Crafty kids

My kids have been pretty creative the last few months. Here is what we've been up to!

I don't often get to see Carter take a nap (I think he's only dozed off twice this year). So this was a fun surprise I found in Haylee's room.
Can't believe this kid is going to Kindergarten in August!
A crown fit for a king.
I don't think this kid realizes that his head is much bigger than he thinks it is.





Annual sugar cookies.
(Yes, that is right, I only make these once a year.)



Olivia's clay replica of this...




Speaking of Olivia...she got very sick this past month. It lasted almost an entire week.
Not only am I so glad it's over with, I'm also glad that Carter didn't get it. I am not a fan of changing the sheets on her top bunk everyday.




Carter LOVES boxes.
Whenever a package arrives at the door, he cares more that he can have the box than about what is inside the box.
So when I emptied out the diaper box, Carter and Olivia were excited for their next project...a car.




Olivia asked if I could remove the wheels from the rollerskates for the wheels for her car. Ha. So this is what the kids came up with...taping cars to all four corners. They wanted to glue them on with Elmer's glue, but after I turned them down on that idea too, they turned to tape.
At least they laughed when Olivia got in and it promptly hit the ground.



Makeover project. I got this desk for $5 at a yard sale last year. After a little sanding, primer, three coats of paint and some new pull knobs...
