Fun in a can

Ohhhh .... it's raining in Cali. It's raining pretty hard and it's C-O-L-D!!!! ... brrrrr ...

So the theme of yesterday was "stay inside where it's WARM!".
But now what?
With L at school having fun, my little Issie and I were out of ideas.
Until I walked into the bathroom and saw these two lonely Devil Duckies (we LOOOVE Devil Ducks!!!) and Pat's shaving cream ...

... ahah ... "ding-ding" ... light bulb ...
"Let's make a MESS!!"


Can of Shaving Cream = $1.99
Plastic Tray = $1.99 (thrift store price :)
Pretty outfit to mess up = $20
-------------------------------
Hours of messy fun on a rainy day = PRICELESS!!!!



  mushy, creamy, foamy FUN!!!




We added some lila food coloring (na-course) but you couldn't really tell until Lulu washed her hands. 
Apparently food coloring is very well absorbed into the skin, BUT she was super happy with her lila hands for the rest of the day :)




The Dork, snoring away, close to the heater.


Awww ... 
Dork on his PINK blankie, his favorite!!!!
Often you will find him snuggling on his PINK blankie,  but more often you will find him running through the house, like he was just stung by a hornet, carrying his PINK blankie!!! One of those days I will get a pic of it ... it's pretty darn funny!


more awww ... snuggle-snore time for Dorkie





lunch break


When L came home from school she was VERY excited and dove right in too.
This stuff stays foamy, soft and mushy forever!!!

After everybody took a shower (yes, that was necessary!!!) it was time for Ls book report.


Lulu feels obligated to do home work with L now and insists on getting her own assignments. 
She is quite proficient and much less-whiny/complainy about her assignments than her big sissie. 


Lulu just hasn't quite figured out how to use a chair ... it makes dinner time so much more "fun"




All in all, not such a bad rainy day after all.
The Ls were bathed WAY before bed time (a PLUS), the house smells shaving-cream-clean (kind of a PLUS) and an outbreak of cabin fever and sister-warfare has been prevented once more (BIG PLUS!!!).
