Sept 4 - 15 = I'm T-I-DoubleG - ER, Solar Oven, terantula, more school room, and new chores

Sept. 4
Rue is on a "Pooh kick".
She would go around pushing Joel over and declaring...
 
I'm T - I - Double G - eR
 
And he would reply,
 
"Yes, I know, you've bounced me before."
 
Teaching colors
and patterns
 
Joel became very interested in Solar ovens.
So we improvised.
It worked pretty good.
 
We learned that you HAD to keep it pointed at the maximum reflection of the sun.
 
And keep the dish AIR TIGHT.
Black dishes with glass lids worked best.
 
She LOVES to play radio show,
and finds any pair of headphones that she can,
to sing and chatter.
 
 
 
 
August 5
 
Playing "Angry Birds"
Yeah, really.
 
 
 
 
August 7
 
Sleeping Sunshine.
Doesn't it just make your heart melt?
 
 
 
 
August 8
 
playing trains.
These two play together nicely ...
most of the time,
if not being "bounced".
 
 
Progress on the school room.
Can you tell the difference from the last set of pictures?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
August 9
 
A friend gave Kendra an early Christmas/late birthday present
Giraffe knife set.
 
 
 
 
 
August 10
 
Her school paper.
She asked for a snowman paper.
 
Trying on her baby hat.
 
She has been feeding our dog lately.
She was upset because I wouldn't give her more food for the dog.
 
Explaining that the dish was empty.
 
Giving up and giving her a drink instead.
 
 
 
 
August 10/11
 
I took this picture just after midnight.
What a surprise to find on your door step.
 
 
 
August 13
 
Joel was delighted with it.
We thought we had found him a home,
but tried to keep it fed and happy in the meantime.
 
The flaps and handle made holes into the container - it had plenty of air.
Joel named him "Sam I Am"
 
But within a few hours of eating a grasshopper,
it died.
 
 
 
 
 
August 14
 
Joel's Jack in a Box
 
 
 
 
August 15
 
Big girls can manage their own TV shows.
More Pooh.
or Blue's Clues.
