I found a new way to entertain Pierson. We got out his nerf gun, set up a stool, lined up some of his "bad guys" and made a game of him trying to shoot the bad guys and knock them off the stool. He thought this was the greatest thing and had so much fun!
Jam Day
The last few year I have enjoyed making raspberry jam in the summer. The kids were excited to help me. I let them squish up the berries (after a very thorough hand/arm SCRUBBING from Mom.) They love this! Pierce has been being my helper the last couple years, but this was Madi's first squishing experience. They had a lot of fun and the amazing thing was- they actually did help me! How great is that?! Here are a few of my favorite shots.

P.S. Thanks for your sweet comments on my blog. I added a little video clip of the song to my Iron Man post so you can hear a bit. I'll get the finished recording on my playlist soon. :)
