Having Fun Learning

 

Our Week Having Fun Learning Together!

Emily is 38 months old and Juliette is 9 months old

Emily got to wear her new ballet slippers to Ryleigh’s birthday party.  Emily had fun trying out different ballet moves and dancing all around!

Daddy’s friend had a very cool bowling birthday party and Emily got to bowl for the very first time.  She really enjoyed it even though her ball went really really really slow!

We baked Zucchini Muffins at Sarah’s house.  This was great practice following directions as well as, mixing, pouring and scooping!

We made Umbrellas for the letter Uu, I can’t believe we are almost finished with our Alphabet books.  They look so cute!!

Emily enjoyed checking out her beans every day so far.  They have sprouted and even have their first 2 leaves already!  Hopefully we will be able to plant them in the garden soon.

Emily worked on this cut and paste sorting activity that I made for her.  She loves cutting out the different pictures and gluing them in the correct spot.

I made Emily a green tutu to so that she could practice her ballet moves and have fun dancing around the house.  She loved it so  much she insisted on wearing it to Aunt Jennifer’s house for dinner!!

Emily made a paper plate ladybug after reading I Love Bugs! for our stART project this week.

We planted some cucumber and zinnia seeds since it has been so nice out this week.  Emily liked poking the hole for the seeds to go in.

IMG_3376  I was working on teaching Emily how to pump on the swing so that we won’t need to push her all the time.  She said she would rather we push her so she didn’t really try very hard to learn how.

We have been doing a shape theme for Art Group, this week was squares so we made Popsicle Stick Frames for Mother’s Day too!  The girls had a great time and they came out so cute.

While Emily was at Grandma’s they played this cute domino game my mom had from discovery toys.  Emily totally understood how to play and she got so excited when she could make a good match!

Juliette loves the dolphin swing.  She usually holds on to the yellow and giggles as she is swinging!

Juliette is old enough for the library class now.  We sing songs together, read a book and then get to play with all the fun toys that they have.  Here she is talking on a pretend phone (actually it is a plastic piece of mail,  she is just using her imagination, maybe I talk on the phone way to much!!)

Playtime with Braeden, they both got into the music bin!

Juliette is oblivious to the photo shoot going on around her, finger castanets are much more interesting!

Juliette looks adorable in Emily’s tutu, she loved feeling the tulle between her fingers!!

My little climbing girl, she goes directly for the stairs as soon as I put her on the floor!

Me and my cutie pie, I was blowing into her hair and it made us both giggle!!

Juliette also spends a lot of time playing in the kitchen set, she is always busy dumping the buckets of food and  carrying things around with her!

Juliette showing her friend how to walk around the play pen!  She was having so much fun with her :0)
