Making Friends today

So today we have playgroup.  We went to Munchkin Playland.  As soon as we got there when I went to unbuckle Olivia from her carseat I told her "we are here to play with some friends!" and she looked at me and said "take turns." This is a concept we are working on...well this and sharing. She did really well and had a lot of fun.  We went right to the library after the playgroup was over.  She checked out "a dozen and two" books.  A lot of good ones.
One of the books we got is "Math Fables" (we also got one called Math Fables too" This is a book of short fables that have morals but also include math and grouping.  I really like this book.
 
We also got a few longer stories to start reading at bedtime.  I got books about opposites and some non-fiction as well.  Plus I let Olivia pick out a bunch as well...AND she got 2 signing times DVD's (her favorite).  A plus is one of the signing time DVD's is "Days of the Week" and we are already working on that everyday with our day of the week wall.  We have also added a vowel and number chart to the wall near our day of the week wall. 

We have added an alphabet banner to our homeschool area as well.  We don't really have much wall space for it though lol.

Olivia also is working on cutting with scissors.  We worked on this a bit today, helping to build her finer motor skills.  

So this is all we have checked out at the library...

And this is just from today....

It was such a busy day we didn't work on much else.  Olivia played with our new neighbors son in his truck for a LONG time.  Maybe an hour and a half.  Then we came inside and I made dinner and I read her a book while it was cooking. She fell asleep while I was reading and she wouldn't open her eyes for dinner.  Oh and dinner was SUPER good.  I got the recipe off the back of a box of the Safeway brand cheese its.  Its basically tuna casserole but with cheese it crumbs (mixed with butter) sprinkled on top.  It was soooo good!
