4 Peas in a Pod: Week of July 19, 2015

We have had a very different, interesting week. The girls little friends were still getting over being sick for the first part of the week so the girls and I got some good quality time together.

Monday was a normal day of our regular routine. Daddy started a new schedule at work so he goes in an hour later and comes home an hour later. The girls and I have taken advantage of this by adding in some morning reading time cuddling in bed.

I'm trying to get into a good school schedule before August 17, which is when we start CC. The girls and I get in reading (both phonics and read-alouds), writing, math and art every morning. Then we try to squeeze in a science activity now and then. We were having fun going on nature walks but, it is too stinkin' hot now!

Tuesday we were getting ready for the day when little Audrey opened the door and hit Katie on her eyebrow. We ended up going to the emergency room and getting Katie's cut eyebrow glued. It didn't take very long at all but, it did put a kink in our morning routine, to say the least!

After we got back home and got Daddy to bed Katie felt like a library trip so we visited the library for more books.

We've been enjoying lots of watercolor painting.

The girls and I went to the park and went shopping at petsmart and target Wednesday. We had such fun! We found these very handy chalkboards with holders at the target dollar spot.

Finding Waldo together in a "Where's Waldo?" book.

Knox and Brex were all better by the end of the week. They came over to play and the kids had such fun with wikki stix.

Katie and Audrey have been using little paintbrushes dipped in water to pretend to paint each other's nails.

We recently got our chimney resided and painted. The new chimney looked so nice we decided we should paint the house to match. Daddy has been working in the early mornings and the house is looking so nice!
