~Ladybug is currently 30 months old~

Tot School Printables U is for Umbrella

Letter: Uu

Object: Umbrella

Vocabulary Development Theme: Weather

You can find the printables for this unit here on the Tot School Printables webpage.

We didn’t expand the theme this week since we had a Monster theme instead! Here’s a peek at some of the Letter Uu activities she wanted to do {and I managed to snap photos of}.

Her shelves were mostly MONSTER themed, with a few random items!

On her shelves…  IMG_5091

  • top shelf…Monster Sensory Bin and Monster Books
  • top left shelf…Make a Monster with Stickers {stickers are from old balloon kits}
  • top middle shelf…Mini Monster Notebooks and pencils
  • top right shelf…Monster Puzzle {Target $1 last year}
  • bottom left…Ping Pong Balls, tongs transfer
  • bottom middle…Pouring beads
  • bottom right…Mini pipe cleaners into tiny holes {not even sure what the white thing is, some sort of kitchen straining item}

She loves pouring.  The pitcher is from Ikea, she’s pouring random beads into a silver tin.IMG_5154

Using her tongs to transfer ping pong balls into a paint tray…IMG_5157

Poking thin pipe cleaners into a kitchen strainer thing…IMG_5276

She played a lot with the nesting blocks as you can see from her outfits below!  IMG_5220

She finally mastered stacking them all in order on her own!  Very proud girl!

Stacking pegs came out a lot too…IMG_5089

A little Connect Four, played toddler style {no rules}…IMG_5282

Building with the tubes…IMG_5328

Wedgits are still a favorite too…IMG_5346

We had a fun monster week around here!  Our Create-A-Monster Sensory Bin was a BIG hit with Ladybug!  She made MANY monsters and came up with some really cute creations

IMG_5123  IMG_5135

We pulled out our Monster Tot Pack {I LOVE being able to just pull folders out of things I already printed for Krash in the past!}.  She matched monsters to their shapes in our mini pocket chart…IMG_5194

Matching dot colors, this was a bit challenging for her!IMG_5196

We sang a silly little song about which shape was on top of the monster’s head.IMG_5200

Ordering monsters by size…IMG_5201

She enjoyed dot painting monsters, both from Our Little Monkeys and 2 Teaching Mommies.IMG_5209

IMG_5707

She also used them for cutting practice!IMG_5718

She loved matching the monsters.  I made this for Krash years ago.  Just took a pack of stickers and stuck one set down and laminated the cut up other set for matching.IMG_5715

I also had left over monster making sets from K’s monster theme so she made one too.  The one on the top was made by Krash  years ago!IMG_5713

We used many left over balloon face sticker sheets we had to create monsters together.  This was a favorite of L-bug this week!

IMG_5265  IMG_5268

IMG_5271

We have a monster puzzle that Krash used for his monster week when he was a tot, she worked on it with me a few times!IMG_5279

 

Her favorite of the week was by far coloring Boo.  She watched Monster’s Inc. with us at the beginning of the week and fell in love with Boo.  She didn’t care much for any scenes without Boo to be honest!  I printed many Boo pictures from this site and she colored a total of 7 throughout the week.IMG_5262

IMG_5311   IMG_5183

I don’t ever want to forget her obsessive coloring so I gathered them all for a group shot…

Of course, Ladybug still plays our iPad, often sitting in our bean bag.  This past week, she has spent most of her time playing Tozzle, Monkey Preschool, and Park Math.  She is still determined to figure out Monkey Math, which is Krash’s game, but it is a bit too hard for her. IMG_5379

People tell me all the time that we look so much alike, I take it as an extreme compliment, because I think my girl is adorable!  I can really see the resemblance in this shot from the pumpkin patch!  I love her happy smile!IMG_5652

I turned 47 last week and we celebrated tonight wi I turned 47 last week and we celebrated tonight with my parents! Fun evening out to eat sushi together and then to my parent’s house for some fun birthday gifts - mostly cat stuff!!! ❤️😻❤️ It’s not often all three kids can be in the same place like this so we grabbed some pictures! So thankful for my people!

Remember when I mentioned that Pebbles liked Mabel Remember when I mentioned that Pebbles liked Mabel and that’s one of the main reasons Mabel became a forever family member? Here’s the proof. How cute are they?

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, Mabel is In case you haven’t figured it out yet, Mabel is a forever member of our family. ❤️ Yes, we are crazy, but we are OK with that!

Mabel brings so much joy and fits so perfectly in addition to being one of the most beautiful kittens ever. She is technically my daughter’s cat, she matches her short hair calico - Pebbles, and this is the only kitten Pebbles has ever liked and accepted. That’s one of the main reasons she’s staying. Mabel and Pebbles both sleep in Lili’s room and get along fabulously. We never thought Lili would ever be able to get another cat because Pebbles is very possessive of Lili, but then Mabel came along and shocked us all! We knew we had a special kitten when Pebbles liked her!

Mabel gets along with our other cats and our dogs too, and she is super brave, friendly, playful, and snuggly. It was impossible to even imagine her ever leaving our home. Her staying was a family decision, actually led by my husband! We enjoy our kitties so much.
This is Sarah - my bonus daughter - and her new hu This is Sarah - my bonus daughter - and her new husband Jake. And their new son - Dipper!!! We have had Dipper here an extra long time until they could get down here to pick him up from PA! I am SO excited for them, he is the perfect cat and will be so spoiled! His name may be changed, but for now he’s still Dipper! 

For those of you who have been around awhile, she’s part of the “Philly friends” family who come to visit several times a year. ❤️

We are busy with so much right now, most importantly final prep to leave for nationals in Arizona tomorrow! This past weekend he was presented with an award from his coach(with him in this pic) - Athlete of the Year, which is really special. He heads to nationals tomorrow in good shape, feeling confident! 

@kyler_hinson I am so proud of you for so many reasons! Seeing you fight so hard through continual pain the past few years has shown such a strength of character, determination, dedication, and perseverance. I love the man you are becoming and am so thankful to be your mom. 

We have a fun week ahead of us and I’m so excited to be by your side. ❤️ #krashthegymnast
He’s 20 today. Lives on his own, with an AMAZING He’s 20 today. Lives on his own, with an AMAZING job, managing adult-ing beautifully, constantly making me smile when I think of his perseverance, determination, commitment, and ambition. I can’t put into words how proud I am of this man of mine. My son, my baby.

Happy birthday @paxtoroni ❤️ I pray you know how loved you are.
In case you missed their intro in my stories, I’ In case you missed their intro in my stories, I’d like you to meet the new fluffy trio! Named by my daughter and her friend after characters in the show Gravity Falls. 

Mabel (calico, girl)
Dipper (white/gray, boy)
Soos (tabby, boy)

They are so adorable and came at the perfect time to bring healing after we lost Bruno. ❤️

My guess is about 5-6 weeks old, and they will probably be in foster for about a month, the smallest weighing 1 pound, 3 ounces. 

The look like little dust bunnies flopping around the room, they are so round and fluffy!

Our youngest child is 13. I’m not sure how that Our youngest child is 13. I’m not sure how that happened. We celebrated Lili today with our best friends from Philadelphia here to visit for the weekend! She opened her presents from us, and loved on our new fluffy foster kittens. Her wish was to foster a fluffy set of kittens and that wish came true yesterday!

So thankful for this awesome kid of mine. She is such a blessing to me and inspires me continually. She is strong, compassionate, brave, unique, artistically talented beyond belief, and I just love being her mom.
8 weeks old today!!! We are in the final countdown 8 weeks old today!!! We are in the final countdown of our time together! 

Bruno and Camilo are both snuggle bugs and love to curl up on laps, or up by my chin. They both love to play hard and they still love momma’s milkies (especially Bruno). Camilo is a round plump potato weighing 1 lb, 13 ounces. Bruno is a bit skinnier (1 lb, 9.5 ounces) because he’s been having some tummy issues but he’s doing better. They won’t leave me until both are 2 lbs and 100% healthy. I’m assuming a little over a week from now.
