Logandale in the Summer

4th of July

April things

Over the weekend Ember had her first Tball game, we went swimming with cousins and celebrated Jayson's 31st birthday!!

Also Jayson got a new truck... I need to take a picture of that!

The kids are still loving the Art hub drawings. I love how much they all love art. Im also getting Ember to write out our grocery list from now on, she does a pretty great job.

Ember also decided she is in love with The Greatest Showman... Me to babe, me to. The sound track is on repeat repeat repeat....

Aiden woke up at 5am with me this particular morning. So an afternoon nap was a must.

Colors

The past two weeks we have been working on colors with Aiden. So many fun books and crafts!

Earth Days

Ember danced at the Earth Days festival this year. They gave out free stuffed animals to all the kids and they learned about recycling, reusing and reducing. It also inspired us to come home and do a few art projects while talking about our Earth and how to care for it!

Siblings

"Older siblings... the only people who will pick on you for their own entertainment and beat up anyone else who tries." 

Easter egg hunt

We ended up missing the City egg hunt so the Easter Bunny made sure to stop by our house and leave some eggs and goodies for the three cuties. Of course lots of candy, chalk, church clothes and stuffed bunnies. We played Easter egg games and ate lots of watermelon.

Red, Apples, Firetrucks

A little of what the kids have been learning.

Aiden- the color red, letter A,1,2,3, sorting, fine motor skills.
Ember- writing red in sentences. Counting apples, parts of an apple, addition using apples, ladybug facts.
Ty- writing red in cursive, cursive basic sentences, parts of an apple, ladybug facts and reading.

They all overlapped a bit in each area but I tried to push them to their specific level. Ty and Ember love helping Aiden learn and its increasing their personal love for learning as well. Plus ART!

The Ants go marching one by one

I think Aiden is starting to love bugs even more then Ty if that's possible!

They all loved singing and marching to "The Ants go marching one by one"
I read them Hey Little Ant and Embers response was so hilarious and sad. Ty said he wouldn't squish the Ant. Ember thought on it for a bit and said she would definitely squish it because they have stung her before and it hurt really bad.... in her defense she was stung by a lot on Aidens first birthday and it left a pretty big emotional scare for her. 

Ant hike

My adventure man took us out on a hike over Spring break to check out the Ants around Kanab and get some much needed sunshine.

We sure found a lot of Ants. 

Ember taking field notes.

Ty has his adventure pose down!!!!
