Lincoln Logs

September 19th, 2008 by melissa

Justin can’t get enough of Lincoln logs. We built like 10 houses today. He had fun knocking them down too. Nicole gets so jealous when I try and give justin 100% of my attention. I feel so bad as Justin never requires my attention so it is fun to just build with him. He really likes that. We checked out the story time at the library by Heritage Park. It was cute. The kids did great listening and participating in the story time-it was cute. After we went and read books in the library. The kids had fun picking out the books and having me read them. We came home and just played. The kiddos wanted to play outside for a while. They did fight over everything today-ugh. We did dress up for a while. Nicole got all dressed up and insisted I wear all her bracelets, my hands are too big. Justin was wearing bracelets as well. We did the string a ball toy thing. Nicole was still having trouble and Justin did it. He was so proud of himself, stringing beads. It was cute. Then they pulled them all around the house. Through the kitchen, dining room, hallway, family room, over and over again. They watched some TV. After TV the kids wanted to wash cars. So outside we went. They were so good washing mommy car. Of course Justin had to do the hose. They both got their rags and helped as they liked the bubbles. They didn’t get the drying concept. Then they wanted to do daddy car as daddy biked to work. Of course they lost interest when I started daddy’s car, oh well. So they played, Nicole was pushing the umbrella stroller and jumping on the hoppity ball thing. Justin just wanted to water anything he could with the hose. After we planted some flower seeds in the pots the kids decorated. They loved it. We had a lot of fun. Then we did lots of bubbles. After dinner, the kids put beads on the strings. They walked around pulling them saying they are snakes and caterpillars. I love their imagination. We played outside and made baskets. The kids are getting pretty good at dribbling and making baskets, in fact I raised the basket tonight. We went upstairs and did the night time routine and the kids are fast asleep.
