Letter c week

We didn't get to do too much last week. Naomi got sick so most of my attention was on her. Now Joseph is sick so yea... :) But I wanted to at least post what we did do. 

They really seem to enjoy doing crafts with me. I love watching them have fun!!

Not really much else to say so il leave it there :) 

Letter b week

We did quite a few fun things with the letter b this week. 

We did a balance beam! Christiana thought that was awesome. 

We also made a b box to find things in our toy room that started with the letter b.

Iv been organizing a few more things this week

Made Christiana a reading spot in her closet.

Started a music wall

We had so many magnets that I had to find something better than the fridge. So my sisternlaw gave me this idea to use large oil pans. :) works great. Project soon is cover them with light fabric so they look super cute. 

I managed to get Christiana to stay still long enough to accomplish French baud pig tails:) 

Ok il try to post more next week after we finish the letter c

Learning new stuff!!

I finally learned to French braid!!! Definitely need to keep practicing but not bad for a second try!

I even did mine!! So excited to discover I can do something with hair. Now I will try new things and see what we can do. 

I have started preschool with the kiddos. So this week we are learning the letter Aa. We do a craft, a color page and a game every day to help them learn the letter. My goal is to have them know the letter and what it says. Christiana already knows all of them, but it's a great review. Plus she is helping Joseph learn them!!

I will do my best to keep you updated on what we are doing :)

Christmas Eve

God is good! We are almost to the end of another calendar year and I just wanted to take some time to thank God for what He has done this year in my life. 

1. He gave us a new precious addition- Naomi

2. He has provided for all our financial struggles this year 

3. He has shown me to slow down a little and take time with Him and my little ones

4. He has grown Todd and I closer

5. He has provided all of our kids clothes this year... Amazing :)

6. He has given us many new faces in Sunday school

7. He has loved me unconditionally when I keep falling on my face over the same issues

8. He has provided me a friend in my sister in law that I can talk of spiritual things

9. He has helped me learn to cook chicken in all kinds of ways 

10. He has helped me lose quite a bit of weight since I had the baby. 

I could keep going but I will leave it there for now. :) why don't comment something you are thankful for.
