Once upon a time I had a creative bug but didn't know how to get rid of it. So this past Saturday Rosie was to go to her first birthday party for a cute boy at church. I wasn't sure what to get a 2 year old and after much thought and applying things that I researched over the past couple weeks I decided to make something for him. So we all too a trip to Staples and I got blank index cards, colored pencils (because I didn't know where mine had ended up), an index card case, clear contact paper, and mini dry erase markers with eraser.
Here was my thought...compact size flash cards on a key ring, water proof, baby proof, and you can make your own picture for each letter over and over again.

| So these are the cards I just finished coloring for Rosie today (Jaxon
already got his obviously). I drew the letters, colored them, then
punched holes in them. Then I will cover them with contact paper (and
some glue stick) or self stick laminate. The attach to a key ring. Put
them in the cute index card case and throw the travel dry erase markers
so they can color on the blank back over and over, for years and years
of use. |
 |
| So I decided I could use numbers too, and with these ones she can take off and use for adding and subtracting and make bigger than 10 numbers because I made her a 0 too. |
 |
| And here are the few shapes I have added, I will probably have lots of time tomorrow to do more shapes and such at work. So there is my creative stint. |

| I couldn't get this kid to stay still to get all the close ups I wanted |
 |
| I was aiming for the teeth |
 |
| Trying to get the chunk of brown in her eye |
 |
| Trying to get the "Talkative" Caption on the front of her onesie |
 |
| This is what my daughter thought she should do with my underwear..cute eh?! |
