what we did today...

well its been about 4 months since i started working here and its been good. we added another day of work, and we have been going out more and more...but today we just hung out at home after a nice morning walk.
here is what our walk looked like...

it started when Abbie said blue sky as we walked out the garage, and it led to...
seeing how many colors we could find...here we found some green leaves, which they got to touch for some texture in their too...

We saw the grass because Abbie repeats grass all the way to the park half the time so we took time to stop and look at the GREEN grass....

Henry enjoys counting and will count to five once in a while so we stopped at the mailboxes to count, to which Abbie kept saying "more, more"


we picked some YELLOW flowers
and we saw some black, blue and white cars.
overall it was a fun little walk that got us outside for some fresh air and we entertained ourselves with colors and numbers......then it was back home for all of this....
we played with chalk....I outlined them....we did it once last week and today Abbie came up to me after a few minutes of drawing by herself and said "Abbie" and so she laid down right there and we traced her again, she stood up and again said "Abbie". it was fun...we did Henry too....

who knew playing with corks could be so much fun. They have a few jars of corks and somehow it entertains the kids for a long time. you dumb them out on the floor and they enjoy putting them back in the jar. Henry will count them, Abbie sees whats on them and stands them up which I think is pretty good considering some of them are not very flat.....
Henry got a turn too...
we played in the sprinklers...
it didn't get much past them putting their hands in it today...

we played with bubbles...
sometimes its more fun to put your hands in the bubbles than to put the wand in and actually make bubbles

Henry made some bubbles too...

that was our day...it has been fun. they ate a good lunch, and then went down for a slgihtly early nap. it was a fun busy, relaxing day...oh ya we colored for a little bit to. to which Henry said every letter in his name when I pointed to it...he is doing so good with his letters, he seems to love them which I am really looking forward to.
