Almost Famous

Last month Hannah, Amelia, and I made the trek into town to attend Story Time at the Wellsboro Green Free Library.  Story Time is something that we look forward to all week.  Its a chance to restock our pre-bed/nap time books, get out of the house, play with other children, and socialize with  other moms.  This week was a bit different.

Sara, from the Wellsboro Home Page, an online local news group that seeks to highlight the positive news in our community.  Sara explained that they were doing a piece on Story Time and asked permission to us footage of us.  I agreed, very thankful that everyone had clean faces and semi-brushed hair!

February in Photos: Part 1



February has been a cold month for us here in PA.  A few mornings ago my thermometer registered -20!  Brr!  I love end of the month reviews.  Here is what we were up to in February.

Amelia loves her tongue!

This is seriously bigger then some of the apartments I've lived in!

Amelia had a fun time with the mirrors and pretending to be an only child for the weekend.



That preacher went a long time, again.

Ready for sweet dreams.

After weeks of snow limiting our outside play, cabin fever has set in.  What's a mom of two to do?  Head to Pinterest of course!

I introduced Hannah to the wonders of Pinterest.  We looked up a few things, and settled on making Bouncy Balls.  I had no idea that you could make such things, and out of so few ingredients.  We both enjoyed the process.


It wasn't too messy and the process was easy.  The first batch I added a bit too much corn starch, but other then that things went smoothly. Next time I will look up recipes for "gack", which is a slimier version of what we made. Hannah kept trying to treat the "balls" like play dough and had more fun breaking them into small pieces then smoothing it into an actual ball.
