Week of September 1st

Well, I haven't had time to post for a while so I thought I would get caught up. Last week was a fun but busy week. We didn't have school on Monday due to Labor Day and Tuesday we had school in the afternoon because Travis was home and we had some important things to get done. That kind of threw us out of our routine and it was kind of hard to get back into the groove for the rest of the week. We still had fun however. We worked on shapes. The boys made some fun shapes out of flour and water. i wish I had cookie cutters that were shapes but I did not. Because of that most of them just ended up looking like big blobs, but that is ok. We let them dry and the boys painted them the next day. They were so impatient while waiting for the to dry. They were really excited to paint them.





We also played a twister sort of game with different colored shapes and I told the boys to put their hands and feet on the shapes that I told them to. I got them really twisted up until they fell over. That was a lot of fun! Yes Simon is in his underware. He usually is dressed for school, but I think he had just gone to the bathroom.

We also talked about adoption and read letters from their birthmoms. We talked about when they were born and how much we love them and are glad to have them in our family. Our value of the week was relationships and we talked about how important relationships are and that we need to take care of them. We acted out proper ways to treat people. We have also been working on our ABC books. They will probably take us the next few weeks to finish up. We are just cutting and pasting pictures out of magizines that start with the different letters of the alphebet.
