Basketball

Stanley has started basketball again. He has a new team and a new coach, and he had his first practice and game today.

Lisa's Swimming Class

Lisa started a new session of swimming classes this week. She loves to be in the water!

Snow

We've been having so much snow, and the kids have been having fun making snowballs and snowmen...and lots of snow days!

Open Gym

The kids had a day off of school, so we went to open gym at the gymnastics studio. The kids haven't been taking gymnastics recently, so they were happy to get to practice some of the skills they had learned when they were taking lessons.

My Little Reader

Lisa has been practicing reading easy-reading books and sight words.

Valentine's Day

We had a fun Valentine's Day this year!

Lisa had her Valentine's Day party at school on Tuesday, February 13, since not all the students in her class come to school on Wednesdays. She got lots of valentines and candy!

Lisa and her teachers

On February 14, we woke up to snow and a 2-hour school delay. (Luckily Lisa had her party the day before, because her school was cancelled!) The extra 2 hours let us have a nice morning: heart pancakes, presents, and time with my favorite valentines.

The great card Stanley made for me

While Stanley was at school, Lisa and I made Valentine's Day cupcakes. Lisa loves to help in the kitchen! She even helped add the sprinkles.
