I is for Interruptions :)

Our letter of the week was I, number was 3, Bible stories were Isaiah, Isaac and Rebecca, and the 3 Friends in the Fire.
We did not do a whole lot of school this week because we had 3 unplanned interruptions: Fair Day :) , Zoo Day :) , and Strep Throat :(  
We did do a lot of reading :) YAY! I LOVE BOOKS!
 Our theme turned into all things Ice Cream.  We played with her Play-Dough Ice Cream Shoppe:
Made homemade ICE POPS:
 Buttercup got to have one too:
 Hilton wanted some too:
 We made homemade ICE CREAM in a BAG:
Aylin wouldn't eat it out of the bag "cuz that's weird," and she dumped 1/2 a bottle of sprinkles into hers.  It was pretty good, I heard that is can come out salty, but ours was not and I used more vanilla extract then it suggested.
 Interruption #1 was FAIR DAY!  We met some friends at the fair and ended up staying until the daddy's all got off work and some big kids got out of school.  Just to keep with our Ice Cream theme we had a funnel cake ice cream sundae for dessert and it was Incredible!  Here are a couple of pics from the fair:
Interruption #2 was Aylin waking us up at 5am throwing up, that evening she ran fever and complained about her throat hurting.  The next day we went to the doctor.  The ICE POPS we made came in handy, b/c that was all she would eat.

Interruption #3 was ZOO DAY!  We saw some friends were going to the zoo, so we decided to tag along.  It was great until we were leaving and Aylin decided to jump off one of the little bridges up front, and face planted onto the concrete :(
Here are a few pics from the rest of the zoo trip:
 It was Hilton's 1st trip to the zoo, and he did great!
 The polar bear was very entertaining and kept doing this little dance, swaying back and forth, back and forth, etc.  We also caught the sea lion show and played on the playground, which Aylin has never done because we are usually with a big group.
 The kids played in the geyser FOREVER!
Funny story:  I freaked some woman out at the fair with these 2 and their younger siblings.  She made some comment about me having twins, and then the 2 babies back to back (A-almost a year and Hilton).  I laughed and said no, R and Aylin are about 2 weeks apart, her eyes got huge and mouth dropped open.  I quickly corrected, R and A are brother and sister, Aylin and Hilton are brother and sister, the four of them are just friends.  Shannon, R and A's mother, was riding a ride with her older son during this whole conversation.

I leave you with some pics of my little man, he is doing great and is a trooper :)

Coming up this week: Letter N and #4.
