Monday: when we're home...

Today we stayed home for most of the day.  (We went to the gym, but that was in the early evening.)  I couldn't think of any errands that really needed to be done and it was rather cold out.

Isaac worked on a kite for the kitchen.  He made it yesterday during quiet time, but it still needed tape.  Green tape (scotch) and yellow tape (double sided).  Then it needed strong tape (masking).  Then it needed really strong tape (packing).  He also told me I could add some stickers if I wanted to.

It also took him forever to get dressed.  I'm not always sure what he does, but it can be nice.  He was asking for quiet time all morning...we just put some new toys in his quiet time drawer and apparently they're a hit.  (The quiet times for Friday-Sunday all lasted about twice as long as normal.)

Joshua was acting a bit weird today.   He wanted to read on the floor of his bedroom with his quilt over him and the cedar chest runner over me.  That would have been fine.  But then after a page or two something would be wrong so he'd get up and deal with it.  But then he'd need the quilt back on... It was funny at first and then got annoying.

Lastly, this week is V week for Isaac.  There aren't a lot of things to bring that start with V.  We have a website that we look at that is pretty good and he really wanted to bring a Venn Diagram.  Not having any handy, we made one.  I'm pretty sure it is a glimpse of things to come, as it felt oddly like a school assignment.  It was a pretty cool thing to do with stickers though...I'd recommend it as an activity.
