Kitchen Time

0045

This week I’ve been baking desserts, muffins, and biscuits non-stop. I whipped up a big batch of Zucchini Muffins (thanks to my mom’s Farmer’s Market buy), and they were really tasty. Dylan even liked them, but Thade wouldn’t give them a try. I really liked the green specks of Zucchini in the muffins, and it is a good way to sneak in some veggies too.

Vacation Bible School starts next week. I have volunteered to make 15 dozen cookies, and I can’t wait to get started. Our Church uses about 70 dozen cookies a day for all of the kiddos, and Thade can’t wait to go. I think I’ll spend tomorrow in the kitchen and get the cookies done and delivered by Sunday.

First I had better go and get to all of the dishes, and then the fun part of cookie making.

New Beds

Last night we were upstairs working on the boy’s room. We had picked-up a new to us bed for Dylan, but Thade ended up with it. Dylan was really happy with Thade’s hand-me-over bed, and he even slept through the entire night in his big boy bed. Thade slept better too in his new bed. Now we just need to take apart the crib and reassemble it in the nursery, and I really need to work on pairing down the boy’s room and closet too. Who knew two little guy’s could have so much stuff…

James also brought home a wallpaper steamer so he can get to work on removing the wallpaper in the nursery. I can’t wait! Then the pretty pink paint gets to go up! Maybe I should get to work on cleaning out that and room and closet too.

One More Thing To Check of the List

We are one step closer to Kindergarten, we’ve got the school supply shopping done. Thade also has his lunch-box and backpack ready to go to school. I’m still not ready though…

Going To Nana’s

Yesterday the kiddos and I headed to Nana’s house to spend the day with her. James got a day off, and enjoyed some much needed peace and quiet. The kiddos and I had a blast though, we shopped all day, had lunch at Ryan’s and even saw a local band play at the library.
