Old McDonald

When I saw this I knew I had to make one. Eiz takes this with her everywhere and loves to show off her barn. We will sing "Old McDonald" some of the time, but most often she likes to play with it by herself.

I found this idea over at Oopsey Daisy. She has some really neat ideas. Go check it out.

I just stuck a ziplock bagon with double side stick tape.

Felt Board

Who doesn't love felt boards?

I decided to make Eiz a board so that she would have different ways to learn. They were a lot of fun to make and Eiz loved to play with them.

5 Green and Speckled Frogs

Ice Cream can be used to learn counting and colors.

I thought the patterns for these were so cute.

The Itsy Bitsy Spider

I found all the patterns for the boards here.

Yost Lake Fishing

It wouldnt be summer without fishing!!

Aunt Cassidy came too. She left a few days later for Jamaica and wont be back until the middle of August.

Counting Cucumbers

Tanner and I have planted a garden the last couple of years with some luck. We end up eating a few tomatoes, some green beans and a lot of cucumbers. I mean A LOT!! We eat them plain, we eat them in salad, we even make pickles and we will cant keep up.

Saturday morning I got up with Eiz and realized that we still had a mound on the kitchen table. As I was trying to figure out what I was going to do with them, Eiz came up with her own idea. She would move them from the table to the window. Back and forth, back and forth.

She was having so much fun.

When she got tired of playing in the window she decided that it would be fun to count them with Daddy. So they sat on the floor and counted out 6 cucumbers. She did this for half and hour.

She is one strong little girl! :)

The end result of the 6 cucumbers. Yummy pickles.
