DPP//25 Merry Christmas!

I hope you all had a very wonderful and Merry Christmas spending time with family, friends, and loved ones. We had a great weekend and to top it off Stefan still has two more days off before another three-day weekend next week.
Here is a picture of Lukka's "Jesse Tree"; learning the story of Jesus starting with Adam and Eve. We did it every day throughout the month of December leading up to the 25th. I also enjoyed sharing a (mostly) daily photo with you all, too.
I will be back with a post right before the New Year recapping the Mast's 2010, see you then!

P.S. No, Lukka and I did not make the craft. The wonderful leadership team of a local Mom's group did and gave them to us 2 years ago.

Hi Sarah! The Caden is sleeping well. We may be turning his crib into a toddler bed next month. Any tips for that? Baylor is still waking but she talks to herself and goes back to sleep. I think it is the teeth. Thanks so much for all the tips!

How To: DIY Sand/Water Table

How To: Build A Sand/Water Table for Under $30 ! Sorry this took me so long to blog, but I had to have a tool list and full instructions before I could do so. A little history on my love for the sand/water table . I love the idea behind tools for tiny hands, i.e. the Montessori Method , and like to have Lukka 'figure things out for himself', even when he is playing. I try to have the most simple and basic toys available for 3 reasons: a) simple toys generally have less parts, which means less of a hassle for me b) simple toys inspire way more creativity and imagination than do 'exact replica' toys c) they are much more aesthetically pleasing to look at, therefore, not making every nook and cranny of our house an eyesore! I know the last reason is just for me, but it's true. Plastic things don't generally last 1/2 as long as wooden or fabric toys, and they are unattractive. For this reason, I started to look for a wooden sand/water table as opposed to a pl...

We've Gone and Done It

We are in the midst of packing up, and moving. Not just any move, but The Move we've been trying to accomplish for years now. We're heading up to (Washington) Canada. In the last couple of months Stefan had been talking to a potential employer up in Richmond, British Columbia , and after a very swift interview process they offered him the job. Small and large details aside, he accepted and plans to start on February 25th. We leave one week earlier, on the 18th. That's literally just over 2 weeks from when you will read this. We told family and close friends first, and while we haven't been keeping it a huge secret, our church, as a whole, did not know until last night because it was then we could tell everyone at our seasonal congregational meeting what our plans were in person, and with many of them all at once. I didn't want to say anything online until that happened. We've been steadily spending heaps of time with friends and family, all while slowly p...

{This Moment}

A portrait of his sister. From Soulemama's blog : A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
