Tot School ~ Doc McStuffins

~ Ladybug is 41 Months Old ~Tot-School


It was Doc McStuffins week at our house!  Most of our official school work shown below came from my Doc McStuffins Tot Pack…

Doc Mcstuffins Tot Pack

Krash jumped in on much of the action, which was fun.  He enjoys Doc too {although he might not admit that to you}.  Here they were playing memory together {I was assisting too, to keep the fighting under control}.Doc McStuffins Theme-1678

Roll and Graph Game…Homeschool-1701

Matching heads and tails…Doc McStuffins Theme-1685

She loved the few coloring pages I printed for her, and also her magnetic Doc characters.Doc McStuffins Theme-1688

The worksheets in her notebook were a big hit too.  Here she was following the letter D…Doc McStuffins Theme-1689

Coloring shapes…Homeschool-1703

She traced her ABCs and was singing her ABCs when I snapped this!  I wish it had sound!Doc McStuffins Theme Week-1723

She loved the simple tracing pages…Doc McStuffins Theme Week-1726

The Doc McStuffins Sensory and Imagination Bin was a BIG hit!Doc McStuffins Sensory bin

Our schoolroom revolved around the Doc theme for the week so animals were getting medical care non-stop!Doc McStuffins Theme-1657

Doc McStuffins Theme-1670

Doc McStuffins Theme-1662 Doc McStuffins Theme-1664

The Webkinz box itself was a big hit.  She actually spent time like this every single day.  Some days she would sit in the box and doctor the animals.Doc McStuffins Theme-1698


We are taking our All About Reading Pre Level 1 lessons slowly.  I am not expecting mastery from Ladybug, just using this program as a way to expose her to the Big Five Skills.

We took the summer off of All About Reading and that turned out to be a good thing.We started back this week, and she breezed through several lessons with me!  She was really catching on and loving every moment! All About Reading-1788

She was VERY into Ziggy, which was nice since in the past he has been hit or miss with her.All About Reading-1791

Since we didn’t do AAR for many weeks, she was “behind” on many of the letter pages.  She chose to color all of them in one sitting, with Ziggy!All About Reading-1803

She asked to get out our letter construction set, and we built tons of letters together!Homeschool Tot School-1730

Her favorite letter, she always gets all excited when she finds a letter L…Homeschool Tot School-1728

Jumping to letters…Jump to Letters

She has a My Little Pony coloring book and probably colored about 10 pages this week!Homeschool Tot School-1778

Building with Stacking Pegs…Homeschool Tot School-1808


Techy-Tot_thumb4

I have begun to incorporate some of her iPad learning games into our morning routine.  She loves to be with me, so I sit her near me and she “works” while I “work” for about 15 minutes.  Here she was playing Teach Me Toddler {one of the best .99 apps we have}Homeschool Tot School-1737

Another awesome .99 app, BINGO Junior…Homeschool Tot School-1743

We were thrilled to grab Bugs and Bubbles when it was on sale for  .99 one day last week {normally 2.99}.  This is SUCH a neat app, I recommend it, even at full price!  Ladybug loves all of the levels, but especially likes the free drawing on the window portion.  One night she sat and drew for almost an hour, showing me tons!  I snapped screen shots of my favs!

This is a zebra…IMG_6134

This is her…IMG_6135

Then she turned the iPad around and shocked me, showing me that she wrote her letters! She writes her name all of the time, but has never written any other letters, so this was a bit of a surprise for me!  She asked me for help with the B, but that’s it!IMG_6101

  • Krash is using the Draw, Write, Now books for his 1st grade and Ladybug is very interested in these books and drawing.  She asks me to teach her.  We sat down and did the whale one night, she followed what I was doing on the board, but did this on her own.  I helped her with the letters W, A, and E at the top {and obviously spelled it for her}.IMG_6119

Gymnastics class week 2 was another huge success!  She just loves it, and I love watching her enjoy it so much!  Taking photos through the glass, with a phone doesn’t produce the best results, but it was the best I could do!IMG_6103

My Fern is so beautiful. Still my favorite cat eve My Fern is so beautiful. Still my favorite cat ever. And that’s saying a lot!

I’m not very active on this account anymore mostly because my older kids don’t like to be photographed. I am passionate about fostering kittens and my foster kitten account @crazy_foster_kitten_lady is where I spend most of my Instagram time now.

I’ll share here every now and then, but I’m on the kitten account daily!
Have you ever seen Ivy Kids Kits? There are SO man Have you ever seen Ivy Kids Kits? There are SO many monthly kits for kids on the market now, but this one remains my favorite! We have partnered with @ivykidskits for many years and although my kids are now too old for them, I still spread the word!

This video shows a peek inside of a recent kit they sent us, Kermit the Hermit. You can buy individual kits or buy a monthly subscription!

It was a Christmas filled with many emotions. Joy, It was a Christmas filled with many emotions. Joy, happiness, excitement, surprise, sadness, longing, and a bit of emptiness. 

We celebrated with my parents on the 24th, and that was a very joyous celebration. We enjoyed church, gifts, food, and mostly one another. 

On the 25th we celebrated with my husband’s family and sadly we are missing our beloved Nana who went to be with Jesus a few weeks ago. We all did our best to honor her love for fun last night. We played games, we laughed, we ate well, but it was all mixed with a longing sadness, wishing we had her with us. 

The next to last photo is it Kyler and my father in law, who lost his very best friend. We just love him so much and pray for his continued healing as he grieves this horrible loss and emptiness. 

The final photo is of Nana’s grandkids each holding their collage of photos of them and their Nana. This gift brought some tears, but we can tell will be treasured by each of them. She was one of a kind, and so special to all six of them.
Paxton won the gift award this year. Swipe to see Paxton won the gift award this year. Swipe to see what he bought his little sis! She was SO surprised! He loves giving gifts and having a job the enables him to do surprises like this is a gift to him. Sweet moments. ❤️

Tree decorating night! Goodness I love my kids. Tree decorating night! Goodness I love my kids.
I know many of you don’t know many of the people I know many of you don’t know many of the people in this photo, but I know many of you pray. The beautiful woman on the far left of the couch is my bonus-momma, my husband’s mom. She has stopped all treatment for her cancer and is going home to be with Jesus soon. We prayed for her to feel well enough to be with us at Thanksgiving, and though she felt pretty crappy, she was there. 

If you know her, you know what I mean when I say this is one of the kindest, most joyful, selfless people I have ever known. The world won’t be the same without her. We are devastated and hurting. We pray for her peace, her comfort, her pain, and for God to relieve her of the suffering. 

Last night was a huge mixture of pure joy and devastating sadness. We celebrated and hugged, and laughed, and we cried. It’s just so hard. Thanks for praying for our family. ❤️

Mabel has turned out to be the most entertaining c Mabel has turned out to be the most entertaining cat we have ever had. She is sweet and sassy, mischievous and marvelous. Equal parts of each. She annoys all of our other animals just like a little sister should and keeps the humans on our toes too. She LOVES Lili, and is still BFF with Pebbles (Lili’s cat). So glad we decided to add this rambunctious ball of fluff to our crew!
