J is for...

Juggling and Jello Pudding pops! Juggling was the best J thing we could think of, so I made a set of bean bags for each family member. Ilea's is made from the material I made her Easter dress out of, Kylers is out of leftover fabric from his bedspread, mine are yellow, which is my favorite color, and Kipp's are blue with sparkles.

Kipp is the only one of us who actually knows how, so we started our training last night. We worked on it more today, but it may be a bigger effort than one day. I can juggle 3 balls for 3 times, essentially moving 2 bean bags from my right hand to my left hand, but unable to toss again to do 4 times. The kids are still working on getting comfortable with 2 bean bags going at the same time, starting from either hand. We'll keep at it! It's fun, and as Kyler says, "then we would be the juggling family!".


Ilea made Jello pudding pops all by herself. She's getting pretty good at reading and following directions. They are freezing now, and should be ready soon.

Expect a hiatus from ABC's of summer for a while...Kyler has cub scout day camp the rest of this week, and then we will be vacationing for a bit. We'll resume later in the summer. Have fun!
