After studying plants for the last few weeks, it's time to move on to something new. I came across a bunch of cute bird crafts and this weeks focus will be all about birds! Since the littles have been around baby chicks a lot, I am excited to reinforce the tiny bit of the birds life cycle that they know about.
Today we started out with the letter "N" to incorporate some preschool letter recognition for Hyrum (honestly, he knows most of his letters already thanks to his stellar big sister). But they both had fun gluing and writing!
After that we did up a simple homemade bird feeder for the backyard. Later this week I plan to make up some toilet paper roll binoculars so that we can do some bird watching.
I am beyond excited about the leaves popping out on the trees! The grass gets greener every day and we are enjoying the blue sky and sunshine!
While Joseph and Finley were napping we whipped up a batch of chocolate chip cookies. It's always fun baking with these two! Camilla loves to crack the eggs and grab ingredients. We've made cookies together so many times that she can basically list off the things we need.
I enjoyed some post nap cuddles with Joe while he munched on a couple cookies. Even though we didn't get much cleaning done, I'm feeling accomplished because we have played and laughed together today! I am loving the extra "please" and "thank-you's" I've been getting! There is nothing better than when they wrap their little arms around my neck spontaneously! I am pretty sure a little extra love and time can cure almost anything.
