Reuse and recycle


I really wanted to buy Adeline a set of those neat cardboard box toys for stacking. But then I thought...I can make her own set of cardboard boxes! So back in December I started saving all of our cereal boxes, cookie boxes, cracker boxes, etc. I doubled up and stuffed one box into another to ensure sturdiness. And wouldn't you know -- she loves playing with them. I was a little shocked at how much boxed/processed foods we had eaten in the last five months. And I'm also shocked that no where in Helena with let you recycle "shiny" cardboard. I know a place in Butte that will take the boxes, so till our next trip to Butte, Adeline gets to keep playing with the recyclables.

p.s. I just love her entrance and exit in this video
