It was so great! So happy! It's so rare these days that my kids have become completely fascinated by it.
We practiced some math using money magnets we made.
We bartered a bit as well.
I received some fabric in the mail! Holy Cow!
We picked up the best raw milk over at Gramen Farm. I also bought some Kombucha to cleanse. I don't really do that sort of thing, but I kind of feel like I need to.
We made it to the public library's annual children's book sale.
I don't know why I didn't really catch on to this before, but Eaden likes nonfiction. She loves animal and earth science, but not physical science...which kind of explains why she wasn't into the children's museum. I would always get a bit frustrated when Eaden wouldn't listen to me read for long, but now I realize I was always reading fiction (as in picture books). Naia, on the other hand, listens forever....to anything. I love how kids are so different and all have such unique personalities.
We learned a little about geography and maps, so I decided to make a treasure map. When the girls found it they thought it was either Santa or pirates that left it.
The treasure was a Famous Texas Women paper doll book to add to our growing collection.
My Dad use to always tell me about Ima Hogg and how her Dad didn't want children and that's why he named her Ima. He also said she had a sister named Ura. None of this is true of course. Anyway, I can't believe my kids actually have an Ima Hogg paper doll, lol.
I caught my sweet boy feeding his baby.
My husband said he was wiping his baby's bottom earlier today while I was gone.
The girls learned about scales and made some snake collages (they cannot get enough of cutting and gluing).
I taught the girls how to play jacks. Eaden throws the ball up in the air while Naia grabs all of the jacks.

On Sunday, we headed over to my parents again for some Texans football. The kids explored the backyard and caught plenty of creatures with the help of their cousin.
LOVE the lion fabric and can't wait to see what you do with it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a busy, fun-filled week you all had! Wonderful times!
ReplyDeleteOur days really aren't that busy. I just take a lot of pictures, lol. I'm actually thinking about cutting back...on the picture taking. It's an addiction.
ReplyDeletewe had rain too, but ours just never stopped! Hooray to your rain day!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got some rain, we had a little too much these days. I love the creatures that they found in the yard, so brave!!
ReplyDelete(I'm not anonymous, really) Your photos are wonderfull! Don't cut back, your kids are going to love looking at them when they are older. Do you have a photo account like Flickr? If not, you need one for all of those photos that you don't want in your blog but still want to have access to. Your babies are dolls! DahnStarr
