Videos

A few videos from the past week…

Last weekend Alan made oobleck with the kids. They all loved it. :)

During the week while I was at orientation and Alan was home with the kids, Lex decided to make a top-secret surprise. He spent a full day in the office with a Top-Secret Work in Progress sign (I should have taken a picture of his cute sign!) hanging on the office door. One morning he emerged with this:

I had the camera on the wrong setting which is why that video is all orange. I paused it for a second and switched settings. Here’s the rest.

Do you like my new jewelry display? I have been thinking about for months. Scouring Pinterest and the blog-o-sphere. Planning. Thinking. Almost shopping for supplies. Are you noticing that I tend to over-think the stupidest things?!?

I bought two necklaces at the Gap yesterday (tres chic!) and with barely a thought started sticking thumb tacks into the inside of my closet door. A few thumb tacks, a sheet of old fabric, and voila! Jewelry neatly arranged. No tangles. No mess. Easy peasy.

It only took me about six months of thought and five minutes of work!!
