We've mostly recovered from our illnesses...I think...and here are a few things we've been doing, trying to pass the time, stay busy, and not go crazy.
 |
| Maryn's beautiful penguin picture. Penguins are her favorite animal! |
 |
| Josiah's adorable penguin. He did a great job gluing and putting it together! |
 |
| We made "chocolate popcorn" which we will post on our cooking blog soon. |
 |
Maryn's coloring has really progressed. Notice how she colors things the "right" colors now,
as in she colored the outline of the wings all blue and the middles all yellow. I think it's pretty impressive, lol. |
Maryn's been such a great helper, and she's been more interested in reading and finding information. She loves "The Blue Fairy" book we got at the library, which is a collection of old fairy tales. A FANTASTIC read. I hope we can buy all the "Fairy" books someday.
Maryn also made a fairy house and is hoping she gets more fairy visitors. A fairy named Blossom even mailed us a letter to say she had visited and sent us a few pictures to color, like the one above. And some fairies have also left behind fairy dust. Hmmm....but we haven't actually seen any fairies yet.

| complete with fireplace, furnishings, curtains |

| Our living room today, after getting out some baby toys that were in "rotation." |
We also made hamburger buns, which wasn't all that much fun, but I just posted that on our cooking blog as well. :) Happy 2013, everyone.

Love the penguins and al the fun stuff you guys do. Your popcorn made me think of the movie "First Daughter" with Katie Holmes. I love that movie. In it where the guy shows her how to put chocolate candies in with her popcorn to melt. I love Maryn's fairy picture she colored..it is just beautiful!!!
I see Maryn and Josiah with all the baby toys,but the question is: is there a baby hiding in there somewhere? Love the penguins. Maryn's coloring always amazes me. She is so talented and I don't know anyone who can color for such long periods of time without a break.
Love, Aunt Cheryl
