Everything Axolotl and Being an Aunt

Everything Axolotl

Sadie loves axolotls. I didn’t know what they were (a type of salamander 😂) until she started talking about them a few months ago and now I know *everything* about them.

I think one of the fun things about homeschooling is that we can incorporate Sadie’s interests into our lessons. This week has been all about axolotls: we read a fact book, crafted, did a research project, and even baked cookies!

Food from Italy and Decorating for Valentine’s Day

My blogging friend Pree and I recently decided to do a food swap and it was so much fun! I’ve been following her in the blog world for several years and always love keeping up with her life, especially since she has been living in Italy!

She was missing some American food and I was eager to try all things Italian. She sent along Pan de Stelle spread, cereal bars, Kinder chocolate, nougat, and all sorts of goodies. I had to fight with Jimmy and Sadie to try the Kinder chocolate 😜
