Big News

Sorry I haven't been on in so long, but I have a very good reason....

I'M PREGNANT!


We're very excited about the new baby, which will arrive in November. I, however, have not been feeling very well. I hope to be back up and blogging this week!

Little Break

I plan on taking a little break from blogging for about a week. Hope you all have a very blessed Easter! See you soon!

Alphabet Match-Up

Sorry I've been MIA. Life has been crazy. We had a wedding shower to be at, our driveway was dug up to repair some electrical lines, and Bekah now has a stomach virus. I'm praying that life calms down for a bit now! Here's a fun activity we did last week:
I saw this activity awhile ago on The Activity Mom and couldn't wait until we had an empty paper towel roll to do it.


We had the alphabet stickers, so I just drew letters all over the paper towel tube and let Bekah match up the letters. She loved doing this and even though she stopped half-way through, she came back to it later on that afternoon.

Raising Rock Stars - Adam and Eve

This week for our Raising Rock Stars project we talked about Adam and Eve and the fall. We read the story from our toddlers bible and our Young Readers bible this week.

Bekah was very interested in the story and asked many questions. It was such a great time together and I can't wait to do more bible stories together!

We did two different projects to go with our bible story this week. The first one was this activity of Eve and the snake. Bekah loved playing with this. I printed it off from Christian Preschool Printables.

We attached the snake to a Popsicle stick so that Bekah could move him in and out of the tree.


The second activity we did for our Adam and Eve story was this spingy snake from DLTK's site.

stART project - Mouse Paint

This week for our stwe had a fun time reading Mouse Paint by Ellen Stoll Walsh.
We've read some other books by her, but this was a definite favorite. Bekah absolutely loves to paint, so this was a great activity for her. It also reinforced color mixing.

I found this printable from here and got out our finger paints. Bekah would put the correct color(s) in the spaces and see what would happen when colors would combine. She loved doing this.

Letter L Activities

Last week we worked on Letter L. We made a letter L is for Lion that I had seen at Funny Day's with Mommy and Maddie.


We also made lemonade with our juicer. Bekah couldn't wait for Daddy to taste our lemonade. It was yummy!


(Don't worry the juicer was off as she was putting in the lemon pieces!)


We also did these fun lollipop activities that I found at Home Grown Hearts.

(She loved using our flashlight this week!)

(I realized the 3 was backwards after I took the photo and helped her fix it!)


Bekah had a lot of fun with the ladybug printables I found at Confessions of a Homeschooler.


I loved seeing her and Daddy work on this cut and paste ladybug!


This Letter L cut and paste is a favorite of Bekahs. You can find it at Homeschool Creations.

Muffin Tin Monday - Green

Happy Monday! Today's Muffin Tin theme is Green. I had a really hard time thinking of green food (that Bekah would eat). Now don't get me wrong. She loves peas, green beans, and broccoli....but I didn't have any of those things on had. I had green peppers and celery, which she refuses to eat! So, this is what I came up with:
Shamrock shaped American cheese, green salad with ranch dressing, marshmallows and stars cereal (a knock off of Lucky Charms), pears (hey, the skin was green!), and Thin Mint cookies (mint is green, isn't it?).



Can you tell she's been into the cookies?!
