Anyway. Today. After trying to wear the boys out in the basement with an obstacle course of sorts, we sat down and talked about gardening. I got this great little seed start container at IKEA of all places. I set Keegen up with a bowl of dirt, a spoon, a shaker container and tossed a few pumpkin seeds his way. Bode got a bowl of dirt, a spoon and a thing of water. He filled the individual containers with dirt, a little water, cut open the seed packs with his handy scissors, made an indentation and dropped the seeds on in. He loved it! It was a fun, messy little activity that we all enjoyed. Keegen stayed pretty well occupied with his dirt/seed piles and even tasted a spoonful of his concoction. Not surprisingly, he didn't seem to mind it one bit.
I couldn't find my camera until AFTER we were done. Got some video though.

Soo sorry you are still singin' the winter blues! Uggh! Hope if warms up soon. We are barely there as we had TWO days in a row that were warm AND sunny. Cute garden thing. My kids would love something like that. I'll have to venture to Ikea!
