And...CUT!

Finally, the end of a rough week! This week I learned that Aislin's attention span is stellar when it comes to art projects, that my kids need a snack supply when they attend a library story time and that, no matter how well-prepared, accommodating or entertaining my Group Time activities and Story Time selections may be, Aislin still won't appreciate them because she doesn't have other kids her age to follow or get excited with. To rectify these issues, I've reorganized our daily schedule so that Art is earlier in the day; and as far as the latter issue...a co-op may be in the near future!
Although the week had its scrapes and bruises, here are the more delightful moments:
On Monday Aislin had her very first ballet class, and she loved it :)

(Here's a better picture of her ballet get-up!)

The kids played with sensory bins filled with macaroni and rice (which I still need to color). What I learned from this activity is that a) I need a bigger sheet to put under them and b) a sandbox would be best. Stay tuned for a post on our upcoming backyard sandbox!

We went to a park where we picked flowers, talked about their anatomy, and played on the swings!

We had a play date on Friday that involved a buffet of chopped fruit, the girls dressed as princesses and a boy dressed in a Winnie-the-Pooh costume, and a camp out under the stairs!
And lastly, a Saturday with Daddy at the lake :)
