Wednesday wonders!!! We LOVE this weather!☀️ We had fun with the kitchen toys this morning and we were stacking, stirring, cutting and we even tried tasting some of the foods!!!😳 After our morning snack, we made a rebus reader book about bubbles. Outdoor fun was had with running and playing. We enjoyed the bug toys and searching for our own real bugs! Of course, the balls were out for some silly outdoor fun, too! After lunch, we'll clean up and have some song and story time before calling it quits and letting our bodies rest.😴 I've still been working on revamping the playroom, the kids can't wait to be able to go in and play!! I have a feeling Corbin will help me during nap time today. It's off limits until it gets put back in order, but the wait will be worth it!

We started out rainy and cloudy, but the sun is trying to come through full force now! We did get outside this morning, before the really bad mugginess set in. The boys were all about the kittens today. The three younger kittens are starting to calm down a little and let us pet them. We enjoyed shooting baskets, playing with the army toys and having car races! When we were inside, we had fun with the foam blocks, dollhouse, dancing and singing. We loved having the Frozen CD playing!🎶 We read books about opposites and about how sunflowers grow.🌻 For lunch, we ate meatballs, corn and fresh pears. Yum!
Thursday-Weekly, Monthly and Bi-Monthly Payments Due at morning drop off time. Curriculum Fees start up for September and they are $20/child (you can add it to your payments). Monthly Wipe Supply is also due. We're having a low key Monday. We enjoyed our morning walk and we talked to the goats, calves and kittens! We also got to see the newborn kittens before she moved them on us! SO TINY!! We enjoyed indoor and outdoor play time. We explored with foam blocks, farm toys, musical instruments and the balls. We're back inside eating lunch and we'll be singing songs and reading books soon. Enjoy your Monday!
First week of school is under our belts! Our new normal for the next 9 months!😜Happy Friday! Even though the sun isn't shining, we're having a great day! After our morning trek with Corbin, we had free play with the big animals and the baby/doctor toys! Those babies were getting some extra special TLC today! After morning snack, we headed outside. A few sprinkles came down, but not enough to make us go inside. Before we knew it, it was time to clean up and go inside so we could get lunch ready. They squeal like crazy when they see the van pull up to drop Corbin off!😍 After lunch, we had Show and Tell. We had two books, a puppy on wheels, a moose and a train whistle today! The train whistle even helped us with a few songs!🎶 After story time, we headed off to bed! They are really getting the hang of nap time on their rest mats!😴 I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Tomorrow is Show and Tell Day! Free choice!Happy Thursday! Today was our first official "new normal" day! With that said, we'll be using tomorrow and next week to get our routines tweeked and worked out so that we can squeeze all of our fun and learning in! Once we have our schedules figured out, I will post it. We didn't go to the library today, simply because I'm still working on getting little ones to sit through three stories. Practice here is much easier (on me)! This age is "monkey see, monkey do", so until I have my monkeys ready, we'll just enjoy stories here.😉 I'm sure it won't be long and we'll be good to go again! We may switch story times and attend the toddler version (which I think is offered on Mondays). On to today-it was gorgeous outside! Cloudy, but still nice! We enjoyed our bus stop adventure and then had free time until morning snack. After snack, we went back outside to play! The cars and kittens were the big hit! We walked around the yard, too. Rylan was very curious about the chickens! Everyone was so excited to see Corbin come home from school and we enjoyed lunch together. I had some sleepy eyes during story time, so I knew nap time would be easy peasy!😴
Weekly payments due tomorrow morning. Today has been a happy/sad day! Corbin started AK (and loved it), but we have to say goodbye to Kaitlyn today, too. She will hopefully come back and play on no school days that are the same for Linn Mar and Prairie. The yard was VERY wet this morning, so we didn't get to play in the back yard. We did get outside and go for a walk though-we just stuck to the sidewalk and driveway though-we didn't want to get muddy. We're hoping it will be a lot drier after nap time. We are all getting the idea of story time down! Three books is a long time to sit some days, but we are getting there!📚 The especially love it when we sing! 🎶 Enjoy the sunshine again today! ☀️
Tomorrow is Kaitlyn's last day here and it's Corbin's first day of AK. We had a great start to the first day of school! Harrison and Tori got off early and then after our special breakfast of Krispy Kreme donuts, yogurt and oranges, we headed down to the bus stop again so Corbin could meet Kay and give her a treat on the first day of school! After our morning bus routines, we enjoyed some free play inside before having a morning snack and heading outside. It is absolutely gorgeous outside and we loved the sunshine! The kids helped pick tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. Corbin even gave the chickens some of the split tomatoes! They LOVED the fresh garden treat! While we were outside, we worked on Ring Around The Rosie! Lots of giggles when we "all fall down"!😂 Everyone went down for their naps without any issues after story time.😴 Enjoy the sunshine!☀️
Rylan starts on Monday!😄 End of Summer Bash!!! We started out with two extra kiddos. Cassidy and Trevor were here for the night/day with Tori and Harrison. We started off our morning with pancake kabobs! We had a great morning playing, both inside and outside. It was really nice outside this morning and everyone was all about gymnastics! Charleigh and Graham had a pretty good kickball game going, too! We had a cookout for lunch with hot dogs, chips, pineapple and our jello pool cups! The plan was for water fun during nap time, but I think they are all ready to relax a little-we might watch a movie (if we can all agree on it)!😉 Enjoy the weekend and we'll see you all on Monday!
Tomorrow is our End Of Summer Bash! Thursday fun has happened inside and outside today! Free art drawings, free play time, bracelet making, sun catcher art, Lego mania, trio block building, tether ball tourney, monkey bar gymnastics and now-outdoor water fun for the older kids. Our three littles are napping and the others are staying cool with the sprinkler, pool and obstacle course fun! We have loved having Drew, Owen and Elsa back to play with! Tomorrow, Cassidy and Trevor (friends of Harrison and Tori) will be here for the day, we're having a sleepover tonight...on a full moon...yes...I am crazy!😜
Weekly Payments Due Tomorrow Morning. Friendsday Wednesday without the library this week! We had 10 kiddos here and they have ALL been playing so well together! Owen and Harrison have been buddied up all day. Tori and Elsa have been paired off. Kaitlyn and Corbin have loved having their buddy, Drew, back. And then the three littles are still doing a great job at playing and learning together! Ava is saying Graham now and Graham is saying both, Charleigh and Ava! Too cute! With so many feet around here today, we have been staying VERY busy! The morning rain delayed our morning outside play time, but we are making up for it now! While we were outside, the soccer ball, army toys and kittens were the "toys" of choice! :) Everyone ate a great lunch and the older kids have asked for a "Wednesday Flix" since Owen and Elsa won't be here on Friday. So, with their sweet pleas, we will be starting a movie at 2 this afternoon. I had pictures from yesterday afternoon's dance party in the backyard, but my phone app isn't working, so I'm entering my blog with the laptop-sorry, no photos today! Have a great afternoon and we're hoping all of the teachers enjoyed their first day back to school! :)
