We will be learning about the letter I from Monday, July 7, 2014- Friday, July 11, 2014.

Monday, July 7: We will write the letter 'I' either on paper or on our chalkboard or outside. Whatever looks fun!

Tuesday, July 8- We are going to work on our 'I is for Igloo' crafts. Here is a link. The girls will love this craft-- especially eating the marshmallows LOL

Wednesday, July 9- We will make a trip to get ICE-cream! We will talk on the way there about how ICE cream starts with the letter I and we will talk about all of the yummy flavors there are out there!

Thursday, July 10- I am going to print an 'I' poem from HERE and we will circle all of the 'I's in the poem! Hopefully the girls will be interested in this fun activity!

Friday, July 11- We are going to have a letter I coloring day! I'm going to print off a page from HERE and we will color them sometime throughout the day :)

Incredible!

G-Week

Monday, June 23rd-- Make chocolate pudding, put it in a plastic bag, and make letter 'Gs' with it! This was an idea given to me by my 8th grade teacher on Facebook.. sounds fun and I think Tayler will love it.. hopefully Quinn will too!

Tuesday, June 24th-- Make a GREEN paper chain and hang it up in the play room!

Wednesday, June 25th-- We are going to eat GREEN BEANS too in honor of G WEEK! Tayler and Quinn love them, so I think everyone will enjoy this!

Thursday, June 26th-- We are going to the parade in our home town this evening and our task will be to point out all of the 'G' words we can find there! 

And Friday we did go Grocery Shopping, but I forgot to take pictures. Bad Mommy moment :(

Cheers to 'G'Week!

23 Weeks Pregnant!

We are 23 weeks pregnant from 07.02.2014-07.08-2014. I know I'm almost a week behind, but it has been a busy holiday weekend!  I hope everyone enjoyed family time-- we sure did!

This week, our little man is about 11.5" long and is weighing in at about 1.1pounds. I can definitely tell he's growing. I am feeling him well above my belly button now which is cool! He loves moving around at bedtime.. and I don't mind laying there feeling him kick for about 30-minutes or so. It's wonderful :) He's still not strong enough to wake me up though, haha! We'll get there soon ;)

At our check-up last week my poor doctor tried about 5 times to get his heart beat. He would get about two thumps and Lucas would kick. He couldn't get an accurate reading for the longest time-- poor fella! We have an ornery one on our hands LOL

I've been craving omelettes this week-- as a matter of fact, I just had one this morning! 2 eggs, cheese, green pepper, onion, sliced red potatoes, and hot sauce. PERFECT. Little man must adore it because he's going crazy in there today!

We have about 14-17 weeks to go.. if you want something to scare you even more... that's only 98-119 days! YIKES! Still only have a bag of clothes in his room.. oy!
