How many toys can you make out of diapers.com boxes???

This week we have been busy playing with boxes. I order diapers online from diapers.com. This is the greatest thing ever!!! Free shipping and they show up the next day at your house - this has been such an awesome thing for me. So anyway we have lots of diapers boxes and we've been putting them to good use!!Here Ryan roped the box with a kids rope he bought for Braden and is pulling them around. They LOVED it!!Here's a video (I think I need to help Ryan with matching some days - or maybe just do laundry more often :)

On Valentine's Day we made one box into a house with doors that open on both ends that they can crawl through and stand up and play with it. It has been pretty entertaining too and we were pretty impressed at our craftiness!


I made cupcakes too and the kids obviously enjoyed them, frosting and all. They should be ready for their birthday cake!

Addyson has now learned to feed herself Cheerios. Braden is clapping and is so impressed with himself! He has let go and stood by himself for a couple seconds. They are both cruising all around furniture and trying to walk behind things. They're making great progress all of the sudden! Braden also got tooth #5 and #6 (on the top). They are sleeping MUCH better at night which we are loving.
Here are some other pictures -

Braden thinks the box is good for eating his bottle too. And hanging out with their stuffed gorilla.


Addyson cracks me up - she is so little that she can get herself all kinds of places!


This explains where all those missing little socks are - we have a sock monster!!!

Here's a video of Braden walking behind the lion - when you crash you just push him from the nose. Also helpful when a certain sister gets in the way.

  2. I check your blog every two or three days. It always gives me a lift and a smile. What an awesome God to bring you through this first year so wonderfully. Sorry I missed seeing them at Seth's birthday party, but Bob said they sure were cute. Blessings.
