First day at Writing Center .. right downstairs. See the table, Char!

Alison and Jen spent days preparing and collecting beginning writing paper and fat pencils and of course stickers for each page. They were so excited about making straight lines - long and short – and squiggles and curves all the stickers were used up!

First day at writing center, we all agreed, was a big success!

And then, lunch before leaving for playschool. A 10 minute walk from home. (2 mornings and one afternoon a week.)

Home from the afternoon session – tired boys – for a late nap.

Then after waiting for Jen to come out of the bathroom, the boys fell into bed and slept really long times.

Nonnie (aka Gramma Carol) has been visiting all week. Unfortunately, I’ve been sick in bed for that same amount of time. Which totally stinks. But it did afford Nonnie and Dave lots of quality time with the boys. Like, when they took the guys to the Museum of Flight on Saturday morning. It was cool, if a little overwhelming for the guys. Best thing they did the whole time, I think, was sit in this sweet “HeliGaGa“.

We are 18 months old today! And we are a little too … active to hold signs at the moment.
