Sarah and Kaitlyn love to play with their baby brother. This morning they were singing "Where is thumbkin?" He was smiling and laughing as they did.

Four Month Faces


William is already 4-months old!!
I wonder what he is thinking in some of these?



Bunny Tea Party

Kaitlyn got a mini tea set in her Easter basket, and immediately started playing with it. She went and found Sarah's little stuffed bunnies, and set up the party. She used water and jelly beans for the festive feast.
