Dustyn & His Cardboard Friend

Filed Under: Family

For Christmas Carsyn received a Big Hugs Elmo from his Grammy. We were all joking around how much the kid on the box looked like Carsyn.

Well after we took Elmo out of the box Dustyn decided he wanted to keep the little boy. So when Dustyn was taking the boy off the box he accidentally ripped off the boys head. We were just going to throw it away but Dustyn insisted it was his new best friend and he wanted to keep it. We let Dustyn keep it and he has been having lots of adventures with his cardboard friend. He even said it was his cardboard friends birthday the other day and he made him a cake out of his softee dough. (That is the brand name, it is the same as playdoh but Dustyn insists we call it softee dough.)

He even asked me to take a few pictures with his cardboard friend. I am not sure how long this will last but it is cute and hilarious.

The same day before the cake, Dustyn made a bunch of Angry Birds and Angry Birds Space characters out of the softee dough. I think he did an awesome job. He sure was proud of his work.

It is a shame all the colors got mixed up because of the cake. Though it is cheap so we can buy him some more.

    This made me giggle. I love the minds & imaginations of children. We try so hard to entertain them & they are pretty darn good at doing it themselves!

Love my new Aglaonema Sparkling Sarah (Chinese Eve Love my new Aglaonema Sparkling Sarah (Chinese Evergreen) I picked up from @_rootsplantco this past weekend. The pink is gorgeous and I love it’s name.
6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

The roots of my monstera thai constellation are lo The roots of my monstera thai constellation are looking great. 🙌🏼 Lots of growth in less than 2 weeks.
My monstera deliciosa had some droopy leaves, so I My monstera deliciosa had some droopy leaves, so I asked my friend Molly at @_rootsplantco what she thought would be best. She recommended this wooden trellis from Lowe’s that cost less than $15. I tied up the droopy leaves with twine. There is lots of room left for growth.
I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendro I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendron white wizard when I first got it, I also didn’t give it enough sunlight. So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.

Annelyn is loving her new hair cut and loving her hair straightened. Swipe for some adorable photos, she came up with all her own poses. Also the very last photo is her hair before, it was a hot mess. Mollie cut off 3-4 inches and it looks much healthier now.

Do you celebrate Valentine’s Day? If so, did you do anything fun?
