We're obsessed with art projects! A friend sent me a link to this website www.notimeforflashcards.com
and I am seriously obsessed. This lady has such great art project ideas. As a mom my idea of art time has been to give Brooke a coloring book and a couple crayons and hope that will entertain her for a few minutes, and it usually doesn't. Anyways this site has a lot of really simple, fun art projects and activities. I was really surprised how much Brooke could actually do on her own and how excited she was to actually do a "real" art project. The other thing that I LOVE about this site is that she always lists childrens books to go along with the art project. I've also been surprised at how quick and simple these art projects are. We've really gotten into art this past week and have had a blast!
We're obsessed with Harry Potter! I've read all the Harry Potter books several times before, but after seeing the first movie I just never really got into the movies. Well my sweet husband FINALLY decided he would read the books and we've been busy reading the books and watching the movies as we go. It really has been funny to watch my husband, who is not exactly an avid reader zoom through these books.
We're obsessed with good deals! How cute are these pants (not to mention the adorable baby wearing them!)? $1.75 at Old Navy on clearance!
We're obsessed with yoga! I mentioned earlier that we got Brooke some yoga videos for her birthday. Well, she had been driving me nuts always wanting to do the one yoga video we had an extremely boring pregnancy yoga video that I thought we would get her some yoga kid videos and see what she thought. She loves them! She does them at least once a day. I think it is a great way for her to use some energy, especially when it is raining outside, and it is also a pretty good workout for me. So I know it is a little weird that our three year old does yoga, but she loves it, what are you going to do!
We're obsessed with summer fun! I'm so glad the weather has been so nice. We've been having a blast exploring the new parks in the area and going swimming with friends!
We're obsessed with rolling over! Owen has really gotten into this whole rolling thing, we can hardly keep track of him anymore. Brooke has been so proud of his new trick and likes to join him to show him how it is done!
We're obsessed (okay just I am) with hair. First of all, can I just say how happy I am that Brooke FINALLY has enough hair for ponytails. I just love it, I think she looks so cute and grown up. Also, Owen's hair is starting to grow back in, of course our son would have plenty of hair! Finally, I mentioned previously that I was concerned all of my hair was going to fall out after I had Owen, and I feel that I am well on my way. I sometimes have to forego the daily ponytail just to make sure that I still have hair it is falling out so rapidly. I keep thinking that I should just cut it short, but as hard as my hair is to grow I know once I cut it I'm not going to grow it out again, and I'm not ready to never have long hair again. So yesterday I broke down and got salon products (60% off) that are supposed to make your hair grown in thicker and stronger. So fingers crossed that I don't lose all my hair, as I really don't think I have the head shape for it! And if anyone has any tips for helping your hair to not all fall out let me know!
Anyways, thanks for bearing with us through this long post and here is to hoping you have fun things you can be obsessed with too!

so fun. I love your obessions. I lost sooooo much hair with Lexi. It is growing back now. So i have little pokies everywhere...but atleast it grew back. Love the art projects.
Bonnie you do so great -- all those art projects in a week! WOW, IMPRESSIVE! At least your obsession with hair doesn't mean Owen's has to be spiked and shippie Lou's in pigtails sticking out all over.
Cute post Bonnie! I'll have to check out the art project website... Emma is still a little young, but it won't be long. So excited for your HP movie to come out this summer! I've read them all, but love the movies too! Cute cute kiddos!
You've inspired me with the art projects. We do the same with the coloring books and I guess its about time I moved on.
Also on the yoga, I don't think its weird at all. Honestly, I think yoga poses are taken from children's movements: Carmen does down dogs all the time w/o knowing what it is.
Sorry about your hair. I lost A LOT with Carmen (but I can stand to lose it) but haven't noticed anything with Harry.
I'm going to have to check out that art project site. With school out this Friday I'm starting to freak out over the lack of things to do.
It looks like you guys are having a ton of fun! I'll have to ask you for that craft website once my little guy gets quite a bit older. Those crafts are dang cute! I love that Brooks into Yoga, I bet it's so funny to watch. :)
Darling pictures. I love the pants as well! I will have to check out your art project page!
