APPLE PICKING

We were invited to go apple picking today in the country. We do this annually with a group of friends. And since this week coming will be our last week of Apple related activities,I thought this was the perfect opportunity to take a trip to the country.
Jada kept saying "Apple" and picking every apple in sight. She is so sweet and she makes us laugh all the time. We saw some baby cows and she tried to climb in the pen with them and shouted "mooooooooooo". There was so much to do. We did a corn maze, tractor ride, tire climb, slides, pumpkin picking and cows and apple picking of course. There are so many great pics i wanted to add but it would take me all night to sort them. So I made a collage instead:)You can click on the collage to open a new window so you can see the individual pictures better.
We plan to make a huge batch of applesauce (some to freeze) this week with our daycare friends

Jada Roo at Tot school

So after Reading lots and lots of inspirational blogs I finally got some materials together to start doing activities with Jada and her little friends. Here is just some of the things we have been doing in the past 2 weeks

Cotton ball (pom-pom)transfer

Look at that hand control! Jada is 25 months old

She loved this activity so much she didn't want to share with her friends. I am happy that she is so excited about the activities but we need to work on her sharing skills.

Tong transfer. I collected the cones from our last trip to Alberta. Jada loved this activity and sat for at least 20 min!!
I will try my very best to start doing a play dough and activity tray that will go with our themes, seasons and holidays.



Look at how happy she is:)



Art activity: Apple prints

Jada Roo Turned 2

It was a beautiful day to have a little girls birthday party outside. My beautiful baby girl is 2!!!! I just can't believe it. Here's to many, many more little Roo!

Halloween is a comin

Yup one of my favorite hoilidays is a comin. I have a zillion pics saved to my computer from years of searching and borrowing pics from the net. Here is a pic of the skelleton that I used for inspiration (no idea where I found the pic) when I made mine. I will update when I dig it out and put it up I PROMISE.

Long Time Eh?

Been busy but not busy crafting. More like busy travelling. I'm tired and need a really good dose of home and cleaning and organizing. To kick off our organizing we bought a really rustic dresser to store and organize our stuff. We bought it off Kijiji for $45 and we are working on painting it white.
What do you think? It's hard wood and very heavy!
FYI Hubby loves to paint on our back lawn and makes crazy designs that make the neighbors ask what is wrong with our grass. Sigh............
Will post pics when it is completed:)

Jada Roo has a special message

How cool is this?

All you need is a plastic cup , a picture of your child making funny faces, soil and grass seed. I found this on a kids craft facebook group so i can't take any credit. I am going to try this with my daycare group this afternoon!
