The kids spent the afternoon in the garage and opened the kinetic sand box.
They worked together to make a layer cake with decorations too.
Rocket House
The kids did some drawing at lunch today and Peanut made a very elaborate rocket house.
It has lots of floors, grabbers outside, and Mama gets to relax.
Weekend
I guess kids enjoy weekends too. Peanut wrote “We like the weekend. There is no school.”
Tiny Trees
We opted for tiny Christmas trees this year. The kids still got to do some decorating and they turned out really cute!
We added some tiny lights to make them extra festive.
Mama also put lights up outside and inside the house. We are ready for the holidays!
Hot Pot
Little Bruce Lee
Peanut received his new yellow-black belt today. Way to go!
He’s like our very own Little Bruce Lee.
Donut and Airplanes
Yai bought the kids donuts this morning. These guys love sprinkle donuts.
Janie later showed the rest of the kids how to make paper airplanes.
Later that afternoon, we hopped back on the plane and headed back to Alameda. These kids were exhausted and both fell asleep on the way up.
Turkey Cookies
The kids decorated turkey cookies today! The icing was pretty thick but they managed to get the job done.
Here’s Janie’s completed cookie!
Nature Walk and Whine
We went back to El Dorado Park this morning for their Nature Center Trail. It started out great with lots of enthusiasm and curiosity.
Then slowly the boy started to get tired and hungry and it was all downhill from there.
There was a lot of cajoling and negotiating for the latter half of the walk. Peanut was so unhappy and said he “couldn’t walk anymore”. *sigh*
He fell asleep just minutes after getting back in the car so maybe he really was tired. We’re gonna have to build up his walking muscles and bring a snack next time.
Fun with Boxes
These two monkeys had a fun time playing in these boxes tonight.
