The 1st week of school.


It's been an exciting first week of school!

We've painted


Roo has done some math.

Phia has done lots of filling and pouring.

Phia has been asking to sit on the potty and do "pee-pees." Nothing happens and it's usually after the fact, but still it's a step. Plus she looks so darn cute sitting there!

We've done lots of coloring.

and eating!


On Wednesday, Roo even lost her first front tooth!

Phia has practiced dressing herself.

Wearing 3 diapers and shoes was her outfit of choice this day. 

There has been lots of snuggling.


We've learned a bit about the solar system in science. 
In history, Roo is learning about ancient Americans and how they lived. So far, her favorite tidbit is that the Wampanoag tribe lived in wigwams. She thinks that hilarious to say. She also loves telling people how the Native Americans probably came across the Bering Strait, which used to join Russia and Alaska, to get to North America.

We've spent lots of time playing and exploring in the backyard.





 Roo has begun learning cursive and is quite good at it!

We've spent the afternoons in the little blue pool.


We've had a little down time.

and read lots of books!

Phia has thrown lots of stuff away.

So far it has been a great start to school and we can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store for all of us!

Shannon, Phia is clearly going to be a trend setter. And Roo asked to learn cursive so we are giving it a go!
