CARMEL POPCORN BALLS

Olivia and I had fun making popcorn balls.  We enjoyed putting our
finger in the eagle brand milk and eating it.  Olivia was having fun getting a cup of brown sugar;
 I think she had more on her clothes than in the cup. 

Carmel Popcorn recipe

2c. brown sugar, packed

1 cube butter (real butter)

1 can eagle brand milk

1c. light corn syrup

1t. vanilla

Cook on medium heat; Stir frequently; bring to a boil. Stir constantly; boil 5 minutes.

Add vanilla. Pour over 3 batches popcorn (1/2c. unpopped corn each).  Add M&M's and

candy corn to your tates.  Form into balls.

Make sure you keep stirring and fast.  I had mine on medium heat and it was burining a little on

the bottom of the pan.  Also use a wooden spoon when making carmel.  Put butter on hands to

help form popcorn into balls.  Enjoy

Growth Hormone Shot

This is Cadens shot he gets every day.  It is pretty nice to use,
It has a dial at the end that you turn for the correct amount
and then there is a black rectangle switch in the middle that you
push to the side which puts the meds into your body.  At the top
the meds are all held in there.  All you do is switch to a new needle
every time you use it.

Go Go Dog that walks.  She even took it for a walk
around the block.

The Stampede with 100 darts.  Caden is ready for war!! 
Anyone want to join?

Baby Alive!!  She is thrilled to feed the baby and hear it talk.  She
even sleeps with it.  Good thing this one doesn't poop.

I think mommy is more excited than baby. :) Grace cried more at getting a shot than she did getting her ears pierced. The nice lady gave her a sucker afterwards. She enjoyed that!
