Buzz Pumpkin and Grandpa's Birthday





Happy birthday to Grandpa!

Uncle Mikey helped me paint an awesome Buzz Lightyear pumpkin face after lunch.

Then we had dessert and sang Happy Birthday to Grandpa. Grandma made the special allergy free cupcakes for me too!

Before going to Jesus' house, we watched Grandpa open his presents.

Painting Pumpkin Cups with Rice on Top






We painted pumpkin cups with Mommy last week too!

We took our red and yellow paints and mixed them with glue. Then we painted half the cup red, and half yellow.

We put another cup on top and twisted it so the colors would mix to make orange!

Then we pasted on the pieces of the happy pumpkin face.

We added a new cup to the top and had rice on top. Now we can shake them around and have fun!

Spiders, Friendly Ghosts, and Mr. Reader!






Last week we made spiders from dessert plates, chalk, and our hand prints. :)

We also made friendly ghosts with our footprints and some foam! :)

We use Mr. Reader to help us read from Left to Right across the page. Here's Abby using her Mr. Reader to help her read across the calendar! :)

More Library Time!




Last week, it was Fire Prevention time at the Library, so the firemen came with the truck. Here's Abby on the truck!

Here we are reading books from our basket in the car. Mommy didn't even turn the car on yet...and the books were out. YAY! We love reading!!

Leaf Man





After reading Leaf Man, we went out on a leaf hunt on campus. We picked up leaves of different sizes, colors, and shapes.

Then we came back and glued them onto a piece of paper to make our own, "Leaf Man".

Rainbow Stew!






We made rainbow stew back in September too! We took cornstarch, sugar, and water and mixed it up to a boil. Then we added food coloring and let it cool.

Finally, we addded them to small bags.

What a great sensory project! We can even mix the colors...a little read and a little yellow can mix to make orange!

Even Max got to get in for a few minutes on the fun! :)

Story Time at the Lockport Library!




Here we are singing and dancing with our teacher at the Lockport Library.

Anthony's a bit shy each week to get his sticker... :)
