Going green

In an effort to reduce our Christmas waste I decided to recycle some packing material and have the boys paint it to use for wrapping paper



It resulted in a couple of very dirty boys (nice twin boogies Ronan!)

And some unique wrapping paper!

We all snuggled on the couch last night after bath and watched Wall-E. Its a very cute movie. It was supposed to be a stocking stuffer for them but I didn't get it hidden in time and Logan snagged it out of the bag.

Night 3 of No Paci was not quite as successful as the prior nights but we managed. There was a little crying (just him, not me) but once he realized I wasn't going to give it to him he resorted to squirming and flailing about. When that didn't work he climbed into my lap and went to sleep. (I admit I did cave at naptime and let him have one 'because he just wouldn't setlle)

Promised Logan we would take him bike riding today. So thats all we have planned. Hopefully I will feel better I have the whole "lost in space" thing going on right now.

Very cool idea, Jeanna!! And yay on the no paci progress. It'll get easier. Isn't it amazing how these little ones surprise us with their willingness to give something like that up?!
