This and That

Corbin is working really hard on his walking skills. He still prefers to crawl but he can take several steps in a row now. He has been loving Cason's train conductor hat lately so we have several photos of him wearing it :)








Cason LOVES his dinosaur slippers. He wanted to go to Home Depot with Scott the other day wearing them and we let him---it's called choosing your battles---ha!



We went to the pumpkin patch in Celina with the Kempsons and had a blast! Cason and Madi were so cute walking around holding hands---I just love them!

Our new favorite play dough recipe!!! I tried this recipe and it is my favorite so far....



I liked the recipe as it was but I read on a blog that it worked really well to switch the vegetable oil for baby oil so I made one batch with vegetable oil and one batch with baby oil and Scott and I both thought the one with the baby oil was the best. So out of 5 play dough batches this is my favorite....


Ingredients
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 1/3 cup salt
  • 1 tablespoon baby oil
  • food coloring for color, any color glitter for sparkle, and scents are fun to add in as well. You can use any of the liquid extracts for scent, a package of sugar free jello for scent, or even various spices----nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, etc. 
Instructions

Mix together all the ingredients in a 2 quart saucepan. Cook over low/medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue stirring until the mixture is much thicker and begins to gather around the spoon.
Remove the dough onto wax paper or a plate to cool. 

And last but not least---I VOTED today. Glad to be done with that!
