We all stayed busy this week although we didn't really leave the house much. Although we went to the park almost every day because the weather was really nice for January. High 40's to 50's! Here are some of the high points of the week.

• The girls wanted to do a craft this week so while Bodee was sleeping I got out the paint for them. I let them make Christmas wrapping paper even though Christmas is done. They still loved it! They just love anything that has to do with art:)

• Addy and her Daisy Girl Scout Troop received their Daisy pin this week. (I obviously did not get a good picture of Addy!) All their mothers came and we said the Pledge of Allegiance and the Girl Scout Promise with the hand sign. It was so cute! They received their pin and a 100 year Girl Scout Anniversary badge. I really love being their troop leader, they are all great girls. 

• So Bodee loves popsicle. This is a big Pace popsicle and he can shove the whole thing in his mouth! Love this kid:)

• Addy has been saving her money since this summer and it has been burning a hole in her pocket. Especially since I wouldn't let her buy anything during the Christmas season and made her wait to see what Santa brought her. So this week Addy asked if we could go to Build-A-Bear Workshop. I took the girls last year but some how throughout the last year Addy lost her animal so I told her if she bought her own animal then I would take them. Since I had some gift cards left over from last year Addy bought her own animal (a Valentine's cat named Rosie) but I was able to buy each Brynn and Addy an outfit for their animals. Brynn's dog from last year is named Davey. They had a great time!

• Here they are washing their animals. They were nice and let Brynn rewash Davey. 

• Today was officially Brynn's first day of Primary! She loved it! She felt very grown up going into the big room and sitting a few rows up from Addy. My kids are growing up too fast! (And now the tears start to fall!)
