At My House

...Well it wasn't exactly at my house...but I'm rarely at my house so I hope I can still join in with 'at my work' 

I am a full time nanny for 3 gorgeous children aged 7, 5 and 2. I was really looking forward to today as the oldest 2 were at school and we had no jobs to do so youngest and I had the whole day for exploring! My plan was a day in the New Farm Park which has only recently re-opened and we have been dying for a free day to go check it out! However I wake up this morning to...rain...park plan = FAIL!

My brain went instantly into panic mode...what am I going to do all day with a very hyperactive 2 year old...normally the day gets broken up with shopping or jobs or he has trips with his mum but today we were all free! 

~ Thank goodness for my Blog community ~

Luckily last night I had been reading through, with delight, Buttons by Lou Lou's and her followers "At My House" Blogs. I went straight to the pantry and tried to find all the rice and pasta and bits and pieces I could get my hands on! As this was a last minute plan I had no time for dying any of the rice or pasta but I still think youngest had a ball! 

...We had a selection of rice, pasta, paints, regular stamps and a sweet potato stamp...

...After preparing tonight's dinner I had the end of a sweet potato left over so I cut some jagged edges into it and we used it as a vegetable stamp...

... I found a broken car so once youngest had completed some painting I told him to drive his car through it ...

... car painting ...

So THANK YOU very much to the crafty mum bloggers out there! 

You made our rainy day!
