I forgot to mention that yesterday we pulled out each of their baby books and looked at cute pictures and milestones for each of them. We also read a story for each of them that had a character with their name in it. Today we continued our All About Me week by adding two more pages to our books. We did a page of measurements and facts and a page of Favorites (or opinions). On the fact page, we measured their height and weight, wrote down their eye color and hair color, put their birthday as well as the age they are right now, and put their clothing size and shoe size. On the Favorites page we listed their favorite color, toy, book, thing to do, place to visit, and food. After we filled out our books for today, they went and got the favorite book they had listed and we read those together. Then we had a fun time playing blocks and building and sorting by color and making tall towers. We did some puzzles, Rachel did some math, Ford drew a landscape, and Ruby colored. We made it to story time today with Mr. Jason where we heard two great stories. One was about a garden and after the story, we planted tomato seeds. I have no idea if anything will come of those seeds, but we'll see...
Also, I should note that yesterday at Vanessa's house Rachel found a snail which she is so excited about. She had a pet snail last year which she found on April 30, so she thought it was crazy that she found one on April 29! I hope this snail lasts as long as Sally. We eventually let Sally go because we were afraid she had missed her family. At first Rachel thought this snail could be Sally, but I think she's finally realized it's not.
