Life with my 3yr old

CarLee is my crazy, fun loving, independent, tough, little girl. She loves to sing, dance, and wrestle with her brothers. We have fun together but she sure keeps me on my toes.

Today she woke up and her hair was it's usual crazy mess had to laugh and take a picture ha ha!!

So we got ready and took the boys to school and then had to run some errands. First thing was to go to the post office. I was not sure when it opened so I asked my phone. CarLee then decided she wanted to ask my phone some questions also. She peeps up 'ok Google now take me to Peyton's' ha ha she is a smart one!

After running errands we got drinks and were on our way home. She said mom something is on my cup. I look back at her to see red all over her face and cup. Took me a minute but she had a bloody nose. It didn't even phase her.

She always makes me smile and everyone she sees I her best friend!!

Fun going from 3 to 4!!

A little dinner prep by all

With school starting my mom decided it was a good idea to get some meals prep for the next few weeks.

 
So Saturday we got all the recipes put together and set up a few prep stations. My two boys pick two recipes and we helped them read it and put it together. It was a lot of fun for everyone and now my kids are excited to eat the dinner they made.

 The other nice thing is the recipie we used were all crock pot so no hot oven in the summer and no cooking had to be done during prep.

The ones we have had so far are pretty good and has made my week so nice. We have had good dinners and I don't have to spend time figuring out what to cook and shop.
Here is the blog that we used and just a heads up her grocery list is for each meal 3 times. We didn't do 30 meals we did about 15.

So I plan on doing this more. It will definitely help on this crazy adventure from 3 to 4.

Summer fun inside

So here in AZ it's way to hot to play outside in the summer. We do go to the pool a lot and library but it's getting to the end of the summer and my kids and I are tired of the same stuff and being stuck inside. So I went to Pinterest and found some fun ideas. Then we headed to the Dollar Tree and got our supplies.

I spent $6 and got 14 latex balloons, 2 things of party streamers, 3 helium balloons and a dart gun (the ones we have are hard for CarLee so this one was easier for her to shot).

When we got home we started blowing up the balloons and taking them all over the loft. Then I sent the kids into thier room and I set up a lazer obstacle course they had to get through before they could shoot the ball on targets.

It was so much fun and we even had leftover streamers to make a lazer course for Clay to get through in order to get to his room when he got home from work.

Of course we invites a freind because my kids play so much better if there is someone else to play with and its more fun with friends.

So thank you Pinterest and The Dollar Tree for the fun time!!

Got to love figuring out this journey from 3 to 4!!!
