We played with the mosaics set.
We played outside and did all the usual things - climb, jump, ride riding toys, slide, talk about the world around us.
At craft time we made a dinosaur (letter Dd).




Here he's showing off the dinosaurs he made yesterday and today.


We listened to instrumental music and some music on the 80's station while we cleaned the living room.
We played memory and talked about the animals on the cards.

This evening all three kids went to the Wednesday evening children's program at church. This is the first year Michael is old enough to go and he's loving it. Last year he got upset and cried every Wednesday evening when Doug and the other kids left and he had to stay home. I'm so happy for him (and me) that he gets to go this year.
