~ Happy Thanksgiving ~

Austin only had to attend school on Monday & Tuesday this week. On Tuesday, he brought home a turkey hat!


What's a hat post of Austin without a picture of Abigail? She was saying "Cheese" while I was taking her picture!


I'm getting ready to start preparing our Thanksgiving feast while the kids watch the Thanksgiving Day parade. We're having our Army family over for dinner. 5 single soldiers will be joining us so we're making a ton of food. We're even attempting to deep fry our turkey. It should be an interesting morning as we try to prepare everything for a 1:00 dinner. I'm sure I'll be taking pictures throughout the day...

Happy Thanksgiving!

I is for Inch Worm

Look how scary he made it!



Please look past the dorito faces. When Daddy's away, they get whatever they want for dinner (unless it's something totally outrageous)! Last night it happened to be chicken nuggets and doritos!

F is for FLY!


I can only imagine what the letter "G" will bring...
Any guesses?

The missing "E" hat

We learned at our parent/teacher conference on Thursday that Austin would be making an Eagle hat on Friday. When I picked him up from daycare on Friday, the eagle hat was no where to be found. I asked Austin where it was and he mumbled something about not being finished so he had to throw it away. I really can't imagine his teacher telling him to throw it away, but I have no idea where the hat is at.

Any guesses for the letter "F"?


****

Our parent/teacher conferences went well on Thursday. Austin needs to work on recognizing his letters, but is average in everything he's been tested for.

I know he's absorbing something because he can do a lot of things he didn't know how to do at the beginning of the year.

He can now:

* Write his name unassisted and without looking at it to copy the letters.

* He can recite all the months of the year in order.

* Counts objects, recognizes the correct number and matches them together.

* Is learning how things rhyme with each other. He tries to rhyme all the time.

* Recognizes some upper and lower case letters. And even knows the sound they make.

There are more, but I can't seem to think of them now. He's done well, and has only had one color change for his behavior. He got a green smiley face last week for hitting others with his lunch box. Apparently he wasn't the only one so that makes me feel a little better. Still doesn't make it right, but we had a discussion about it when we got home.

Overall, we just need to work on recognizing letters. We bought some flash cards and some work books so he can practice.

Tomorrow is picture day. It should be interesting to see how they turn out!

Hats of the alphabet, con't

I was surprised yesterday when Austin's next hat of the alphabet was in his backpack.
D is for Dinosaur

And of course Abigail had to get in there for a picture. They were both saying "Cheese" for this picture. They're so goofy!

What's your guess for the letter E? The only thing that comes to my mind at the moment is elephant. Or maybe egg?

Hats of the alphabet

Remember the alligator hat? It appears as though Austin is making a hat for each letter of the alphabet. I've decided to take a picture of him wearing each of the hats he brings home on Friday's.
A is for Alligator

B is for Bee

C is for Cactus

Anybody want to guess what kind of hat he's going to come home with for the letter D?
