A couple of Sundays ago I realized that between carrying the kids' church bag with all of their stuff, plus my stuff for my lessons and my purse, I was not going to have enough arms to hold everything once this baby came! So, I decided the kids needed to start being in charge of their own stuff (since their teachers want them to bring scriptures to church, too!).
I found these perfect kid-sized totes at Hobby Lobby and made an iron-on transfer of their names and the "I Am a Child of God" print. Then, I let them freezer-paper stencil/paint the pics on the other pockets. We finished them on Monday and every day Sydney kept telling us how excited she was for Sunday. Now, they can happily carry their own snack, water, Book of Mormon, coloring book, crayons, and Silly Putty. It's a win-win.

They already seem like their getting older, but I know soon they'll seem even older compared to a newborn!
