Week B

Last week was our week devoted to the letter B and I had fun finding things to keep us going. It ended up having a lot to do with baking but we found some stuff to get the wiggles out too.

Our verse for the week was:

But God commendeth HIS love toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
Leroy likes to practice along with Phi so they both get in on the fun.
Phi "rode" his Bike. He doesn't actually pedal much yet, but he can steer, so I hook him by rope to the stroller and we go, it makes more room in the stroller for the other two.

And thanks to some ideas from Amma or Gramma Jo we should say, we also wore a Band-Aid sporting the letter B.

Leroy gets in on this too, we'll see how much sticks.

And by the river at Grandpa and Grandma's found a stick that had been chewed on by a Beaver!
When we got back up to the house Gramma Jo read him a story about how Beavers make there dens and such.

Toward the end of the week we made Bread, in the Bread machine. We should do this more often as the process fascinated all of them. Jeffy was mesmerized by the paddle going around to mix the dough.

Phi's favorite part of course was punching it down.

This one was fun for mommy too cause it burned lots of their energy, they Bounced on a Blow-up Bed. We've been saving this bed for some rainy day ever since we got a new one since this one doesn't hold air for more than an hour. I hadn't thought of this before but it was perfect.

Then we added Balls for even more fun!

We also made Bran muffins one morning and,

had Bananas and Blueberries on our puff pancake another morning.

We sang "The B-I-B-L-E" song and picked out the letters he knew. We also took Baths with Bubbles but since that has to happen more than once a year it wasn't quite as much of a novelty.

And when the free adds came on Wednesday we did our cut and paste page and letter recognition and finding pictures of things that start with B.

It must have been sinking in cause by Sunday as we were driving he asked from the back, "Momma, does Bus stop start wis' B?"

We're on to C this week though we still practice all the letter verses together at our morning readings as Leroy's favorite is the A verse "All have sinned...".
