Today Jena came to our house to play. I watch Jena on Thursdays for 6 hours while Lacey is at school and then Lacey watches Kaycee on Mondays and Wednesdays for 3 hours each so I can study and do homework. It has been so nice. I get so much studying done. I think it has been really good for Kaycee to get out and do something with someone else besides mom all of the time. I think she does better with sharing then when she is not in her own territory.
So, for lunch and activities we have themes. A few of my favorites have been when we made octopus pictures with their hands and ate octopus in seaweed (hotdogs and ramen noodles) and pizza day. I cut out shapes for toppings on the pizza and we made pizzas and ate mini pizzas. Well, today we had peanut butter and jelly cut into shapes. I haven't had PB and J's for ever. I think they are my new favorite food. We used cookie cutters and made butterflies, flowers, and bunnies. I had a ton of fun. I am pretty sure they enjoyed them too. They each ate several sandwhiches themselves.

So creative Melanie!! It looks like the kids really eat good too, when the food looks so fun. What a great idea!
Holy Cow! You put that much time and effort into lunch...wow, i'm a little ashamed of myself. Sounds like lots of fun though.
You are so cute Melanie! What a fun and creative twist to lunch. Sure looks more fun that just another bowl of mac 'n cheese!
Hey Melanie - I tagged you. You are so creative! I am going to have to ask you for ideas when Cody gets big enough to enjoy them! I love the octopus.
I love it! You are much more creative than I am! No wonder Jenna loves your house! Such cute girls, and great pics!
Hey I found you! Your page is sooo cute! How do you add clip art? And Kaycee is getting sooo huge!
lunchtime at your house sounds like fun! I agree with Tarah, I fell a bit ashamed as well!
I wasn't sure where to respond to your comment, so I am doing so here.
My chart says a boy, and we are hoping it is correct!! Although secretly I would be thrilled with a girl as well!!
This pregnancy is sooo very different from my last, but it will all be worth it in the end! And yes, I too think I am done after this one!!
