A Day Full of Fun!

First thing this morning Atreyu and I called Grammie and sang "Happy Birthday" to her.  It's one of Atreyu's favorite songs and he sings it really well.  Grammie loved it!

Atreyu likes to watch this cartoon on PBS (I think) that's called Sid the Science Kid.  On the show they do fun experiments.  I decided that I want to do more fun things with my kids.  I found some good ideas on Pinterest and decided to try some of them out.  The first thing we did this morning was to put some water, food coloring, and dish soap in a 9x13 pan.  I put it on the table and gave Atreyu a straw so he could blow bubbles.  He seemed to have a lot of fun doing it except for the few times that he sucked on the straw instead of blowing on it.  I then gave him some spoons and a spatula and he made a cake.  It was a fun activity for an inside day.


After his "cake making" I painted the bottom of the kids' feet and made "carrots" for Easter.  They both wiggled alot but I think they still turned out pretty cute.  I think I might start doing this every year.

Since Atreyu had paint on him I figured it would be a good time for a bath.  I saw this idea for a "hot chocolate" bath and he said he wanted one.  I put a little hot cocoa mix in the water, sprayed some whipped cream on the walls to look like steam, blew up some white balloons for marshmallows and then made some hot chocolate paint with whipped cream and hot cocoa mix.  I think Atreyu had fun since he was in the tub for probably close to an hour.
We then made a little sign for Uncle Chris because he is being sent overseas again and we wanted to thank him for all his service to our country.
Lastly, Cambria is 33 weeks old today so here is her weekly picture.  She's a doll!
