Looking to feed your child something new?

Kraft is your answer!
Last year I received a free issue of this magazine and read the fine print that if I signed up on line I could get it for FREE! I thought there would be a catch, or that I wouldn't use it very often...but it is GREAT! I love how it comes with the seasons! If you have a family, or you are in need of some quick meals, RUN to their website, sign-up, and get yours for FREE too!

(and no I am not getting paid to say this :-) )

This Week At Play Group:

This Monday we enjoyed our play group over Kerri and Ashley's home. We missed playing with Pam and Melody (who are on vacation), and Bianca and AJ (who are at home with the newborn).

Here are some pictures from the day (of course I could not help myself from taking 100 of the smiley baby!):

A day filled with CUTENESS

Today was a perfect 10 day! Sunny skies, nice breeze, and plenty of things to play outside! The kids enjoyed swinging, running, playdough, the bubble lawn mower, and other fun things! The moms enjoyed catching up! 

What is new with the Spilt Milk crew:

Penelope is awaiting a baby brother that is expected to come in early November and just returned from her first vacation with her grandparents and without her parents!

Rylan is soon going to be relocating to his new home, which will include a big boy bed, and he recently signed up for Gymboree to keep him busy through the cold months ahead!

Melody continues to talk volumes, and is an avid users of please and thank you's! She likes you to play things HER way, and is signed up to enjoy a music class this Fall!

Anthony Joseph was unable to join us this week because he is at home busy getting used to recently becoming a BIG BROTHER!

Ashley is a social butterfly! She loves everyone! She is also a girlie girl and prefers to wear jewels for every occasion. She is also trying to get used to her new dog chewing up her toys.

Julia and Lillian are going to be moving into their new home soon. Julia loves her shades, and every morning that she wakes up the first things he asks is "where's Lillian?" Lillian is growing by leaps and bounds, and has cut her first tooth. She rolls over both ways, and is the happiest baby on the block (as you can see with the 100890709 pictures of her on here)

Rylan doing what he does best--tossing something!

Funny Meeting You Here

Yesterday was such a beautiful Fall day and the toddlers of the land seemed to be itchy to get out. Pam and I planned to meet at the park for a quick meeting to let the kids let off some steam, and for us to do what us women do best--gossip! We were so happy to see Emily and the girls drive up while we were there. Soon enough we had an impromptu play date! All the kids were happy to swing in the fresh air! I couldn't help but resist taking a million pictures of Lillian on the swings--seeing as she was ALL SMILES!

Here are some cute pics:

Even GREAT things change over time

There is no posting this week for our last moms group since I did not take any pictures, nor did I get to stay while, so I don't have anything to report. Rylan hasn't been wanting to stay at group, and seems he wants to be outside, or doing something a bit different. Spilt Milk blog's future may hold less weekly mom's groups post, and more of unplanned events we have with it's members, and things we are doing in the community in general. I will also continue to post anything I find that relates to preschoolers (such as potty training)!

Rylan and Melly Day

Last week poor Pam had Jury Duty---and not the type were you show up and they let you go after an hour of reading a good book--nor the type that you get called in for a good case---she sat there ALL day! 

Over at the Dos Santos house...we had the honor to have Melody join us for a fun filled day. The kids enjoyed each others company, but wanted alot of choices of things to do. After they finished exploring through all of Rylan's toys, and watched Nemo, it was time for a little creativity. So we decorated cookies, and they finger painted their little hearts out, and in NO time...the two slept for 2 and 1/2 hours AT THE SAME TIME. Here are some cute pictures from the day:

Cookies with M&M's and neither kid stole one to eat on the side!
