Kid's How To Make A Mobile.

Ok, so I thought I’d have a chance to write something Sat- I didn’t.  My bad.  Reminder, giveaway start Monday : )

But on my list of to-dos was ”update blog with weight check-in and post Bo’s tutorial and pics”.  Regrettably, I fell asleep before I had that chance.   So here it is, Sunday night, I am down another 1.4lbs!!  Woo hooo.  That’s a total of 17.8lbs.  Only 42.2 to go.  A quick review- I recently had my fourth child (6 mo. ago) and went into the pregnancy already 20lbs overweight.  After having Cullen, I didn’t like the way I felt or looked.  So off to weight watchers I dragged myself.  I literally made all kinds of excuse why not to join and tried to talk my way out of attending a meeting.  Thank goodness I went.  I’ve been a member since June 30th, 2009 an I’m down 17.8lbs.  The points system works.

Next we have Sabrina’s first tutorial.  She’s so cute.  She’s about to turn ten in ten days.  She was watching me sew one night and decided to do something crafty herself.  I only wish I’d taken pics as she assembled her four season mobile.  The following are her directions in black (my comments in blue):

Step 1.  You take two chopsticks and tie them together (in a criss cross or X with string or twine).

Step 2.  Make four leafs and color you want (she did the four seasons).

Step 3.  Then you get a hole puncher and punch 4 holes in the four leafs.

Step 4.  You tie a long string to the top (to hand it from something).

Step 5.  You hand it where all the people (you love) can see.
