The last few weeks



This past week, my little Brooklyn was spotlighted as her classes Star Of The Week. I really wanted to make it a BIG deal because I am seriously slacking in the mom department with my Kindergartner.  I have missed or forgotten so many little things that have gone on in her class (I blame pregnancy brain).  I feel like such an A@@!  So I really wanted to do this week up BIG!  We made a poster all about Brook!  We had so much fun going through all of her old pictures and talking about all of them.  She was so sweet to sit and listen to her life in pictures.


On her first day as SOTW, She got to wear jewelry!  That was such a big deal for her.  She promised to mot touch or play with it through class, but to just wear it pretty, and she did.  



Brooklyn had to opportunity to go up in front of her entire class and perform her favorite nursery rhyme.  She did Jack Be Nimble because she thought the "burned his toe" part was hilarious.  Her class agreed and burst out in laughter.  LOVE HER!




This is my little doll about to take her poster into class on her first day of SOTW!  She was so excited and so very proud!!!!  I am so proud of you my Brookie Cookie!



Oh it has been so stinking cold here in Orem Utah!  Blah!  My girls and I are having serious cabin fever.  Yesterday it was a warm 32 degrees and I let them play outside.  I had to.  We have been so trapped indoors lately that I just had to let them out.  I am so glad I did.  They had fun being outdoors.  We did a few activities indoors to keep the girls busy.  For the most part they all worked.  Some of the fun things we did.....

Crafty Wood Cutouts.  We painted Conversation Hearts.


Baking Soda, Vinegar and food coloring fizzy fun.
