Daniel turned 2yo last Friday and today he carried the world ball around the "sun" this morning.
I thought for sure he would throw the ball, but he held on to it.

I finally got a yellow tablecloth so our table could better represent the sun

We read The Teeny Tiny Teacher and This Little Piggy Goes To Market both books had the older ones giggling. The weather is beautiful, outside time was very comfortable.

Daniel walks 2x around the sun. He looked like he'd throw the ball but he hung on

Two! Happy belated 2nd Birthday Daniel!!

Now we have 3 two year olds!

And we have no one year olds anymore!!

But Jack is coming up on his 1st birthday! Then his name will move from the cupcake!

Our new big blue ball

Is that cheesecake Ivy? "Yes. It is for my Mommy"

Look who's crawling

Daniel was clapping after seeing a good throw

Look who's standing!

I love the ideas they come up with

Look who's taking a few steps

Whoops!

Time for lunch!

I took a lot of photos today. It always seems to vary on the day!
We didn't get to have Daniel travel around the sun 2x for his birthday, and I am thinking it may be too hectic this afternoon but we will try. Definitely tomorrow if we miss it again!

We read Minerva Louise and Her New Friend and also Pete the Cat- his white shoes and PTC plays baseball.

It was cool out today compared to the weather we've had recently!

Care of the Environment- trimming dead leaves

Fine motor skills

Care of the Environment- real jobs

This set of bells is tuned, and Brendan was making discoveries today

"I can make different sounds"

Lelia's design

I flipped the photo around- I had thought it was a cool design which Lelia had made- but it is actually a very cool person, complete with hair and shoes!

Pink towe and brown stair

Daniel started to throw and I told him to stack instead- so each time he did he would happily clap

Monday June 3rd- Two Times Around the Sun

B~ Shredded wheat, bananas
S~ Kiwi, whole wheat saltines
L~ Deli ham, American cheese, multi-grain bread and butter, snap peas, carrots, broccoli, water chestnuts
S~ Vanilla yogurt with fresh blueberries

We've had lots of birthdays lately! Addison turned 5yo last Monday, Daniel turned 2yo on Friday and Ivy turned 2yo on Sunday!

Because of scheduling, Ivy walked around the "sun" first
Daniel will get his turn tomorrow when he is back

We went out in the rain this morning, it was nice just gently raining/sprinkling. Luckily we were inside before a torrential rain pour began-- I am sure they would have loved it had we still been out though and we could have just changed clothes after!

We talked about bad dreams a little today and they started telling me stories so I documented some of what they said. It is hanging on the chalkboard plus I took a photo-- we'll see if it is legible!
