About Me

Oslo, Norway
Welcome to my blog! I am a wife and a Mommy of three. We have 2 daughters, Reagan and Hayden and a son, Grasyon. Here I write about our life happenings and try to capture memories the best I can. I hope this helps keep those close to us, in Texas, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond, a little more up to date while we're away. Enjoy!

Letter B

Once again, I am behind on my letter posts. We finished B a few weeks ago and have even finished C. I ordered a few things from Amazon, so I have been waiting on those to get here before we start E. (we started with D and M)

She traced the letter B.

She is right handed but for some reason she switched to the left.


Then she switched back to her right hand. 


The did her capitol and lower case letter sort. 






She paired the 2 parts of the butterfly to make it complete. 



I had to help her at first with this. I'm not sure she realized to look at the color of the butterfly, I think she was confused on what to do.

We tried to lace a butterfly. I hole punched the outside edges, but I have not been able to find yarn. We tried it with a pipe cleaner, but it didn't really work. I ended up doing most of it because the paper was too flimsy for the pipe cleaner.



She made a beaded necklace. 






She was so excited to wear it that she didn't want to take the time to add that many beads. 


We played, and played and are still playing with bubbles. She loves it. When were bored and not sure what to do we play with bubbles!!


She loves to run around, chase and pop them.
















Another day we went back to her necklace. She wanted to add more beads to her necklace, so we did. 






Later in the day I was putting Grayson down for a nap and I come out to Reagan's necklace looking like this. 

I'm pretty sure she had Maria put the rest of the beads on her necklace. 


She did a butterfly sort. We talked about small, medium and large. 








I cut out different colored tissue paper squares for her to glue onto a butterfly. 














She made a capitol B bumble bee. 











These next few pictures really have nothing to do with her letter B, I just thought they were so cute. She was so excited, just singing and dancing away. 









Putting the necklace on Goofy. 


We watched Beauty and the Beast. 


She practiced riding her new bike. Sweet girl got a new huffy!




I love these next few pictures. Maria was trying to teach Reagan how to blow bubbles. Reagan kept trying and trying, she just couldn't quite get it.



This picture cracks me up! 





We made a boat with different shape. (I got this idea from Marla, she posted a link to the site, but I can't remember what it was.) 










We made a lower case butterfly, my camera was dead so this is the only picture I got. 

Sorted buttons (check out the marker she has all over her arms, this is why she is never dressed during craft time!)



and glued them on a capitol B.

Hey Grayson! He loves to watch us do crafts. 


(More marker all over her belly, homegirl goes to town with her markers.) 




And made B's with blue play doh.












No B's here, just playing with the play doh. I think this was Mrs. Amy and her daughter Cicee. 

Now I am going to clean my kitchen craft table. Even though in no time, it will be back looking like this again.

And that was our letter for 2 weeks!
