I just wanted to remind everyone that I will be on a blogging vacation until January 6th. I have some roundups that I wanted to share with you in the time I will be off and then on January 6th, I will be back with some fun new series and crafts! I wish a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours! Dex is finally getting interested in sorting, stacking (not just knocking down) and doing things with me. Now that he's almost 2 (OMG when did that happen) I have been doing some research on some little things that him and I can do together. I put together a quick little roundup with 6 ideas for "busy boxes" that I can start him on and leave him to his own to do. I thought I would share with you!
