07/13/2011

This evening I took the kids to the store and we bought some fun craft making supplies. They have been learning how to use scissors at school so I thought it might be time for them to have their own pair at home. Alexa picked out a pink pair and Gavin picked out yellow. They both felt pretty proud to have their own pair of scissors! We had a long discussion about what we can and cannot cut with the scissors. They sat on the floor and cut up construction paper for almost a half hour. I showed them how to make butterflies and then they used the glue stick to attach some decoration to the wings. It was a great learning experience!



Tysen loves paper! He was having as much fun as Alexa and Gavin by drooling all over the paper scraps. He tried to eat the paper multiple times, too.


Tysen has been sitting unassisted for about a week now. He never sits for long, though, because he's such a busy-body. He'll lean forward and place his hands on the ground, then flop his belly to the ground, and he's off crawling across the room!
