Summer Fun Day Two

Day Two packed full of exciting things like...
So today started out with a round of cereal for all. Today was Story time at the Library, and they were all very excited to go. So they passed the time with coloring pages again. And playing lego's.
While we are all upstairs watching a little disney tv. We realized that Emma had gone downstairs. (I had played the piano and sang songs with them on the first day.) So there sat Emma with a book on the stand and pretending to play while she sang!!! So Cute!!
Okay, so coming from the Round Rock/Georgetown Area where Story time draws the crowds of stay at home moms. It is nothing to have 30- 40 children at each story time there. So i was a little surprised by the turn out here in Universal City!!! Yes you counted correctly, only 6 children.
They learned about flowers and then got to decorate a cup to plant some sunflower seeds in.
Then after we came home and had our hour of reading and laying on the couch. They all helped fold laundry. Why not it is their clothes!! And they seemed to know how to do it. Great job JJ and Chris ( I am sure it was JJ that has taught them this skill, after all i grew up with Chris and he never even folded wash rags!) Although Sierra says that he does know how to fold them now!!

I had a few papers that i needed shredded. So while i have free help that thinks it is fun to separate and put paper in the machine. I totally put them to work!!! So here is how the assembly line went:
Levi and Emma were in charge of riping old checks out of the books.Zack was in charge of putting the papers in stack of 4 sheets.
Sierra was in charge of feeding the papers into the machine to shred.

After a fun afternoon all the office work and laundry was done. Love free help!!

After dinner we did two exciting things. We played science experiment with little capsules that when put in warm water turn to sponge animals. They still have not opened up yet all the way. We are hopeful that the morning will bring exciting animal sponges.

And then we went to Mc Donalds for ice cream cones and to play on the jungle gym.
