muffin tin monday swap

we participated in muffin tin monday swap.It was so much FUN! we had an awesome partner her name is deirdre or you might know her as "JDaniel4's Mom"

here is her wonderful blog about her adventures with her 2 year old son. in our swap package we got some silicone flower muffin cups, some teddy bear muffin cups. Julia thinks it is very funny to eat out of these which is awesome because she actually eats. We also got some really cute animal chopsticks which they have been having so much fun with. and also results in more eating from Julia which I am grateful for.

So thank you so much JDaniel4"s Mom!

Homeschool day full of Science

what a wonderful day it was. We met some of our other homeshooler friends there. First stop for rina and daddy was the new show at the planitarium. They say it was awesome. It makes me and Julia seasick and benjamin yeah were not going to go there. they would throw the poor toothy boy out even as cute as he is!they loved the scuba divers watching them.Katarina has been getting more outspoken she actually raised her hand to ask a question in this big crowd of homeschool kids. I could'nt believe it. We were so proud of her. rina loved the new t rex they have.
