So, in my wise packing to come to SC, we only brought what could fit with us in the car...meaning a great deal of the girls' toys--especially their larger ones--- are still in a storage unit in NM. We did bring some of their smaller sets, but it's not the same. Craig gave in and let me but the girls some new toys--I found smokin' deals too-- and I love the fact that my girls will play with them...a lot....for long periods of time. It's WONDERFUL. Especially the new doll house...Grace is in love with it and disappears into her room to play with them for a really long time. :) I'm glad that they are seeming a bit more "settled" these days and are calming down on their "I miss our house/toys/NM/friends" rants that make me feel so bad.
On another note, we planted a garden for FHE last week. Granted, we don't have the space that we'd have in NM, but our balcony works just fine. :) We plated tomatoes, green peppers, squash, and flowers. Hopefully we'll get them to grow!!
New blocks:
New kitchen: (We brought some of their food/dishes with us)The girls also worked hard for weeks to earn this toy by getting all of their stones in their chore/behavior jar. Thanks for the jar idea Marci!
New dollhouse: This is seriously cool toy too--it reminds of the oldschool houses that I remember growing up. It came with lots of furniture too which was fun.
The start of our garden:
