Painting: We bought some paint at Walmart and a set of brushes at a tool store for minimal expense. I set the girls up with pieces of multi-media paper taped to the shower wall and with paint in egg cartons. It works really well and cleanup is a breeze since the paint is water soluble.
We made a great recipe of No-Bake Healthy Snack Balls. Ingredients were: one cup oatmeal, 1/3 c. Honey, 1/2 c. Peanut butter, 1tsp. Vanilla extract, 2/3 c. Coconut flakes, and 1/2 c. Ground flaxseed. Mix in stand mixer until well combined and form into balls.
Both girls learned how to ride their bicycles without training wheels. This was a big step as they were both afraid of falling and had tried to talk their way out of learning for quite a while. Once they finally tried, it was no time before they were peddling all over!
We've also been taking Karate as a family. We're really enjoying learning martial arts and the time we get to spend with the others in class is a big plus. We already knew most of the people there but have enjoyed getting to meet the others.
More updates and hopefully a better job keeping updated soon!
