Mother's Day 2008

We had a great Mother's Day. I got wonderful gifts and super special breakfast and dinner. I was missing my mom and sister but will get to see them soon. It was a rainy, windy day so we decided to go to an LP Art exhibit. It was very cool to see all the album cover art.

Gabe's Bean Bin

Gabriel is in Occupational Therapy for Sensory Integration Disfunction (SID). And one of the therapy tools they use is a bean bin. It's just like it sounds, a bin full of dried pinto beans. He likes it so much at therapy we decided to make one at home for him to play in. 1 plastic tub and 16 lbs of beans = FUN!!

Sandbox and Sidewalk Chalk

We've been having such wonderful weather, that last weekend we got out Gabriel's turtle sandbox (thanks Aunt Michelle). He just loves to build sand castles (and then crash them). We also played with sidewalk chalk. Check it out:

Scrapbook Pages

All of you know of my love of scrapbooking. Now if only I could make some money doing it...hmmm. Anyway, here are some of my new pages. I'll try and add more as I can.

Touch-A-Truck

We took Gabriel to an event where they had firetrucks, school buses, police cars, ambulances, dump trucks, garbage trucks and more. The kids got to climb inside and even honk the horns. He liked it! His favorite was the fire truck!
