File Folder Games

The last two evenings before dinner I have given Caden a File Folder game to play with.  As you all may know right before dinner the house begins to get very loud and you are trying to organize dinner.  The idea came from this awesome blog.  Caden gets so proud of himself when he completes it.  There are all different types of File Folder games but the ones I made are matching.  Color matching and picture matching.  He does really well on the picture matching but some of the colors he needs a little help.  (In this picture it is not dinner time, I took it this morning just so I can get a picture.  It is too crazy before dinner to take pictures lol)

Zoo

It was a beautiful day so off we went to the Zoo with our friends.  We had such a great time!!!  The kids really enjoyed themselves.  I thought for sure that we would have a good nap when we got home.  I don't know if this happens to every other Mom, but my kids fell asleep right when we pulled out of the Zoo.  When we got home 3o minutes later they were up and not a chance of them falling back asleep.
