Nap Time

Every day Carter takes a nap from 12-3pm so Coop and I have 3 hours to hang out and do some "arts and craft show" (as Cooper says).  So here are some of the things we have done during nap times.

My Projects
Flowers
I made these cute flowers to add to some flair to a couple of my shirts.

Flowered headbands
To spice up my hair. (gotta do something since my hair stylist is in Utah)


Cute crocheted hats for newborns 
I will be getting to use them for my new nephew's photoshoot


( I guess we better have a girl next ;-)

Homemade Decorations
 Since we don't bring any decorations with us I try to make some up when we get here
Cardboard vase,  Cardboard "Family" letters, and the Home-made canvas prints


Coop's Projects
Coop LOVES to paint so that is how he spends alot of his time.

"Trees" & "Apples"

"Family Picture" & "Daddy's car driving to Alta in the Snow"

"Coop and Daddy Skiing" & "Covering the page with paint :-)"

Other projects with beans and construction paper + glue.

He also spends a fair amount of time between bubbles, sidewalk chalk, & playdoh.  Once he's exhausted all his options, he gets to watch his 1 movie of the day.
So that's what we do everyday...anyone got any more ideas for us?  I think we may need some more pretty soon when he gets tired of these.

Okay seriously Cass? SEND THOSE MY WAY! Those head bands, hats, and flowers are all to die for. Why can I not be crafty? Where did you learn that stuff? I had no idea. Can you make me one of those hats in MY SIZE and like a red one for this little chica that's coming soon? I would pay big bucks for those! SO CUTE. I miss you guys. It was so fun to be with you last weekend. You were a life saver at the reunion. Love you guys.
