101 Uses for Boxes...other than moving.

This past week I pulled all of our moving boxes out of storage and slowly I've started the packing process. I don't know what it is with kids but it seems they all love boxes?! Jordan has found many uses for our boxes so far...

He started out putting them on his head and calling them his 'helmet' and then running all over the apartment.

Then he created a runway to run down while wearing his 'helmet', and since it seemed a bit unsafe and we've already been to the urgent care once this week, we convinced him to wear a different kind of helmet. One that would allow him to actually see.


And a throwback from my own childhood is the coloring your outline. My mom use to trace around us on big sheets of butcher paper on the kitchen floor and then we would color ourselves.


I know, not real exciting but that is our life right now. :)
