Photos From the Week

We made it to the library! We had planned on going for a nature walk after, but I could tell it was about to rain. So I told the kids to go run in the woods by the library real quick. No trails, just thorns, lol. We did see some rabbits though.
We finally got our shell encyclopedia and were able to identify our shells.
And we made it to the Swap Shop at the zoo to trade them in!

It poured all day Wednesday.
Our t.v. watching was down considerably this week! It worked out wonderfully. When I first told the girls no morning cartoons they quickly created a game where they pretended to watch t.v. Poor souls. However, I will say that their attention spans improved dramatically as far as listening to longer stories goes. So happy!
The t.v. watching game proved to be quite boring and fort building commenced. Taven is never allowed in the forts/palaces/tents, etc. 
We ate healthy! With added olive oil, butter, and salt, of course.


 Well I did go out to eat Chinese Wednesday with my parents and my husband brought home takeout on Friday. But check out my fortunes!
When the weather cleared, we got outside.
 I finally let Naia open up the play dough kit she received for her birthday (in October).
We melted crayons and made some new Texas ones!

See you next week!

  2. Sounds like a wonderful week, in spite of the rain! Are those brussels sprouts? My kids will eat tons of brussels sprouts as long as they are sauteed in garlic butter! :-) That last photo cracked me up! Love it!
