Friday happenings

This morning I snapped a couple of the Treasures hard at work on their addition and subtraction.
They are a tad dark, it was very stormy and rainy this morning, but I liked them anyway.

We then had a snack of popcorn and skittles

Many times I think people think I am exaggerating when I say my monkey treasure can climb the fridge. This shows how determined she is. I had put the skittles on top and she was quite determined her bowl needed more. Because putting things high won't work, I am constantly hiding things and then I can't even remember where I hid them!

Sometimes I think she is just so cute I can't stop snapping pics. Seems kind of silly and snack doesn't really seem blog worthy but I love to look at her ;)

Have a great weekend everyone. I am not sure what our plan is yet. It might be to chilly to do another park this week. We will see...

Oh I wanted to share some books that the kids LOVE: Read aloud bible stories

There are 4 volumes and you can get them separately as well. I am just putting the link to all 4 so you can see them, or you can check them out at the library most likely. Our local library has them.

Sometimes I feel bible stories go way over childrens heads, but the way they are laid out in these books is wonderful. My kids are learning valuable lessons from every story and enjoying them.

  • Snack time is absolutely blogworthy:) We have a monkey too!! She gets everything no matter WHERE it is!! And no matter how we try to accomplish the out of reach--she finds a way!!!

  • Oh what sweet pictures! I just love seeing the precious moments that you capture with your darling little treasures!
    Thanks for sharing!

  • Oh what a sweet little monkey treasure! The fridge climbing pictures are classic. I am making sure Linzi is no where around to get any ideas, that is one she hasn't tried yet. :) She does climb the counters if she can get up there before I stop her.

    I love that you always remember to stop and enjoy the small moments with your treasures. They really are the ones that matter the most and anything that makes your cuties smile is definitely blogworthy!

  • Anything is Blog worthy right, LOL.
    I adore the phots as always, climbing the fridge is hilarious!!
    That's something Jill would do, funny and scary for Mom.

    By Blogger kerri, at February 23, 2008 at 7:03 AM  

  • I think Caitlyn and Lottie are somehow related!! I think skittles are worth climbing a fridge for..LOL

    I will check into those bible stories because I agree with you, I have had a hard time finding books that are on their level.

    I love all the pictures. I really love the one where Caitlyn is just sitting with her snack and holding her toes....so cute!

  • OMG! Your little monkey is climbing the refridgerator! I couldnt even do that! What a talented little girl....we love skittles at our house too!

    By Blogger Gracie, at February 23, 2008 at 10:33 AM  

  • Thank you so much for the comment on my blog! I had a great laugh over your little monkey scaling the refridgerator....I have one of those myself...although I haven't seen her try to climb the appliances (yet!)! :-)

    We have one of the volumes of Bible stories for Lia too...they are very nice!

    Your family is lovely...I will be back to visit!! :-)

  • I am on cuteness overload! I wouldn't be able to stop snapping pics either. Actually, I DON'T ever stop snapping 'em over here either. We can't help it if our kiddos are stinkin' adorable, right!?
    I LOOOOVE the picture of Caitlyn scaling the fridge - HILARIOUS! (she is talented!)
    Enjoy your (chilly) weekend.
    XO
    Oh, and I'll be checking those Bible stories out too - Lily has a devotional that she loves, but I'd love some more books!

  • Connie! The fridge pictures cracked me up! She is a hoot!

    By Blogger Nicole, at February 23, 2008 at 1:33 PM  

  • Oh my goodness. I cannot get over those fridge pictures...that is quite impressive. My Mia is not a climber at all, so seeing these are shocking!!! I love her face after she got the skittles. So cute. Lovely photos again as always!!!!

    By Blogger Lauren and Ed, at February 23, 2008 at 5:08 PM  

  • Gorgeous, as usual. Your days always make me smile.
    Too bad they don't make skittle covered veggies, huh?

    By Blogger redmaryjanes, at February 23, 2008 at 8:04 PM  

  • Ok...the fridge picture is HILARIOUS.....I can't believe it! I love taking pics too.....but now I am craving popcorn and skittles. Give me a heads up next time you post snack time pictures! *wink*

    By Blogger Steffie B., at February 23, 2008 at 8:47 PM  

  • Thanks for the link for the stories - We are always looking for more! We love to stop for snack time at our house too during school! Mid morning popcorn rocks! We also love reading about Jesus in the middle of arithmetic. We love bringing God back into school where He belongs:) Love the pics of the treasures!! I can't believe Monkey Treasure! Neither one of my boys could ever really climb because they have always been kinda big & heavy - not very limber!

  • I can't believe that little monkey climbing the fridge. I would be panic stricken!!!

    Great snack shots...So much fun.

    Thank you for the book recommendations. It is always appreciated...

    Hugs,
