Starting Solids

Tenley recently started solids, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned after having 6 kids, it’s that you don’t need all the bells and whistles; but some things just make life easier. This is a list of things that I’ve found useful this time around.

Happy Halloween! ⠀ ⠀ The big kids were sad tha Happy Halloween! ⠀
⠀
The big kids were sad that they had to miss their @hatch_coding session, but they cleaned up while trick or treating with 70 full sized candy bars and bags of chips. ⠀
⠀
This might also be the warmest I ever remember it being while trick or treating (with the exception of our stint in Savannah). As a parent it was kinda nice. ⠀
⠀
Can anyone beat our full sized candy bar haul? ⠀
⠀
⠀
⠀
Saturday Morning Breakfast sandwiches are on repea Saturday Morning Breakfast sandwiches are on repeat over here and now the kids are opening their very own Breakfast Cafe in the Playroom. ⠀

⠀
We went to the lake, swam, play baseball, gardened, we @hatch_coding, read books, hit up the fair, took some family photos and all around just enjoyed each others company (for the most part). ⠀
⠀
Summer 2024, you were good to us. Until next year. 😘⠀

If your kids are interested in coding, go ahead an If your kids are interested in coding, go ahead and sign up for a free account to the @hatch_coding program now. It’s such an interactive learning platform and gives them hands on coding experience. Plus, if they get stuck there is always the option to hire a 1:1 mentor (which I can’t recommend enough). ⠀
⠀
Lincoln has been meeting with Emma for 7 months and every week he looks forward it, especially now that they’re designing a game together. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
If your kids are into STEM, Hatch Coding is a great way to enhance their learning and finish off the summer strong. ⠀

Cooking outside of my kitchen just got a whole lot Cooking outside of my kitchen just got a whole lot easier thanks to the Foodsaver Vacuum Elite All-In-One-Liquid+ #gifted. ⠀
⠀
No more worrying if I have all the ingredients or tools for marinading dinner while traveling because everything is prepped and perfectly sealed to avoid the mess before I even leave. And I didn’t have to spend a whole day of my vacation stuck in the kitchen! ⠀
⠀
🚨Just make sure to leave out the citrus juices and vinegar from your chicken marinades until the day you plan to cook or your meat will go stringy and nasty. ⠀
⠀

🇺🇸 Happy 4th from this awesome crew. 🇺🇸
❤️🤍💙 Fourth of July Sensory Bag ❤️🤍💙⠀
⠀⠀
The Foodsaver Vacuum Elite All-In-One-Liquid+ (#gifted) is not just good for food, it can also be used for play! Thanks to the liquid setting, I was able to make Tenley a red, white, and blue sensory pouch. ⠀
⠀
I wasn’t sure how it would work, but it was quick and easy; and the thicker Foodsaver material is perfect for this kind of play. ⠀
⠀
Just make your bag the size you want, use rubbing alcohol to remove the markings and then fill with whatever you please. I used water beads, glitter, some star vase fillers, and about a cup of water. ⠀
⠀
*Always remember to supervise your kids with any type of water bead play.*⠀
⠀
It’s a perfect option for mess free sensory play!⠀
