Lego Club and Reading Class, again!
This morning, Brian and I had another double-activity morning, with a Lego Club meeting (Chima-themed), followed by his reading class at NC State. Brian is really surprising me with how well he’s doing with his reading! When he’s able to pay attention and stay on task, that is. 😉 He still likes to visit the fountain after class, just like last year. Brandon and Kendall had a significantly less fun morning. Kendall’s lingering cough seemed so much worse today, that Brandon...
Read MoreMeet the Teacher Day
Today was Brian’s last day of Lego camp, and his last day of summer camps, period! He was hiding under the table when we came to pick him up, but he got to make and keep a minifigure, so that made saying goodbye a little easier. 😉 This morning before camp, we took Brian over to Root for Meet the Teacher day, where we all got to meet his new teacher, Mrs. Hounwanou. She’s new to Root, coming here all the way from Kansas City. She seems very nice, and we had a great talk with her...

Brian is at Lego Camp this week, which he seems to like a whole lot! He’s been spending the mornings with Grandma Sue and Grandpa Steve. Today Grandma even hooked him up with a popsicle at Pullen Park before camp! As is usually the case, he didn’t really want to leave he was having so much fun building with his new buddies. After camp, Brian went to town on the Play-Doh, and Kendall was more than happy to help, once she arrived home! We presented Brian with a new book, based...
Read MoreBrian’s Bow and Arrow
Today after Lego Camp, Brian got inspired to make something (as he often does)! Today’s creation was a popsicle stick, scotch tape, and rubber band bow, a popsicle stick arrow, and a highly decorated target made from easel paper, complete with different scoring regions. Of course he then had to try out his creation! He really did get his arrow to hit the target a few times. Very cool creation, Brian! While we were playing, Brandon and Kendall were at the grocery store. They got...
Read MoreAfter School
We picked up Brian from Lego Camp today and he was excited to show us the taco he’d made from a paper plate and construction paper! He loves the Benny poster in the camp room (he has one of his own, but we haven’t put it up in his room yet!) Brian had skating lessons this afternoon, so Kendall and I had some girl time! She was happy to see me when I picked her up, and showed me her Lego creation! I was amazed at the group of 2-year-olds sitting and playing so nicely with their...
