Ikea!

We woke up to rain, there was a small break and we took our morning walk and jumped in puddles.

Jared is out of school for semester break, so we went to pick up some stuff we've been needing.
Emers kept knocking my easel over trying to paint like liv. So we bought some easels from ikea. $15!!! A steal.





Rockstar Ira!





She laid flowers for us on our seats. We were instructed to throw them at her feet when she was done.











Then we celebrated with hot cocoa.

Friday

New ornaments...











Family that draws together.....





RAIN!!!!


Ira and I threaded two bags of cranberries. Took FOREVER, but much healthier and better for the earth than the plastic stuff at target!





Jared thinks it makes an awesome necklace.


Ira and liv then made this totally plastic and foam fake garland from a kit from target.... Ya know, to offset my cranberries.








Then they hung it up in the playroom...

Thursday!

Faerie farm play...


Ira drew this picture of her and liv...


We read some library books... We fell in love with this one!

It's all hand sewn hand dyed wool and wooden figures/collections from nature. So precious. Going on the "to acquire" list!








Took a night stroll around town....

Leaves!

We are putting our library cards to work!!! Three trips to library in one week!


Lego truck building...


Walks...long walks. Emers and Liv are hilarious in the stroller together. Emers is just now getting to the point where I can take him out of the carrier for longer periods.


We found a huge pile of leaves..





This look is priceless.


They also found a new friend. They ended up playing with him for a while in the leaves.





This is ira's silly walkin' face.


An this is why I usually bring out the triple stroller for long walks. Eventually Ira gets tired.


Liv fed Emers her sauerkraut. My babies love their fermented foods!

Crafting in this tiny apartment is messy....





Starbucks and a night walk!
