Aylin Jewel started preK! She is going 2 days a week to a PDO/preK plus we are doing preK homeschool again this year. We started last September and have never really stopped. She knows most of her letters and numbers so we are building on that and learning sounds and beginner sight words. I hope to do some beginner math as well but we will just have to see where the year takes us and how much she wants to do.
we did a version of this last year, you can find it here: http://thiswonderfulthingcalledlife.blogspot.com/2012/09/playing-school.html
Her PDO/PreK class has 8 kids in it and 2 of them are some of her "bestest friends" :)
Hilton has also grown up this week. We got rid of his night night bottle and he now goes to bed without being rocked :( He got to the point where he would just fight sleep when we were rocking him and he would be up for 30 mins or more before giving it up; so we took that bottle away and just put him in his crib after our night time routine. He cries for a minute or 2 and then falls right to sleep. I can't believe he is not a baby anymore :(
He also had is 12 month shots this week. The doctor was worried about the shots triggering a fever and that causing him to have a seizure so we were medicating him to try to stop all that from happening. He ended up having 2 "mini" seizures or "absent seizures" when coming off the meds. They only lasted 5 seconds, but it was enough to keep me up most of the night and to medicate him for another 12 hours. They said that he will hopefully grow out of those as well as the febrile seizures by 5 or 6 years old.
HI loved watching the construction workers while we waited on the DR :)
It was unseasonably beautiful here this week. We spent a lot of time outside and went to the zoo with my sister and nieces. We love the Memphis Zoo!
We had a Ladies Night Out with the Southaven church of Christ. I finally got to go to a paint party!
Aylin slept in curlers for the first time and loved her curly hair the next morning :)
