So I don’t really push my son to learn to read or anything of that sort. He’s young and I know he’ll learn. But today he learned a few letters because he kept asking me to draw for him and I ran out of ideas. So I wrote a “k” for Keagan. He picked up [...]

So I thought I would sort of “review” some of Keagan’s Christmas gifts.
He got the “Blue Moo” CD by Sandra Boynton from my mom. Keagan LOVES music, and I want to make sure he has some music time every day, so this was a great gift. We played it today for the first time. A [...]

So what do you think of the new banner? Hubby made it for me last night. I like

Well I can’t believe that 2008 is coming to a close. It’s shocking really.
A lot has happened this year. When the year started, we were so afraid of having another baby after Keagan’s traumatic birth that we thought we’d never have one. We thought we’d probably have the husband get the “big v” and think [...]
Gross

So we cloth diaper about 50% of the time. I want to do it all the time, but sometimes the disposables are so darn tempting. We’ve been on a really bad sposie kick – I was so busy getting ready for Christmas, we’ve had a ton of snow and I feared power outages(and this the [...]
New Name- Same Blog

So I changed the name of my blog. “Mummy Apples” came from Keagan’s word for “Yummy” and his love for apples. Cute and all, but I keep getting blog hits from people looking for ways to mumify apples. I also thought that I should include both kids in the title, even if Eden is still [...]
Christmas with a Toddler

Keagan’s second out-of womb Christmas was nice. He woke up in a sweet and cheerful mood. I made him breakfast and he ate it in bed with Papa while I got everything ready in the living room. Then I read him two board books about the real meaning of Christmas and we went into the [...]
Fingerpainting for Christmas

Keagan made some finger paintings for family members this Christmas. After he painted them, we traced his little handprint on them. They came out quite cute, but I think the process may have been even more cute!
Unfortunatly, I forgot to take a photo of a finished handprint fingerpainting before I gave them all away. [...]
Snow baby

Keagan decided to like the snow today. Which is good because we hve a LOT of it and it is still coming down.
Crafting in the snow…

We’re under a huge blanket of snow right now. Maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe it will make me finish my Christmas crafting. I sure as heck can’t get out of here for a few days. The news predicted something much worse than this (don’t they always?) so I relieved that there’s less than a [...]
