Our Little Readers


Photo-A-Day #3115

I was working in the kitchen this morning and took a moment to walk back to the living room. I came upon this little scene of the kids reading on the stairs. Eva is a fantastic reader. She told us the other night that a special box of more advanced books was brought to her classroom for her to read. I’m so proud. And look at Andrew. He’s so in love with his big sister and is trying to be more like her. He’s starting to identify letters now and we’re working on helping out his love for reading as well. He’s gotten very much into Curious George lately and loves his “Ooh Ooh” stories.

Today was another Skylanders day around here. I received a bunch more shipments including my Skylanders Swap Force Dark Edition from Gamestop but I’ll get to that. I received more characters as well and also this Skylanders Halloween Costume. While Eva is not going to go as Jet-Vac for Halloween it is a cute costume for her to use to play dress up. There are a bunch of Skylanders costumes available including costumes for Trigger Happy, Spyro, Gill Grunt, Crusher and Jet-Vac. I probably should have requested the Trigger Happy one since we have the MEGA Bloks Trigger Happy Coin Blasters. There was supposed to be a Jet-Vac vacuum blaster from MEGA Bloks that would go perfectly with this costume. The costume that she did get was pretty nice. It scared Andrew so I’m not sure how things are going to go for Halloween this year. Continue reading Hawk and Awww →
