Letter L



We covered letter L this week and Alexis was excited to know she had the letter in her name!



We sang, danced and had fun with some nursery rhymes…





On Monday night Alexis got to join the cloverbud activity at the 4-H meeting since I was conducting the activity… we made silly face snacks using tortillas and fruits and vegetables! 





On Tuesday we did lollipop lacing, lollipop shape and color matching, and did a puzzle! 









Then we had fun leaping over our pretend logs!



Warmed up for a few days so we ventured outside to play!





On Wednesday Alexis had a play date with a friend so we did a brief ladybug lesson…





On Thursday we had more time in the morning so we traced, counted, made shapes and letters with our play sticks…











And played a memory game that had lots of lollipop and candy cards.



Later we visited Wamego park…



And Alexis made lemonade to go with her dinner night meal!





The school district canceled school on Friday due to COVID and not being able to get subs, so our lesson Friday was brief as well… we spent a lot of the day sorting and playing Legos which was a perfect way to end the week!



Stamping and scissor practice…



It was a cold weekend so we had lots of fun inside! Kieryn and Ronan’s first basketball games were canceled as well due to COVID reasons so we had fun baking, playing, and crafting instead! 

Until next time!

Busy Birthday Week!

We started the week with a birthday! Alexis turned 4 years old! The big kids didn't have school so we were able to have a relaxed morning and then play in the snow later with friends!













Kieryn and Ronan have started basketball practices, no pictures of Kieryn yet...





It was very cold on a few mornings so we dug out the bouncy house for a change of pace...



electronic pow-wow one night...



We had several different doctor and dentist appointments this past week so we held off starting another letter... but we had fun with all the new Christmas and birthday toys!

Then on Sunday we had fun celebrating Alexis with her friends from 1-3pm and then with my family in the evening for dinner and games... and of course, more cake and ice cream! 





















She had a VERY fun week! It's hard to believe she's 4 years old... we love her so much!



Uncle Travis even got to blow out some candles! His birthday is next Sunday, but it was fun to celebrate him too! AND, Kieryn's 1/2 birthday was on Sunday so she's officially 10 1/2... that's crazy!



Until next time!!

And A Happy New Year!



It wasn’t until about Thursday that everyone was feeling better. Lots of coughs, congestion, and tummy troubles… and a negative COVID test…but once feeling better, we had fun playing with all the Christmas gifts…





We had a family fun night to ring in the new year… yummy snacks, sparkling drinks, games, and a dance party to count down to 10pm 😉.









The first day of the new year brought a fun surprise!!













Alexis had the idea in the morning to set out clean buckets to collect some snow for snow cones! They were delicious!!







Happy 2022!!
