I tell them all the time they act like wild animals, and tonight I got to watch them be the best animals ever! So cute.
We usually start the night at Grandma P’s house and then hit the streets! This year the weather was so nice we only had to wear sweaters yay!. So we have a Star Wars ARF Trooper, Boba Fett, Tinker Bell and a Strawberry.
When hunting for eggs it’s better safe than sorry. B-Man always wears a helmet.

I don’t know why I’m posting this, but I caught a two year old that will remain nameless trying to make chocolate milk in the toilet today. There are some things I never thought I would have to tell someone not to do.
I’m struggling to do a french braid in K-Kat’s hair that doesn’t look like she did it herself. I tried this the other day and it looked good and stayed in really well too.
I was sent a link from my sister-in-law to a blog about doing little girl hair http://www.princesshairstyles.com/. I have been floating around the internet the last couple of days in a world I didn’t even know existed, ha ha. Here is our beginner attempt at princess hair.
I started by making a part in a circle around her head. The hair on the inside I twisted in a clip to keep out of the way. Next I parted the outer circle in the middle at the top and made two small ponies on either side of her face.
Here is how to make a crazy crayon. Why would you want to make a crazy crayon? So you can take your crayon drawings to a whole new level of ‘artsy’.
1. Make a mold out of tinfoil. I made mine using a water bottle ice cube tray, but you can also mold one around your finger, etc. This would also be a good time to turn on the oven. I don’t think the temperature really matters, we used 350.
Here are the kids in their Christmas pajamas, all ready to go to sleep and wait for Santa. Merry Christmas!
We started B-Cookie on solid food today. What a cutie pie! She has just thoroughly enjoyed a bowl of rice cereal. Mmmmm.
B-Cookie takes a bath. She is very calm and never screams or cries in the bathtub. That’s good, because she spits up a lot and often smells like cheese.
Crazy-L turned five today! We celebrated with a trip to the Corn Maze and a picnic supper at Park Lake. Here is the recipe for the beef on a bun we had. Easy BBQ Beef on a Bun.
We went camping in Waterton this weekend. It was B-Cookie’s first camping trip and she was a great baby. I must admit camping with four kids is a lot of work, but we all had a great time. Next time we will definitely stay longer because setting up and packing up are not the funnest parts of the trip.
More baby feet, and more of Grandpa’s hard working hands. I wish I had a fancy quote for baby feet, they make me feel closer to heaven. Although I had a friend and her baby girl kind of had stinky feet. I still don’t know how you get a baby to have stinky feet.
This is a one light set up. A SB600 1/8 power directly above and behind camera about 2 or 3 feet from subject shot through a shoot through umbrella. I am shooting about 2 feet from subject. Camera set at 1/80 f3.5 ISO 200 with a 50mm 1.4 lens on a Nikon D200. The baby’s legs were wrapped with a piece of black velvet that was spread out to make a light sucking black background.
