Getting Started

Hello!
I have been debating starting a blog for quite some time.  I think I am finally ready for the challenge.  A little background information:
I am a stay at home mommy to two amazing little ones and married to the man of my dreams.  Our Little Monkey is 2.5 and a very busy little boy.  Our Little Princess is 6 months old and learning something new everyday.  We live on Vancouver Island and it tends to rain every-so-often :)
I have always had a passion for working with children and before we moved I had the privilege of working with children with Down Syndrome at a place called PREP.  I did a variety of jobs while I worked there and learned so much.  I had the opportunity to work in the preschool while I was there and fell in love.  I love creating and watching children learn.
Now that Little Monkey is getting older and busier, I am constantly thinking of fun new exciting things for us to do.  Little Princess won't be far behind.  We love to be outside but when it is raining...ok storming...we can't always make it outside.  We tend to get a little bit of cabin fever, and believe me, that is no fun for anyone!  I am always trying to come up with new fun and exciting things for us to do while we are stuck inside.
I have had quite a few requests to share some of the things I do/make.  I thought this would be a great way to do it.  I am hoping to post at least a few times a week to start off, with the hopes to start posting daily.
I hope you enjoy my Rainy Day Distractions!
