Thursday

Thursday already! Today, Addy napped this morning which allowed us to be busy busy! First, we made shoes for Pete the Cat and then we used foam stickers to put our names on pumpkins to hang up and last we made rakes to hang up as well! It was nice to get a few projects done before heading outside to let them run off some energy!

Wednesday...



Today, we learned about the letter Ee and made cute elephants. It was tricky coming up with a few Ee words:)

Otherwise, we enjoyed our time outside... they thought it would be cool to climb inside the center of the tile rolls, so we each had to take a turn!

Tuesday



We started our Pete The Cat week today! I feel like I've missed out not knowing that this book was out there. I think it's a wonderful book to teach the kiddos colors... so that's what we are going to focus on this week but it also has a neat point to the story- no matter what you step in, keep walking along and singing your song! Today, we started on making up our Pete the Cat book and we also made a Pete the Cat with red, brown, white and blue shoes.

B: pancakes, banana
L: spaghetti hotdish, lettuce salad, peaches

Fabulous Friday!


We put the Farmer's Marker away today and got out the hair stuff. They have had more fun playing with it, but we seem to have the problem that everyone wants to be the "cutter" and no one wants to have their hair done!

We also practiced our math with sorting and graphing apples.

B: donuts, banana
L: dino chicken nuggets, potato wedges, grapes
S: rice krispy bars

REMINDER-- WE ARE GOING TO HOLMBERG ORCHARD ON MONDAY!

I picked up quite a few books from the library last night!




We were BUSY BUSY BUSY today!

Started on our apple orchard shirts (I thought they were going to be orange for pumpkins-- but they turned red- so we will turn them into apples. Just need to put a worm on the back!)

Toady, the big kids didn't have school... so we enjoyed their company! We also celebrated Brooklyn's 1st birthday! One of her packages was some bubbles for the bath tub, the kids had more fun sticking them to the walls or stacking them on top of each other!

Thursday

We sorted gummy bears by colors and then made patterns with them. I'm surprised they lasted as long on the table as they did without being popped into their mouths!!!

 
We also finished up our apples from Tuesday, worked on our cutting skills by cutting a apple puzzle and practiced writing our names before going outside! I should mention, we were without water this morning, so if you hear about it! Yes, it's true!

Addy's first day of daycare picture from yesterday afternoon!

 
This morning, they kept busy playing with the coupe car and fire truck inside... who knew how much fun they would have with them indoors! Then, we were busy busy for circle time, we made an apple tree with our hand/arm print and then added green leaves and 2 apples to look at us along with the poem. Then we painted a paper plate red for something that we are going to do on Thursday and lastly they painted. Then we picked up and went out to play in the wind!

Last week wasn't going fast enough and this week can slow down!!!

For part of Brooklyn's birthday present, Mike plans to finish the boat... for now, it's just the floor. Yesterday, no one played in it! Today, we put chairs in there and they had a blast.

We moved the kitchen up to the sidewalk and added some new food!
