Week 2

Noah's Ark was our Bible story this week so we decided to take a trip to the Nature Center.  We meet up with 2 other families that are doing the same curriculum and let the kids do some exploring.  Connor seemed to really like the reptile room.  I even heard him tell a snake "No eat the fruit!" Can you tell that we spent all of last week talking about Adam and Eve? :)

 This was our first time out there, but they have the neatest gravel pit where the kids can "dig for dinosaurs."  There are huge dinosaur bones hidden underneath that the kids can find.  Connor left covered in dirt and dust with a huge smile on his face!  As we pulled away he said "Thank you for taking me to the science center.  That was a great day!" So sweet!

Another favorite for Connor this week was the sink or float game.

 It was fun making predictions on what would happen and see how excited he would get with each object.

Our second visit to soccer cubs had major improvements!  He does SO much better in situations when he knows the routine and what to expect.  I think I need to start bringing his sweet teacher a treat every week!  Can you imagine coaching 3 year olds while all of their parents sit and observe?  She is a patient woman!

We are off to our first football game of the season tonight.  Seeing that kickoff is not until 30 minutes after bed time we are going to be lucky to make it to half time.  Thankfully both boys are down for a nap right now!  Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!
