First soccer cheerleader!
I made Brooklyn this little dress to wear to Logan's soccer games. It's green like his uniform. I would like to add a pocket that either says "Dragons" or has a picture on it. We'll see how creative I can get with it.
The back comes complete with a number 6, which is Logan's number of course!

Fun things for kids to eat
Let me start by saying that is not a picture of something I made, rather a picture I found and am going to make. Some kids will eat anything, mine are not those kids. It's a battle to get my kids to eat much more than a few items, McDonald's being in the top 10! So I am constantly looking for ideas to make foods fun. Today I tried the lady bug apples. They were a hit with Logan. He said "Mommy I do like apples" and ate the whole thing. So I found a few more recipes, one is the above pictured and another was blue jello cups with gummy fish in them. I want to find healthy snacks though, so if anyone has a fun healthy snack tip let me know! I have done the different snacks in the cupcake tin, that was fun, but they still only picked around the stuff they liked. So any suggestions? BTW- I can't wait to get my family fun mag cuz it has a ton of great food tips!

What Have I been up To?
Well I painted a wall in the family room a pretty light blue and painted the kids bathroom. I love the changes I made. Sometimes a little paint makes a huge difference. It really brought out the colors I have accenting the house. The kids bath was so blah. I wanted a brighter room and always want to use yellow, so why not? And we had chocolate pizza which was a huge hit! And easy to make. Got it off that Flip Flop applesauce blog.

First Soccer Game Ever!
Today was Logan's first soccer game ever! I have to start off first by saying that I am so proud of him. He was such a great player! He wanted to play the whole time, even when he had to sit out he wanted in. And the whole time he kept with the ball trying to score. At this age they don't keep score, but let me say we got KILLED by the other team. There were some big kids out there! I wanted to ask for birth certificates ha ha. But more than anything I'm glad he liked it and I hope he continues to have an interest to play. Rick took some great pictures with his fancy camera, I'll post those later. For now here's a bit of an action shot =-)
