Snow day activities

Last week we were trapped in the house all week! It snowed on Sunday and Monday, and the roads were icy until the end of the week. School was cancelled, as were the rest of our activities. Sophia and I both were going a little stir crazy and had to come up with some new activities to entertain us.

One of the days, I decided to try baking with Sophia. She loves to watch Daddy cook, but she's never actually helped cook. We decided to make chocolate muffins. I measured out the ingredients and let Sophia pour them in the bowl. She helped mix everything up, and watched as I spooned the batter into the muffin tins. She watched the muffins bake through the window of the oven, and when they were done she got to taste them! Yum!

Look what I made!


Mmmm...I'm a good cook!


Being so silly


Later that day, we decided to get out the art supplies and do some art together. She loved coloring with the markers and using the do a dots. She also liked touching them with her fingers and seeing how the color rubbed off on her skin.
