6 months old





Naomi is 6 months old! Half a year old already! It's so crazy how fast time flies!! Here are some updates on Naomi:

* She is in the 10% percentile for weight and 16% for length. Aunt Katie's nickname "Peanut" is quite fitting!



*She has started solid foods...those of you who know me know that I really didn't want this to start; for many reasons really. Reason 1- I can't believe she's already grown up enough to eat solid food. Reason 2- I use cloth diapers and I'm really not a fan of 'real' poo! Here are some pictures of her first 'meal'- peas.



As you can tell, she really enjoyed it. She still isn't eating much, but that's ok! :)

*Naomi now turns around when you call her name! So cool!

*She went on her first swing set while I was tracked out. She had a ball! You can tell by the video that she is just taking everything in!


*Another first- Naomi took her first bath in the big girl tub! 



Our little sweetheart is growing up so fast!

Bunny

About a year ago I got a bunny as my classroom pet. I have wanted a Netherland Dwarf bunny for quite some time because of their cute ears and they stay small. Small bunny = perfect for classoom life. So after the beloved Max (my old guinea pig) left us, I knew now was the time to get a bunny! Thank goodness my sister Anna looks on Craigs List all the time for animals because she actually found a Netherland Dwarf Bunny that was up for adoption! YAY! I got her a couple of days after I found the post and was so excited. The kids decided to name her Maddi after a character in the book Fever 1793 . If you like historical fiction books,  you should check it out because it's really good! Little did I know that bunnies are full of personality! On her first day home she bit me 3 times and got me 2 times with her nails. Good thing is now she likes me (most of the time) and is much more friendly! She lets the kids in the class pet her and feed her. She also hops around the classroom....

Christmas Parade

Because I'm a sucker for parades so we took Naomi to her first Christmas parade! It was a very nice day out! We tried Naomi's sunglasses on her...but they didn't stay on long! Every time a band passed Naomi was completely enthralled in them! Future band nerd in the making! :)

Sun

We started our study of Space with the Sun. We first read Genesis 1:14-19 and talked about how God created the Sun and the Moon. We then watched this very cute video made by Story Bots. If you haven't seen this show on Netflix, I highly recommend it! I ordered this book off of Amazon and we read the portions about the sun together. Next we read a poem about the sun and they colored a picture of the sun. For Math, we sorted pictures of the Sun, Moon, and Earth. Naomi and Isaiah took turns counting how many of each object we had. Isaiah continued counting, while Naomi started to add. How many Suns and Moons are there? How many Moons and Earths are there? Very cute activity that you can find here .  For phonics Naomi and I played this game to practice CVC words. We each drew 5 cards and tried to find a place to put them that made an actual word. We were able to play this game a couple of times! I was very surprised at how much fun Naomi had playing this! When we were finished playing...
