Zoo with Beth and Brennen

A few weeks ago, Beth and Brennen were in town.  We went to the zoo together and even though it was super super super cold, we had a great time. 

Saying hi to the monkeys.


Checking out the orangutans. 

Bears!

Galloping with Aunt Beth




We loved checking out the giraffes. 
The elephants were getting a bath.









Lions!  Amazing how close we were to the big cats.

















Later that night, the boys played cars and trains together.






K Week

A few weeks ago, we worked on the letter K!

K is for kick.




We dropped the mail off on our morning walk.
We played with our shape puzzles and discovered that k is for kite.
Always fun to play in the tent.
We made K's with our goldfish.
We painted K's with our sponge blocks.
I asked Tater to smile and this is what I got. 
Doing a little dancing.

J was being the teacher and going over the animal flashcards with Tater. 
K is for koala and kangaroo.
K is for keys.
K is for kisses.
I love it when the hold hands while we're walking.  Such a blessing. 
Soaking up some sunshine.


The next morning, Tater insisted on wearing J's socks. 
Poor B was doing some major teething that day. 

Finding the K in our Elmo book.
K is for kitchen.
Playing in the tent.
They love to draw together.
K is for kind, so we learned this verse. 

That afternoon, Tater and I sat in a 6 mile backup on our way home.  He didn't mind too much and did lots of reading 
Making a K with our lacing beads.
Finding the K magnet.
Tater is not afraid to play with dolls.  He's going to make a great daddy someday.
