So we got a new computer last week, so I am still trying to figure out how to load pictures on the one comp- for some reason I just can't get it to work right. I do have a new belly pic to show, so for those of you interested, that is coming!!
On an unrelated note, I was reading all about crayons this morning- mostly about how long they take to break down in landfills. Did you know that crayons are petroleum based?? I started thinking about how many crayons we must go through every month- if you add up that every restaurant we go to gives Henry at least 3 to color with, and all the broken crayons that we get here on a monthly basis, we are talking LOTS.
So I looked into donation, and although it is cool that these companies take the old crayons and make new ones to sell, I figure we could save some money (and maybe produce a little less trash) by collecting all of our crayons and making new funky crayons. They are simple to make in the oven and Henry would end up with some fun shapes and colors....
We are starting our collection now, and we will let you know how it goes and show you some cool new crayons soon!
