G Day






G day was yesterday. Sorry i am a day behind. I got distracted yesterday looking for new playground things online. G day was kindof low key. We ate grapes and made a groovy grade craft. Then we made Giraffes and watched diego saves the gorilla. Pretty calm day! Poor Kolton no matter how hard he tries.. he still looks silly in all his pictures :)

Letter F With Nikki


Today was letter F day. Special thanks to Nikki for babysitting and doing the letter F with the kids. I got home and Kolton said, "Mommy we did lots of activities today" He was so excited to show me his book and all the things he did with Nikki. They had French toast and fruit salad for breakfast, of course Kolton had to sing the fruit salad, yummy yummy song. They played with the farm and sang Old MacDonald and decorated their letters. Fish sticks and fish crackers were even ready for lunch when i got home.
Thanks Nikki they had lots of fun. Nikki does not disappoint, she even tooks pictures for me so i could see what they did and add them to the blog.




THANKS NIKKI!!





Happy Birthday Kolton!!

Here is a few picture's from Kolton's birthday. I hope to have some video of his birthday up soon as well. For those of you that couldnt make it Kolton's Birthday was at Bedford splash water park. He had so much fun and didnt want to leave. It was a very hot day, but the water definately helped. Thanks for all of our friends and family for making Kolton's 3rd birthday so much fun. Sorry he wouldnt open his presents at the party he was having way too much fun playing in the water. He barely had a bite of cake. I had to make him come blow out the candles. Thanks again to Nikki and Alexa for watching the kids for us. Kevin and I barely saw our kids at the party we were so busy. Thanks for all the gifts. We are beginning to explore them. I think Kolton already has a few favorites and Karley has already picked a favorite as well. We cant get her to put down the Diego car from Aunt Te Te.

Letters D and E

Unfortunately D day was rain day and we didnt get to do all the things we had planned because it was pouring. But daddy was nice enough to go get us donuts in the morning for breakfast. It rained too much for us to have lunch with daddy as well.


By the afternoon it was nicer and we got to have our dinosaur dirt snack and dig in our "dirt" (oreo pudding) until we found our dinosaur. Kolton wasnt sure he really wanted to eat it, but Karley dug right in! Kolton reluctantly decided to give it a try after Karley ate hers.
Then we went outside to rescue the dinosaurs from the sand. This time Kolton was very into it, but Karley did not want to play. She wanted to go down the slide and swim in the pool.
E is for excellent memory. We were supposed to wait until Monday to do E day. I told Kolton we were going to get ready for his birthday party today, but he reminded me that the sun went down and came back up and that made it a new day so it was E day. We ate eggs and made elephants and went to the mall with Matthew. Kolton was annoyed that Mall and Matthew didnt start with E, but he had fun anyway!

C is for Chick-fil-a and castle park
















Today is C day. Kolton barely gets out of bed in the morning before he reminds me what letter it is today and asks me what we are going to eat that starts with C and what we are going to put on our letter C and hang them up so daddy can see them. Unfortunately i couldnt think of a healthy breakfast item that started with C (i should have bought some captain crunch cereal) instead we arraged our strawberries to look like a C (Kolton's idea of course) Today we went to chick-fil-a with laura and austin. Thanks to my crazy children Austin might be an only child. :) Then we went to the castle park and make caterpillars.

B is for Bonkers and Beach Party
















Today is letter B day. It wasnt enough that we had Blueberries and Blueberry muffins for breakfast, we also had to make them into the shape of a Capital B first and then a lower case B second. I think Kolton should be a curriculum writer. He doesnt even let me do what i have planned. He changes up my activities. Here are some pics of our trip to Bonkers and our Beach Party!

A is for Apple


Our fun summer has begun. I am creating a monster! kolton wants to be entertained every second of the day with things that start with today's letter. I forgot how much work it was to be a fun preschool teacher. For letter A day we made pancakes in the shape of an A, ate apple smiles and ants on a log for snack. Painted with apples and sang the Ants go marching along with many other A activites. Kolton can also write the letter A. He says, Big stick Big stick little stick! Karley walks around saying it too, but she cant write it yet :)
