We rarely have a boring day here! We started our fun with the cows getting out of the fence, which led us to be gate keepers while we waited for the bus. Thankfully, Thunder and Lightning were easy to get back into the pasture. Keeping them there was a different story. Heath had to go into town and get a new electric fencer. He then came back home and got it installed and working (with only one major shock-the kid's got to see Heath fall to his knees)! Oops! Once we knew the cows were secure, we were outside up until lunch time. The library gave us chairs and tables, so Heath brought those home for us, too! We will be in the works of adding a big kid sized chalk table to the back patio area! It will make for a great chalk table/activity table/lunch and snack table! We can't wait to get it built!! Since Heath was here most of the morning dealing with the farm-he just took the rest of the day off to finish mowing and get a few other projects done. We're trying not to blow away on the hill today-loving the warm breeze!

Bi-Monthly payments are due today. We've had a super Monday! We were busy making a Book Mobile for project time and we continued to read books about moms (we have a lot of them)! We've been outside playing ever since! It is just gorgeous outside! We love the sunshine and warm breezes! We'll be going inside to make lunch soon, but we are going to stay outside as long as we can!
A HUGE thank you for the Daycare Provider Appreciation Day gifts! The beautiful day was wonderful, but the extra sweet words made it perfect!💗 We finished up our gifts for mommies and then that was enough inside time-we lathered on the sunscreen, grabbed our hats and enjoyed the sunshine!☀️ We were outside right up until Corbin got home and then it was lunch and naps. We'll be sure to get right back outside after naps. Enjoy the beautiful weekend ahead! Happy Mother's Day to our mommies-enjoy your weekend with the littles!💗
Show and Tell tomorrow-free choice (something we can play with outside would be perfect)!!☀️ We sang to Mr. Sun enough that he decided to come out today!☀️ It was a gorgeous morning outside! Connor was here to play with us, too! Before going out-we focused on our faith lesson. We talked about our bibles and how bibles used to look long ago. We looked at a scroll and then we made one for ourselves.📜 Since it rained SO hard yesterday, the yard was still soggy wet. We took our toys to the driveway and played there instead. Ponies, chalk and ALL of the balls went down with us. We took some time and aired up all of the balls, too!⚽️🏀🏈🏐 We had to throw one away, but the rest are good to go! We'll definitely be getting back outside after naptime. We're enjoying chicken nuggets, green beans and bananas for lunch today! Weekly payments due tomorrow morning. Rainy day! We took full advantage of everyone being here and the stormy morning. We spent the majority of the morning working on our gifts for mommies!💗 We have to wait for them to dry and then I need to add some finishing details!! The kids just love their mommies (daddies, too-we are just focusing on mommies more this week)!😉 I MAY be in the barn at 4:30 today (it depends on what I hear back from Heath). If I'm not in here, H and T will be on duty until Heath gets home and can take over. I'm ready for school to be over so we can be done with the rush of events every. Single. Night!!😔 No pictures or crafts to send out today-they will go home on Friday!😃
Prompt pick up again tonight-TWO band concerts for us tonight!!😬 What a gorgeous day! We ran a quick errand to the bank this morning and then we were outside until lunch time! We live days of sunshine! ☀️ We played on the swing set, played with ALL of the different balls and we walked around the yard. We did a quick check on the Aronia berries, apples and raspberries! We had fun racing each other through the yard.🏃🏽♀️ We fixed lunch and everyone was looking pretty tired. Enjoy the afternoon!
A glance at our week- a pretty quiet one for daycare (I wish the same was true for our family)!😉 We were busy in the art department today, but it's a secret, we're working on gifts for moms!💗 We were busy with colors, markers, glue and flowers!! We had fun exploring some new things for Bennett (a swing, a jumperoo and a bouncy chair). They love all of the buttons and will be great helpers when Bennett comes here in the fall. Ms. Tracy came today and read books about animals. The kids did a felt story board and worked on retelling stories. I think with the extra nice weekend, the kids must have gotten a lot of outdoor play time-we definitely had some extra tires kiddos today. They were SO ready for naptime.😴
Claim your water bottle in the cubby closet-if you don't have one there, be sure to bring one in ASAP. With our super busy week and crazy weather-we absolutely by passed the library so we could just stay home and enjoy the beautiful day outside. It was SO beautiful outside. We had SO many toys out! Ponies, bracelets, football, basketball, jumpropes, golf set, bowling set, cars and the animals! It was a zoo outside-but we loved every minute of it! We stayed outside until we absolutely had to come inside and get lunch ready-I'm sure we'll be back outside right after our snack this afternoon! Have a great weekend and enjoy the beautiful weather!☀️ Grandma Betty and Papa Mike will be popping in this afternoon, after Harrison's Track and Field day is over. On Tuesday, we were layering on the clothes to stay warm and today we were layering on the sunscreen so we wouldn't burn! Gotta love Iowa weather! Thank you for sending kids prepared today. We were gone all morning and had a great time playing on the bleachers! Graham and Charleigh made sure to grab everyone's attention by playing catch with them. Of course, they stopped to cheer Harrison on every time he ran. We went for walks and they will definitely sleep well today!
Weekly payments are due tomorrow morning. We started our day with a special treat-Krispy Kreme donuts! We don't do that often, so it was a nice mid-week treat!🍩 The sun came out for a little bit this morning!☀️ We're back to cloudy skies again, but at least it's warmer outside!☁️ We worked on our Faith Lesson today. We sang bible songs and read our Faith Lesson book for the month. We also read the story, Hide and Seek. After calendar and circle time, we made bookmarks for our bibles. The kids work so hard during project time! After outside fun, we came inside and they played with the kitchen while I prepared lunch. It was a P day for lunch, pizza, pineapple and peas! Have a great afternoon! |
