Upcycling and yogurt

I've been looking at the stack of formula cans in the kitchen waiting to go out to the recycling bin and I realized...I could probably use those for something. I've been following a blog called Mod Podge Rocks, and It gave me an idea...

TA DA! baby toy storage bins!
One holds the many tiny finger puppets and little stuffed monsters...

another holds all of the hard toys like plastic ball, duckies, etc..

The last one is my favorite (because it's made out of paper I stole from my Mom's house) it holds the fun tubes of finger paints that Ezra delves into almost every day.

When we're done playing with what's inside we stuff it all in and close the lid...although the new game has become..pull it out...put it back...pull it out...put it back...so funny!

Today we decided to try yogurt. I haven't been able to stomach the stuff since I was in elementary school (not counting the drinkable ones I chugged when I was pregnant!) but Ezra....

LOVES IT! Stoneybrook farms makes an organic Yobaby yogurt that has pear and green bean puree on the bottom. How awesome is that? Soooo....even though the smell makes me dry heave...I guess I'll just plug my nose. =)

Cute containers! I love them! You're so creative! So, those yogurts I tried for the first time when I was there with you guys - I'm addicted! I love them so much! I can't remember what they're called at the moment - anyway, I can't get enough! I could chug a gallon!
Cute baby Ezra! Those yogurt things with puree - what a great idea?
