A Boy Who Loves Beans

We had bean and rice tacos last night for dinner and Elliot just kept eating, and eating, and eating.  Everyone else had finished and left the table for a bit.  I went back to see if he was done, but instead found that he had pulled the bean and rice pan toward himself so he could self serve.

A Tidy Crib is a Happy Crib

I went to wake Elliot from his nap and he looked like a cuddly brown ewok...

When he woke he was still a bit groggy...

But then got right to work hanging up bear and his blanket so he could come downstairs...

Peter's Field Trip to the Kids' Gym

Peter Starts Preschool

Today Peter started preschool at a local elementary school.  He will be going on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

V is for Vest

Peter made a vest to go with our V unit:

We are almost done with V:

And the boys opted to do chore time before getting dressed for the day.  Elliot dragged clothes to the hamper while Peter swept the hallway:

Catching Up - Learning Time, Sledding and Ultrasound

Wow, it's been a few weeks since I was here.  Our camera was in the shop for much of that time so I only have a few photos.

We finished our E unit:

And then started on X.  I don't have many pictures because that is most of the time I didn't have the camera I like:

Then we moved right on to V:

In the last picture Doug and Peter are making Very Violet playdoh.

Doug and Peter went sledding:

We had fun with the sensory tubs in the house:

And we went for an ultrasound to see our little peanut:

Oil Change Picnic

We had an 8am appointment to get the oil changed in the van so we took our breakfast and a picnic blanket.

The boys watched the auto maintenance show and learned all about differentials.  I asked Elliot to point to the differential - I'm no expert, but I think he got it.

Interspersed between maintenance topics there were clips from the Big Bang Theory.  Those held the boys' attention as well.
