Our Daddy...

I know everyone says that their daddy is the greatest... but really... this daddy is the greatest! hehe
Every Soccer loving daddy needs a kit to get him through the games... so the kids and I put together this little bundle for our special daddy.
Our precious Daddy needs quiet time too, so i designed a doorknob hanger just for him. I hope the boys will get the idea.
The boys put together (with a little help) these well needed bookmarks for daddy. He has so many books on the go... so these cool little markers will keep daddy on the right page!

We love you... Our special daddy!

Happy Daddy's Day!

Reuven Nadav Salinger

Our third son, Reuven Nadav is here.
Reuven (the english form being, Reuben) means 'behold a son!', and Nadav means 'generous'.
We truly feel SO blessed for this beautiful and generous gift from God... another son.
Reuven was born on Wednesday the 12th of May, weighing 3.4kgs. The C-section was in the end an amazingly joyful experience and we are just SO thankful to the Lord for the peace and comfort He gave.

We are all now home, and are so enjoying being a family of 5.

Though a little more sleep would be appreciated by all.

These were simply plain and boring wooden blocks that we had lying around.

But with a little paint, a ton of patience, sandpaper, and these adorable farm animals... out came these sweet little aged wooden blocks for baby number 3's corner of the room.

I will add the final coat of modge podge to them soon, but here they are!

So thats my handmade project #3! (Number 4 is almost almost completed. )

Thanks for taking the time to view!!

enjoying Spring in our new home...

This is our new seasons and education/ display corner. yes this has been a multi-purpose area... but i think its finally found its use.
...and as you can see there is plenty of room left on the shelves for a lot more crafts, books and fun things that we will make and create!!


Caterpillars are an absolute FAVOURITE of shalevs right now, so we made these lovely little creatures to display on our spring shelf.
and these birdies (stones) were fun to make as well. Shalev loves glueing! So this activity was the best.


happy Spring!
