Learning and Growing

January was filled with more learning and babies growing. We also celebrated our 100th day of school with cookies and a craft. Landon has recently taken the initiative to look at our lesson schedule for the day and gets to work on his own. That makes his teacher happy :)

 And then the oil spill!

What happens to his sandy beach and how does it all get cleaned up?

It's Going By Fast!

After our school Halloween Party last year, November and December just flew by. I kept taking pictures, but never got around to the blog. I have been reprimanded by the school's owner (AKA: My Handsome Husband) and have been "encouraged" to resume the blog ASAP. :)

So here are the last two months:

Our Halloween Party

 

 Complete with pizza and junk food.

 

 Peek-a-Boo!

 

 And Halloween decorations crafted by us!

 

Look out!

 

We had coloring pages...

 

"Which color to choose?"

 

Masterpiece

 

Here's our Yoda.

 

He held onto his bucket the entire evening.

Typical Morning:

 Happy girl Leila

 

 Smiles from Levi

 

 And Sgt. Shipwreck all ready to....work?

 Landon learned about perseverance in November....

 

 ......so did Levi :)

 

 "Is it good enough, Mrs. Gibb?"

 

 "Right here?"

 

Such a good helper!

 

Landon during reading time.

 Landon's first Paperbag Book Report.

 

Items inside the bag that represent something about the book.

During his oral book report he went over what each of the things represented.

Note for his teacher :)

 Creating Gifts for others:

 

Eating lunch in the car!

(Don't ask me why this is fun.)

 

Working with big brother:

 

 Levi learned to climb. Move over sis!

 

Leila and Blue playing on the floor.

 

Leilani learned to feed herself.

 

She also learned to put herself to sleep. Yay!

 

Landon decorated the kid tree,

complete with a train around the bottom.

 

Yay for Santa!

 

Christmas Eve PJs!

 

Christmas Break was filled will lots of play and presents.

 

PLAY TIME!

 

We were so grateful for all of our blessing in 2013

and are back to school again and excited to see what's in store!
