Anyway, we've been back for two weeks. It's been so great to be home. I felt incredibly loved by all the friends we've made in our home away from family. The day we got back people began to ask when we could get together. Everyday we've visited someone. We even got to visit with some of our besties in Chicago since being back. It's so nice to know we were missed.
For the few hours when we have been home each week day, Babycake and I have still been able to keep up with learning our letters. The last two weeks have covered Gg and Hh. Our local library is doing a summer reading program and Babycake thinks it's fun to be rewarded with prizes for reading books that I would normally get for our weekly lessons. She was also super excited the first time I got the craft materials out for our lessons. Since the remodel of the kitchen I haven't put the baby drawer latches on, which used to be on every lower cabinet and drawer; Babycake can now get into all the craft materials when ever she pleases, sometimes to my dismay. I do have to admit though, she is a really great color-er! Overall I'm just happy to know she really enjoys learning and being creative.
Here are our creations:
