Impressed

Jakob will come home from school most days and work on his homework without me even asking him to. I'm not sure how long it will last, but I'm loving the fact that he is motivated to do it on his own now.

A few weeks ago we were learning about space with Isabelle's Preschool Group. I made a few pictures with definitions of different objects found in space. In the picture below Jakob decided to make a little book and copy these space definition pages into his book. He spent a lot of time working on it and putting it all together. I was very impressed!

Love, love, love....

I love, love, love my kids reading books. I set the kids up with library books right before bed. With our crazy summer schedule we haven't been reading in the evenings as much as we normally do. Lots of rushed evenings trying to get the kids to bed since we were up too late. It was great to pull out the books tonight and watch them enjoy!!

Fun Book

Jakob brought home this fun book from school this last week. We have never read the magic tree house books and we are starting with #2. Maybe we'll backtrack and read #1 next. Anyway, Jakob is loving this book, all about magically traveling to the time of knights and castles. Fun!!

Conference Packets

Here is a couple Conference Packets for those of you who have kids!!

Another Conference Packet

I had to pick and choose what I am using with my little ones. Not a lot of writing going on with Jakob and Isabelle, Jakob is just starting to write words. I printed off the coloring sheets, the First Presidency description papers, and the bingo game. I'm also planning to do a couple of the activities that they talked about in the Ensign this last month. I'm excited for tomorrow and so excited that I have some things to help my little ones listen to the voice of our prophet.

Green Eggs and Ham

Yesterday I was reading Green Eggs and Ham to Isabelle, one of her favorites. Everytime I read where Sam would asked if he would "eat it" somewhere or with something Isabelle would respond by saying yes. It was so cute!!
