Mother's Day Craft!

So I'm a little late with this post, but! this project is super easy, super cute, and can be done right now! Gather up your littles, some paint and some paper. Youre about to make the best bouquet of Mothers Day flowers, the kind that never die! We chose to do 3 different colored flowers. These cute little cards got sent out to Lauryn's grandmothers for Mothers Day. They all loved them! Heres what you do...


1. Dip your childs hand in the lightest color paint you have (we did yellow first, then red, then purple). You could also use a paintbrush to apply the paint to your kiddos hand, which is what we did, it makes things a lot easier!

2. Have them do an open hand stamp onto the piece of paper. Then proceed with the next 2 (or more) colors.

3. Allow the handprint flowers to dry, then using a small brush, paint on flower stems, and leaves.

4. Once the stems and leaves are done, paint a pretty bow around the flowers, giving the illusion of them being tied together in a little bouquet.

Tada! The whole project took us about 20 minutes from start to finish. Cute, easy, and in my book, a better bouquet of flowers than any amount of money could buy!

Happy St.Patricks Day!

Forgive me for not posting so much lately, there is soooo much going on for us right now! This will more than likely be my last post for a few weeks, I'll explain later! But I wanted to leave yall with a few pictures from our lame St.Patricks Day celebration. Celebration probably isnt even the right word, but it snuck up on me so fast! I didnt have time to prepare like I wanted! Next year will be better! I promise!!

She loved her St.Pattys breakfast! Green whole wheat pancakes, green grapes, green milk and a green sippy cup, all to match her green shirt, bib, and bows! I made sure no one was going to pinch her today!

I loved her outfit today! Unfortunately she wasnt in it long. It was SOOO hot today! So...

So, we busted out her amazeballs zebra pool and let her go for a swim after a picnic lunch in our front yard! Too bad she didnt have a green swimsuit!

And of course we ended the day with dessert. A green filled cupcake! They were super tasty by the way!


Again, sorry for the lame post, and the lack of posting coming up, I will explain all soon!!!
