Sunny Days and School Time

Interspersed with some serious thunderstorms and rainy days, we have had some beautiful sunshiney spring days around here lately. So far this June has not been nearly as hot as usual, and I am loving it!  Caroline LOVES to be outside, so I took a couple pictures of her smiley self the other day.  My friend Christy made this little shirt for Anna Kate to wear and now it fits Caroline perfectly...and seriously, the flip-flops on those baby feet?  Too cute for words!

 During Caroline's morning nap each day, Anna Kate always wants to do "School Time".  We haven't started any structured preschool curriculum or anything, but I want her to get used to the idea of having scheduled learning time that is actually fun!  So we read together, work on one of her preschool activity bags, color, work in a workbook, or practice letters on her magnadoodle.  The magnadoodle was the activity of choice this morning and we worked hard on learning to write the letter A.  Here is Anna Kate, proud of her accomplishment!

She's been reciting, "Up, down, and cross it," all morning!
