talking peanuts to paper chains

What a week we had last week.

Siri is offically crawling as of Saturday.

Its awesome. I don't think she will be crawling for long since she likes to crawl to the wall or couch and pull herself up and try to walk.

So the video will not download so a few pics will have to do for now. 

Sage was here all week (practically) to witness Siri crawl along with checking out hair schools and I think she picked one.

Lots and lots of shopping because we all know thats what 17 year old girls like to do...they shop!

In our almost 6 years of marriage I have made Josh a Carrot Cake for his birthday every year.  Although his actual day was a week ago I couldn't let that pass, plus its his favorite.  This year Chamberlain helped and decided on blue frosting complete with sprinkles. 

Yum.

We have gotten into making our own peanut butter. 

We love to slather it on a piece of whole wheat toast with a few banana quarters and a drizzle of local honey. 

Delish!

So today we roasted our own peanuts. The smell is amazing. I loved that I could roast them to my own taste. Did you know that when peanuts are cooling from being roasted they talk. Rice Crispies have nothing on roasted peanuts. They cracked and hissed for a good while and Chamberlain enjoyed listening.

 

Paper Chain. 

We kept busy this afternoon with water color. 

I had chamberlain paint a bunch of lines of packing paper and then we cut it into 10 strips.

I loved how it turned out. I also loved that he ventured outside the color blue. 

We have 10 days till Huddy Buddy arrives. 

Chamberlain can't wait.

Its been too long my Arizona family too long. 

I cant go on living this far away from you guys. 

Its just too far.
