Reading (Sat)(15) *Walla Walla (MON) (17) *HOME (Tues)(18)

I am so not in order with my posts lately---I feel like just making it through the next activity or day is good--and am actually keeping up with blogging--but have also gotten hooked on facebook whie I have been lying around!! I did not want to even start---ha! This past Monday we went to Lee's final Dr. appointment with his BLISTER (2 months and every two weeks at the dr.) Praise the Lord its HEALED!! DADDY YOU CAN NOW GO SWIMMING YOUR BLISTER IS ALL GONE!!! (sweet) One great thing to be thankful for---Gretchen and I went into the room with Lee---since she cried at her app.---a couple weeks ago we decided to let her go meet dad's foot dr. Now I need to back up a bit...............to prepare her for her 3 year check up we asked her if she wanted to tell the doctor anything and she said I am telling him about my hiccups--(tehhe) She would not even look at her peds dr. but did shake his hand at the end. Well out of the mouth of a sweet 3 year old on Monday to daddy's docter we hear-----I HAD DIAREAH WHEN I DRANK MY BATH WATER!! clear and understandable!! Tell me about a moment to cringe--and of course chuckle....(wrong dr. but very funny!!) Good thing she did not go on and explain when I hold it I get constipation---which she has been known to tell others------not shy at all--so we are telling her some things are kept QUIET!
Tuesday we stayed HOME but it was quite exciting-------------ELEPHANT PRESCOOL SATRTED AT THE DINING ROOM TABLE!!! She received a preschool workbook for her birthday from Nana and Papa so I made it a special book and we will sit and do the pages two days a week----we even started our school with pledge and prayer and snack of course
(breakfast)
The first few minutes of the first page I just was not sure how it was going to go--------I explained we needed to LISTEN AND Follow directions ---I was the teacher and she was the student!! (establishing rules to start and making it fun yet learning experience also) Notice smartie pants had to wear her elephant shirt for preschool today!!!
Page One---COLOR THE PHOTOS RED --firetruck, hose, hat etc.
teacher-Pick out a red crayon Gretchen
G--picks a purple crayon
teacher--try again
G-picks a white crayon
teacher--you know your colors good-what color is that in your hand?
G-not red mommy --I mean teacher--hahhahha
then picks three red crayons
finished the page fine--
PAGE TWO---COLOR THE PHOTOS YELLOW--chick, sun,banana etc.
did super gave gold stars---colored nice
PAGE THREE ---COLOR THE PHOTOS BLUE
she did super but the when it came to the basket --she asked if she could color it brown (yes baskets are usually brown but the direction Gretchie says color them blue) after seconds of thinking she says ALL RIGHT!!! HA!!
PAGE 4 and 5 --I was stopping after three pages but she found the Ee Page with elephants and since her name has two e's in it we went ahead and did it---did fine !! We then practiced tracing E's on white paper with the teacher doing dashes for the Ee --she lost interest sooo I let her down she lies down on the floor and asks if it was naptime (10 am) WOW I must have really taxed her brain---preschool is tiring!!!

Saturday we went to the library to order Lee glasses online-- Gretchie was soo good at the library and we found HORTON HATCHES THE EGG book and HORTON HEARS AWHO?? Her favorite book Rainbow Fish which she usually picks in Spanish but we had the english book today!Monm is it in Spanish?? No Gretchie --Oh good then we can read it!!
