The Best Toy Ever

Hubby desperately needed a new cell phone. So we went to US Cellular and splurged. Yup, bought two new phones. And they each cost $0.01. Hehe.... I would have loved to have a cool phone, but I didn't need one, I only wanted one.
The kids got our old phones. I thought that Princess C and Toddler B would love them. After all, they loved to play with them when they were not toys. However, D and N got a hold of them. And they LOVE them! The phones have a camera and video on them, so they are the perfect toy. They boys have played with them non stop since we gave them to them. They have found things on the phones that we never knew were there - and we had the phones over 2 years!
So this is what the boys have looked like for the last week.

About Me

Oh, the crazy things that happen in my house.... I am the wife of M for 8 1/2 years now. I am the mother of a 10 yo boy - D, 6 1/2 yo boy - N, 4 yo girl - Princess C, 2 1/2 yo boy -Toddler B, and girl Lil' L 1, and a new little blessing due Jan 31. I've been homeschooling since 2003. I lean towards a Charlotte Mason approach, but more often than not, it's "whatever works".
