Gardening

We went to our community Garden

Vada loves being outside so I knew she would be happy talking to me as I weeded...

we weed a lot at home and to my surprise, Vada started to WEED

She propped herself up on the ledge of the box and started puling weeds! 

It was briliant!

It was a fun afternoon chore, she was having a ton of fun in the dirt and she was a true helper.

Vada and her kitchen things

Vada standing

Beautiful sweet Vada is almost always standung now! She is getting so big. It is amazing watching her grow and learn new things. We all love her so much.

Playing Catch and LAUGHING

There is something about a child's laughter that is magical but when it is met with bent over laughing it fills every space with extreme happiness! 

Tyson kept throwing the ball for Charlie and was so happy when he threw it!

Happiness is a child's laughter!

A Child's Laughter

One of a kind this cheerful sound
A child's laughter wherever it's found
From the giggling of a baby in a playpen
To the laughter of a toddler again and again

A child's laughter can bring a smile
To one who hasn't done so in such a long while
I know because that one was me
Until my daughter's laugh set mine free

A child's laughter so gleeful and pure
An innocence adults miss for sure
Laughter that can bring back the past
And memories of a youth that flew by so fast

A child's laughter can bring out the best
Of most any man when he's depressed
Cause his spirit that's fall to soar
Until at last he laughs once more

Library

We all love books and we are making it our plan to make it to the library as often as possible! Vada was in heaven when she saw all the books! She went to town reading and playing.

Tyson immediately went to climbing the fire engine book shelf

And the tree, he found a friends to play with as well...

And Vada found a puzzle to do

Tyson introducing himself to his new friends

and then he joined them for a puzzle..

While Tyson was visiting, Vada was standing by herself, she would squat, stand up for a few minutes, then fall o her bum. She did it for about 10 mins, so adorable, Anytime I tried to get a picture she would stop, so we happily watched!

So proud of Vada!

Art Appreciation

I like when the kids are exposed to many things but art is special! 

Tyson and Vada loved it. 

Tyson looked at this picture, made up of lots of small pictures, for 20 minutes.

Vada looked for about 10 minutes.
