I don't do real well this time of year. The temps are starting to drop and I want to go into instant hibernation. I have put the electric blanket back on our bed and I have been pretty toasty in the evening. But I have kiddos and they won't let me stay in the bed all the time. I also have a space heater that I am really fond of. BUT, like I said I have kiddos and one in particular has just as much interest in my space heater as I do. I know, am I going to let a little guy boss me around?!?! Just one good shake of my hip I could bump him right out the room and reclaim my ownership of the beloved space heater. I could also share with him. I tell him to do that with his bro all the time but its just not the same, the heat doesn't distribute evenly and the other seems to be a little bit of abuse so all I have done is leave the room gracefully with a little growl at the back of my throat. My DH used to call me a cold blooded reptile. I was not real fond of that pet name and let him know that everytime he used it. I have a new name now and it is a little better than being called a lizard or snake. I am now known as a cat cause the cat loves the electric blanket as much as I do. The blanket has also caused some problems last year and I think I have now mastered the controls and I won't get myself into too much trouble.
Another thing that has suffered was my motivation. I have not been taking pictures or even posting old pictures. Sorry about that and you can thank my sweet adorable friend who I think loves to give me a swift kick in the butt when she has to look at a post far too long. Not too mention, she can be just as bad as myself! Love ya girl!!! :P
Before it was too crisp outside I had the idea of making the boys some tin can stilts and they seemed to really enjoy them. My big boy really took off on them but the baby wasn't too interested. He would step on them and not move. Forget even bending his legs a little and pulling on the strings on his own. But it still turned out as a success and it was real cheap entertainment. I was a goof and sliced my finger on the inside of the can when I was cleaning it. It was all still free. Just a little blood on my part and no hospital visit. Yeah!!!!

Are you talkin 'bout me? Are YOU talkin 'bout ME!?!? hahahahaha Muuuuah!
That is such a cool idea. I remember making the can stilts when I was a kid. Have never thought about it with my kids. They get a big kick out of it. TFS.
Oh yeah...today it's actually *gasp* 53 degrees!!! Yaaay. Now it's time for sweat shirts and flip flops! lolololol
neat! hope the cut heals fast though, and you get a good heating solution working.
Hey Sis,
These are cool I have to make some for Cody for Cubscouts.
