Dennie Kids: January 26, 2010

Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)

• Campbell has just been waking up one time each night lately but Graham still woke up very early this morning-he wakes up mad as he can be but calms down when he gets in bed with Mom and Dad and drinks his milk
• Baths before school for everyone (except Campbell) and then bananas and grapes for breakfast
• Dad and Reagan talking about vowels on the way to school.  She is really been into spelling lately and has taught Anderson to spell his name (she works with him at night while they are in bed)
• A big day at school-Anderson making marshmallow snowmen for snack, Reagan getting to pull things out of the letter bag and Graham seeing Anderson during the fire drill (Anderson said that he said "hey Graham" when he saw him
• Driving around the new Target on the way home (we do every school day) but this time there were lots of workers and construction vehicles to watch
• Reagan doing her homework as soon as we came home, then everyone reading magazines, playing a game, working in our workbooks, watching a movie and coloring pictures
• Anderson writing his name for the first time (Mom helped with the E and Reagan helped with the R)-Mom didn't even know he could write any letters except A and O
• Nonna and Pops coming over to play while Mom and Dad went out to eat.  Pops brought our supper and Nonna came over right after work.  We played and played.  We even played so much that Graham didn't want to go to bed and decided that he should get up and play with everyone else
• Everyone going straight to bed after Nonna and Pops left-Mom and Dad never heard anyone make a peep-they were tired!
