Easter Chicks!

I saw this great idea on my Facebook page yesterday from Mamas Like Me and knew that we just had to do this fun project for Easter. Now to be truthful Monkey has no idea what chicks have to do with Easter and we really didn't talk about it as I want him to understand the true Biblical reason behind it but it was still so much fun!

First, I cut out all the shapes and placed them on little paper plates. Then we made an example together so he could make more by himself. Monkey loves making crafts and I knew that he would be making many of them.
After brother woke up from his nap we set up all his things on his craft table in the corner of his room. It looks a little crowded but he loves working here and it's all the space we currently have for him. 
He set right to work with Goose and I watching making his first chicken. And he did great with very little instruction from me. 

Look at the proud face! 
That just has to melt your heart seeing him so proud that he accomplished making his very own chicken!
It was so fun to watch him work on this project! And by the end of the day he had made at least four of them. It might have been more!
Hope you can enjoy making it this Easter season as well!

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
