the beginning of our Christmas Month

Planting a green bean

cutting the milk carton to make a planter
shes got her bean

putting soil in the milk carton

putting our baby green bean in the soil

the planter has a see-through window so we can check the growth each day

we have been talking alot about the winter cold, and she was sad how our tomato garden died off, so we are going to try to grow some green beans in the house, she loves watching things grow!

our pretty raindrops

it has been raining off and on here, so I wanted the girls to make their own pretty raindrops. Katarina gets sad when it rains, but I have been trying to teach her rain is good, and can be beautiful.
