The kids had such a great decorating the Gingerbreat Train that Aunt Jill bought Caden for his 3rd birthday. I placed the icing down and let them put the candy wherever they liked. It was so funny though....because I told them in the beginning to not eat the candy wellllll they would accadentialllllyyyy touch the icing and just have to lick their fingers. It was soooo funny!
Everyday we have Mommy School Hannah wants me to put on her Tu Tu that her cousin Allison made her for her 1 year old birthday. If you are interested in buying one check out her site.

Hannah is finally getting into story time. She is actually setting through an entire book. Today she sat through 3. Yeah!!!
Story Time
This is Hannah's letter K worksheet.
We made reindeer hats.
This week we have been working on the letter K and it's sound.
I know I have not posted much about Mommy School lately but we still have been doing it. I just have not been taking as many pictures because I haven't had as much time due to Caden's birthday party and Christmas. So after the first of the year I hope to get things back in order, blogging wise!
- I still use our flip chart posters that you see on the easel. The work great for us. Our schedule is:
- First, we say a prayer which it the Our Father. I can not believe it, we have been saying it for about 2 weeks and Caden can say the prayer. It is broken up but he knows it in order.
- Then we do calendar time and weather time. I have a calendar to the left of the picture and the kids rotate between who puts the weather and calendar up.
- After weather and calendar time we sing songs. We start with the days of the week on you tube.
- We do a shaker song and then this month we have been doing Christmas songs. I pick the songs and then look them up on you tube so the kids can watch and sing the song.
- Then we have our lessons. It is basically the theme that is for the week and then an art activity.
- Next, is story time.
- Snack time, and then the kids play outside or inside depending on the weather.
Please let me know if you have any detailed questions that I missed, I will be happy to answer them.
A little house the kids got to go inside of....they loved it.
Caden really enjoyed pushing Hannah's stroller around the Festival of Lights. Made him feel important! lol
Hannah enjoyed it too because we let her walk around.
Both of the kids really enjoyed the Festival of Lights this year. We went last year too but the kids were smaller and this year they really enjoyed the lights more and enjoyed being able to walk around. It is defiantly much better than riding around in a car looking at the lights. Hannah has hated being in a car seat since she was an infant, she would defiantly not like looking at lights in the car. Mommy and Daddy wouldn't either!

You can't quit see what the kids are doing but they are sticking some type of Gel art on the windows. I got it from Target's dollar section. The texture feels like jello and it sticks to things. It was turkeys, leaves, and it said autumn.
In the lesson we were practicing the letter U. This is Hannah's picture.:)
This is Caden's letter U.
This is our friends Jessica's letter U.
Then we made patterns. This came from
The Itty-Bitty Bookworm.
We also read 10 Fat Turkeys.
This is Caden's pattern. He saw Jessica write her name so he decided to write his. He then cut out the bees and turkeys. Then I told them to glue the pattern of turkey, bee, turkey, bee ect.
Here is Jessica's.
I printed out this Turkey worksheet from
first schools and had the kids trace the letter T and glue feathers on the turkey. This is Hannah's.
Jessica's
Caden's
This came from The
Itty-Bitty Bookworm. I printed out the turkey heads and on the turkey heads were numbers. The kids were to put the correct amount of clothespins (turkey feathers) on the turkey.
In this physical activity I had the kids find acorns in the sensory tub and race to the other side of the living room, crawl through the tunnel and put the acron in a basket.
Looking for acorns.
This came from
The Itty-Bitty bookworm also. These are called Name Turkeys. I had the kids paint a plate and and turkey head. Then I wrote their names on feathers. I then had them trace the letters of their name. Once complete glue everything on the paper plate.

Last week we talked about the number 9. I had Caden trace the number 9 and then right it on his own. I was very impressed. Then I had him cut 9 pieces of paper and then he glued them on his paper.
Not sure what they are doing!
Little did they know that they were going to get candy in their buckets not rocks! lol
Their first house! Toooo cute!
Caden leading the way! Professional, so he thinks!
This is what Hannah got at her first house. She thought that it was over and she wanted her candy now! She didn't realize she was going to get more. Sooo cute!
Poor Caden was sick, but he still wanted to go! So we just went to a few houses.
This was Halloween day and it was such a beautiful day so we opened the windows. So Caden thought he could get outside this way.
Ohhhh! My little princess!
Too cute! Great job on the pumpkins Daddy!
Love those blue eyes!
We are talking about transportation and Caden colored and made a school bus.
