What happens when you give hammers to children. - ANSWERED



Earlier in the week I asked if anyone could tell what was going on in the first picture. There were lots of good guesses, but nobody hit the nail on the head. The kids weren't hitting nails either...they were continuing the tradition that I linked to in this post last year. Here is the demo from this year:

    I know what is going on but I had a hint the other day when I was at your house so I will not play along with the contest. I just want to say that the kids really look forward to doing this.

    I was going to guess chalk or charcoal. :) both have been guessed already. hmmm... maybe marshmallows but they wouldn't have dust like that... whatever it is, I'm SURE they are having fun!

    My guess is either hammering away on limestone or a salt block...some type of mineral block maybe. Looks like fun no matter what it is!

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able.

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on.....

Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses !

In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d...
