Letter C

Today was a game day!  We played Checkers, Connect 4 and Code Master.  We learned about cheetahs.  The little kids colored which is pretty much an every day activity, but they noticed it started with C so up on the chalkboard it went.  They also counted cars and cut paper...like all those C's we're sneaking in there?!  The big kids did cubing with their neighbor friends...aka Rubik's cubes...they asked if they could do that because it starts with C lol.  And we made chocolate chip cookie bars...they were delicious!  I had plans to practice counting back money with coins and playing a money (coin) game, but time got away from us.  Oh oh, we made Chinese food for dinner...a yummy chow mein and orange chicken from my fav Pioneer Woman cookbook.  

These two...sweetness.

Vann was teaching him how to play.  

He told Ash the red squares were lava
so he had to stay on the black ones lol.
After a few games he pretty much knew
how to play...minus any strategy, but still.  

Now he's playing against Maddy.  

This game got a lot of action today!

He was supposed to line up 20 cars and count them.  

Making cookie bars!

Gotta taste a chocolate chip...

Just one ha!

Betty Crocker knows her way around some
chocolate chip cookie bars...yummo!!

Chaycers and stuff

Chaycers is my 'let's see what silly position I can get into for this fun activity' kiddo.  And I love it!  Especially when he reads...he's always laying in some crazy position and he's oh so squirmy too.  But hey he loves to learn so it's all good with me!  

This is a great learning game, the boys enjoy it. 

And an exercise ball makes it even more fun!

Skip Bo...one of my favs!

Molly snuggles.

My loves and I

More Molly snuggles...I love this.

The boys getting ready to go roller skating for Kenny's birthday.  Fun fun!

The boys and I did some yard work yesterday.  It looks like it rained sticks in our backyard...seriously there are so so many!  But we're making progress on cleaning it up and making it all pretty.  It'll be a few days, but I can't wait till it's all done.  I'm even planting some flowers this year!  I have lots of fun ideas in my noggin...we'll see how much I actually get done though.  Whatever it is, I'll be sure to snap pics and show you :)  Hope you have the best day!

Bingo

The boys love Bingo.  Even the kind that gets makes them think...like this Time and Money Bingo.  On this day, they chose to play the money version.  I love that they have to use their noggins, but still have a fun time!

Bingo and snacks...does it get any better?!

This cutie looks pretty serious now, but he was quite the little goofball during this game of Bingo...keep reading and you will see what I'm talking about...

He started doing this silly dance when he was able to cover a square...it was hilarious!

Vann almost has a Bingo!

He's like dude, my brother is sooo silly!

He has cracking up here!

Seriously...he's so super silly...

And here's the arm-pumping-crazy-giggle-dance lol.

Cracking up at Chayce!  And look...he got a Bingo!!

Bingo...yes!!

It was a fun Bingo game!  They ended up going for multiple Bingos because they didn't want the game to be over.  I love these two crazy kids! 

End of Week Recap

The boys rediscovered their pirate ships and castle this week.  They've been playing with them every free moment they have.  I love listening to them make believe together, it's pretty cute!

They even brought them outside to play with them!

Vann had another golf lesson on Thursday morning.  Here's a picture of him getting into his stance...

Isn't he just the cutest?!

One of our crafts this week was to make a pizza.  Here are the boys hard at work...

Vann gluing his sauce down

Chayce making a glue line for his cheese

He's telling me all about his pizza!

On Friday we put together a lot of puzzles and played a few different games...Connect Four, Dominoes, etc.

Chayce really likes doing puzzles all by himself

All done!!

While Chayce was working on his puzzle, Vann was doing a fun little thinking game...it's called Logic Links.

Trying to figure the clues out

Hmmm...

Let's try this

Or maybe this...

Got it!!

So happy!

Cute boy

So, that's a little recap of the end of our week.  We don't have much going on this weekend.  I ran a bunch of errands today.  And tomorrow I'm hoping I find the energy to finally paint the ceiling in the boys room.  Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
