Learning As We Go

The last two weeks have been very busy, as will the next few weeks. These pictures were taken 2 weeks ago during another beautiful week outside learning and playing. My wonderful husband also bought me a netbook so I am learning how to use it and post pictures from it so some of the pictures may be a lot bigger then they usually are, sorry.

I am still taking Monday's off to recoop from the weekend but Tuesday we got out the puzzles, chalk board and crayons. Jackson is now trying to make smiley faces, you can sometimes pick out where the eyes, mouth and nose are at.

Wednesday we went to the Aquarium for Toddler Time. I wasn't sure if he would do the class or not since he really wanted to see the fish and not do a craft. After looking at fish for about an hour he decided he wanted to make a craft to show the sting rays. We made a star fish and then the volunteers read him a book about them. We then watched the divers swim with the fish and ended the visit with a picninc outside. After the aquarium we stopped at the beach and picked up seashells to count and then of course throw. We ended the day on the swing set.

Thursday we were at my sister's house watching her three kids so we played outside almost all day. We talked about colors, rode bikes, counted leaves and practiced taking turns.

Friday we walked to the park and played for about an hour. He had a blast counting to 5 and then going down the slide.

Monday is dance day and we also went to Chickfila to play on the playground.

Jackson has been complaining a lot about his right eye hurting so on Tuesday we went to the eye doctor where we found out that he needs glasses. After that adventure we went to the Aquarium and then played on the beach.

Wednesday we went to the park and played with some other kids around his age and also on the teeter totter

Thursday we went and picked out his eyeglasses, they will here in 2-3 weeks, and then spent the night with his Aunt and cousins.

Friday was supposed to be a fun day with his cousins but he woke up sick so we went home and slept the rest of the day.

This coming week will be another fun week with a little more learning mixed in. We are easing back into school right now and since the weather is warming up will be doing a lot more learning at the park, beach and aquarium!
