Prep. Curriculum: Week 9

I will be doing this post a day early because I do not have party pictures off of my phone yet. So I will be posting about Samantha's school week. This week's theme was all about COOKIES. Oooooohhhhh, the cookie theme. We didn't go to the library this week. I read her some cookie poems offline, and we made cookies on Monday.
I don't know why I did all green, but anyways, I didn't take any pictures of Sammy coloring her cookie pages, but she loved eating the cookies we made. The cookies were triple chocolate chip. They were delicious.

On Tuesday, she studied the shape of a circle. She kept tracing the outline on her coloring page, instead of coloring.
She tried to make the circles on her own, and did really well on some, but got carried away at one point.

 
On Wednesday, she learned the letter I. She ran straight to the fridge, and grabbed the "I" magnet.
I was a little upset with her that she went crazy and just scribble all over, but she knew what the letter was and that is all that matters at the time.

She wrote most of the I's by herself. After, she was so proud of herself and couldnt wait to show daddy that night when he got home from work.
 
On Thursday, we did the number 9. As always, she counted away. That night at dinner we had stroganoff and she counted the noodles on her plate and I just thought that it was the cutest thing.

 
This was the best picture. She did really well on Thursday. She wrote the 9"s by herself except the first one. I was so proud.
 
On Friday, we recited the nursery rhyme The Queen of Hearts.
Next week, the theme will be trains. I think that we will take a field trip to see a train track.
 
Goodnight All!!!

Planning Trips

I have always wanted to travel and visit landmarks and famous places. When Cayce and I met, I was planning a trip to Europe with the student ambassador program. After Samantha was born, We planned that we would visit each state in America first and then go to different countries.

Since we live in South Carolina, we will be visiting places here first. Places that we haven't been too. I am planning a trip fo us to go to the Cayce Riverwalk, and the Cayce museum. I also want to go to some haunted sites, but I really don't want to take my babies into a place that is filled with the  paranormal.

Tomorrow my dad is having his 50th birthday party, and we have errands to do before. So, I'm going to go for tonight. I will post about the party and pics tomorrow night.

Night Yall

Planning the weekend

The next few days will be busy for me. Next Tuesday, is my dad's birthday. He will be having a party on Saturday, and I have to peel 3 big bags of potatoes and 1 big bag of onions. I will have to have a pair of onion goggles tomorrow.....lol

We will be so busy on Saturday, I will try to post about the party. My dad is going to help Cayce add on to his workshop, so we will soon have more storage space. I had a little party in my head when Cayce told me.

We are having a shrimp paella tonight, so I have to go and get everything in the crockpot.

Ariana's 2nd Birthday Party: October 7, 2012

This post will be about Ariana's party last Sunday, but I have to say that I don't have to worry about pregnant or not right now because I got my monthly in the middle of the night. I was so relieved and so was Cayce.

Anyways, to the party review. We had more people this year at her party than last. We made so much food, and everyone loved the wings. The girls loved playing with their cousins Brynn and Bryar. Now here come some photos.

This is Cayce's grandmother and step grandfather with the girls.

Sammy and Airy lounging

This is my daddy. The girls love their papa.

This is Cayce's co-worker Budd, and he is sort of uncle to the babies.
 
We had a very good time. After everyone got through eating, we opened presents.

She got more presents. These were from Cayce, Budd and I

Ariana was lounging with her little cousin Bryar. Bryar will be the big 2 next month!!!!


Ariana was pushing Bryar on the firetruck that we have

 

Ariana riding her lego car that my mom got her.

This was the first day that she sat up all by herself with no help.
 


Sammy wanted to claim the mickey mouse puzzles from Uncle Budd


I love my big girl

 
We went to walmart right after everyone left. Ariana had a great day and she was exhausted.
 
Even though I was tired and stressed from all the cooking, I would like to do it again for sammy and addy's birthdays. I dont know what we are going to do for Adalyn's 1st bday.

Scared!

I haven't been feeling well the past week. I haven't had my monthly this month and I'm a week late. I have my tubes tied and I hope I'm not pregnant. If I am, I hope it's not ectopic. I would be so heart broken. I don't want to lose a child, I have come so close to losing my Adalyn, I can't go through something more worse, than actually losing a baby.

Cayce and I have been coming up with girl names because we have had a boy name chosen for so long. We have chosen between Brooklyn Elizabeth or Gabriella Kendall. It wouldn't be so bad if we had another girl, because we have clothes and little girl things but we would be tight on room.

If I am pregnant, I'm hoping it doesn't implant in my fallopian tubes or the baby's life will never be.

Will there be a number 4 or will it cease to exist.

Prep. Curriculum: Week 8

I'm sorry this post is so late, but I couldn't upload the photos off my phone. The week's theme was the Sun. I don't have a picture of her learning poster, but have plenty of pictures.


This was the first day. She colored a very pretty sun, and she loved the books.



This was the second day. We learned about the color yellow. She is doing very good with her colors and can call them out when asked.



This was on Wednesday. She did the letter H. When she was practicing her writing, I was so confused as to why the creator of this activity, put the items that start with the letter S at the bottom.


On Thursday, she did the number 8. She counted crayons and we have letter magnets on our refrigerator and she took the 2 O's and put one on top of the other to make an 8. It was so cute. On Friday, we recited the nursery rhyme Hickory Dickory Dock. She laughed at the ending every time.

This week, she had the week off. On Monday, we will start back up and the theme will be cookies. Now, I know that she will love next week....lol.

Happy 2nd Birthday Ariana!!!

2 years ago, my 2nd child was born. She came 5 days late, and came here the quickest. She loved her party on Sunday and got plenty of presents. This morning we got up early this morning because Cayce had to go work with my dad. We had chocolate chip pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bacon for her breakfast.

Until lunch time, she played with Samantha and watched TV while I went back and catched up on some sleep. I still aint feeling good. For lunch, we had Lightning McQueen chicken nuggets and a ceasar salad. Ariana got so messy from the salad dressing. She went right to sleep after her lunch. After her nap, she left a present for me all over the floor because her daddy decided to be lazy and not put her pants back on.

I will have pictures tomorrow. Later for supper, we are going to have a supreme pizza and a piece of cake for dessert. I was going to put the girls to bed tonight myself, but I'm going to let Cayce do it because he will be the one giving them a bath tonight.

Here is a recent picture of Ariana.
