Smart days

The kids have been having serious smart bursts lately. Eve has been doing a lot with letters and sounds, taking a real interest in learning them. Lex has been rediscovering games he hasn’t played in awhile and doing some great drawings. They amaze me daily!

Word whammer

Eve has been spending some serious time with the Word Whammer lately. She's really getting in to letters and sounds.

Sometimes she even lets Lex help.

White board

Lex has been doing a ton of drawing on the Doodle Pro and white board lately. I wish he would draw on paper so I could save it, but probably it's better to save it as photo anyway. Here he drew a house on the top and a"Map of the Earth" on the bottom.

Silly sentences

On Sunday the kids spent a ton of time in the living room, Lex playing games by himself and Eve doing puzzles. Alan was in there too, working on the computer. It was a quiet day.

Puzzle

Eve has been super into puzzles lately. She even does them over and over sometimes. She did this one four or five times before moving on to another one.

Silly sentences by Lex

Lex laughed and laughed and LAUGHED at the silly sentences he made. Then he asked if he could take a picture :)

A great structure

Eve picked out this weird craft thing from the craft store the other day. She kind of likes it, but Lex loves it. You dampen the little pieces and then press them together. Lex has been working on this structure for a few days now. He wants to build it to the ceiling.

My craft project. More on this later.

Eve

Raking the leaves:

This is a song that Eve learned in school. It’s so funny. Especially purple. I can post a transcript if necessary:

Playing firefighter. The blanket is her seatbelt and the flower is the steering wheel. I feel safer with Firefighter Eve protecting me!
