MTM

It's a day late, but we did our MTM anyway. I was glad to see that it was a no theme MTM. I started out without a theme, but the boys decided they wanted to do a theme anyway. They really like the classic Disney Robin Hood movie...so that is what they wanted their theme to be. So, here is what we did:


(sorry about the picture...my camera is broken, so my phone will have to do)
top row: cheese arrow, watermelon crown, sandwich coins (tuna or pb&j)
bottom row: dorito & raisin robin hoods hat (it is a stretch, but Kaden really wanted the hat), yogurt jail, & more sandwich coins

SLACKER!!!

I feel like such a slacker. Two weeks in a row of no MTM. Maybe tomorrow!!!! We are finally back in Utah. We drove for 14 hours yesterday, but we made it home safely. What a crazy day. I woke up to Preston crying because his eyes were sealed shut...gotta love pink eye! We had to go to the Dr. today. They think that Kaden has a chronic sinus infection. The poor boy ALWAYS has a cough & sometimes he coughs so hard that he throws up! Then, it was off to do BIRTHDAY shopping! My little Preston is going to turn 3 on Wednesday. I can't believe it. We do finally have food in our house...so we'll see what I can come up with tomorrow.

Once I get my house back in order...I have some fun projects coming up. Stay tuned!

Another indoor craft...

I really love Joann's craft section...especially their dollar section! I let the boys pick out a necklace to make from Joann's. They had some really cute pirate ones, but my boys both went for animals. Preston wouldn't let me take a picture of his...but here is Kaden's:



I will tell you that the round beads were big & had a big hole to feed the thread through. My 2 year old was able to thread those through really easy. The animal beads on the other hand were a different story. Each bead pack came with 3 decorative beads...the holes were hard to find & 1 of Kaden's wouldn't even work. He didn't seem to mind!

Pocket Monsters

We are still in Arizona & as I said before...the kids are sick. Kaden has pink eye/the flu & Preston has a stuffy nose (which is how Kaden started). We have been trapped in the house for days. No swimming, lizard hunting, or shopping for us!!! Luckily, I made a stop at Joann's a few days ago for some inside projects. This morning we decided to make one of the projects. They would be pretty easy to sew yourself, but I just bought a kit for each of the boys.



They came unstuffed & the boys got to stuff their "pocket monster" all by themselves. Each kit came with felt shapes that were already sticky. The boys had fun decorating their "pocket monster".

No MTM yet...

I was really hoping that Kaden would be feeling better....but no luck. The poor little guys is living on Jello & Special Daddy Juice (AKA Gaterade). We can't break his dang fever & he keeps throwing up. I feel so bad for the little guy! So, in order to save him from feeling even worse...I am still not going to do MTM. The little guy is missing out on so much all ready...I don't want to make him miss any more!

MTM-postponed until tomorrow..

Kaden came down with the flu yesterday, but he is feeling better today. He loves MTM so much that I decided to postpone it until tomorrow. I would rather have it be on Tuesday than have him miss something that he loves! Check back tomorrow after lunch!

MTM-Letters

Today was MTM!!! I almost forgot, but Kaden was sure to remind me that he was looking forward to MTM. My Grandma (Grammy) was admitted to the hospital last week & is in critical condition. Last week we made the long 14 hour trek to be by her side & my head has been a bit jumbled since. She is doing better, but still not out of the woods. I am so glad that Kaden reminded me...they really do love Muffin Tin Monday!!! Check out all of the other Muffin Tin Monday Mamas here. Here is what we ate (I bought race car liners so it was even more fun!):
