SNOW, SNOW, and MORE SNOW!!

Well the day Kya has been praying for has finally arrived... our 1st Snow of the season! It started after Kya went to preschool and is just now starting to lighten up about 4 hours later. I picked the lucky girl up about 20min early from school. We got home, put Boston down for a nap and snuck out back for some fun.

Mia and Boston snuck out with Daddy this morning when it first started.

Donuts for Boston

Boston had his first donut the other day, and yes he ate the WHOLE thing!! I thought that was big enough to make the blog. We also had to take a pic of him in his "BOOB MAN" onesie that we got in a bag of clothes on craigslist ... what a find!

More Crafts

My Mom asked me for some craft ideas so here you go...

Turkey Hands- FrontBack
Construction Paper, scotch tape, pencil, scissors
Trace the hand, cut them out, cut out feathers, triangle beak, and what ever that dangly thing is. Place all the extras on the BACK of your Turkey and scotch Tape



Dragon Flys-
Construction Paper, Tacky Glue, Tape, Markers, Pom Poms, Eyes, Pipe Cleaners, Crate Paper
Cut out Body for Dragon Fly, Let the kids, color, glue whatever they want on the front, Make a loop of crate paper and cut down the center making the skinny wings and tape onto the back, I didn't have pipe cleaners but I would have taped those on the back for antennas Kya used rolled up crate paper.


Christmas Trees-
Foam Tree, Glitter Glue
I got the trees at Micheals for 49cents, you can find glitter glue at the dollar store and then just let em rip!

Quick Pratt Update

Well we've been sicker than sick, well except for Kya & Todd. Which kind of explains the delay in blogging. The latest and greatest new news would have to be that Boston has hit 14lbs4oz and no longer needs to be seen twice a wk. In fact they are giving us a month break since he gained 2 lbs in 2 wks! And our little Mia is officially POTTY TRAINED!!! We've had a full week of dry panties even for bed and including the road trip to Sheron , VT. Very Impressive Mia!!

Mimi's Trip

We've had so much fun with Mimi, it's hard to say goodbye! She's taken the girls to family center at both schools, done some shopping, babysitting, cleaning, laundry, walking the dogs, cooking, made play dough ... I think she's done it all! we've even made it up to Sheron VT to the Jospeh Smith Birthplace Monument. We also went to the Dewali Indian Celebration at the school. I wish I could have gotten pics of Mimi in the middle of the dance circle... yes that really happened! I've really enjoyed the break and getting to do some new things, like volunteer at Kya's school, and go to JIVE at Todd's school with him. Mimi thanks so much for everything... you will be missed!!!! Can't wait to see you next year when you bring G-pa out!

Halloween 2007

It's all done... no more Halloween. Halloween was such a busy day this year. Because of everything with Boston and our house being crazy we didn't get our pumpkins carved until Halloween right in time to light them up before trick or treating. Then we did a hefty walk up hill with the Cranes and the girls scored some major candy. When we got home the girls de-robed as usual and then started on their Haunted Gingerbread House. Even though it's my favorite holiday I have to admit things have quieted down since and it's been nice. A Big thanks to Mimi who helped make Halloween happen!
