We learned about island, lakes. The girls were able to make their own with playdough, and we also used our land forms which were great! I give the girls free Montessori time, they can work on anything they want during this time, and Madison had pulled out different types of flowers from our Botany study, and had paired up the names. This was such a great surprise, and step to see Madison do this. Good job buddy!

Our little Camden is five now, can hardly believe it! Camden, you are absolutely wonderful, brilliant, expressive, joyful, beautiful, sensitive, exquisite, unique, happy, precious, full of wonder, sweet, loved, and amazing!

As tradition, we let our kids pick their meals on their birthday. Cam’s birthday fell on Tuesday, so we did a fun Chuck E. Cheese outing on the weekend(which we got to share with our good friends the Lintons), and then on Tuesday did the meals she wanted. So, I don’t know how I’ve gotten my kids to like hot cereal so much(I must have done something right!), but Cam wanted oatmeal for one meal, five grain cream of wheat for another meal, and pizza. We also got to go to a cute boutique shop where she got some cute little gifts, and the Winchester Science Museum! Lots of yummy cupcakes for her birthday from Costco, didn’t have any energy left to bake, which I usually love to do. She had so much fun, we love birthdays!
