Columbus Day

2011-10-12T05:43:00.001-07:00

We had a good time making our Columbus Day crafts. We colored a Christopher Columbus coloring page, we did a handprint ship craft AND we made a CC hat. Along with these pictures you will see that we did some "hot wheel" painting. The kids always love to run those little cars through the paint to see which kind of tracks they make. So it was a day full of crafts to say the least. I hope you sang the Columbus Day song with your little one after you got home. The really enjoyed it.

Beautiful Children!

2011-10-10T07:17:00.000-07:00

Here are lots and lots of pics for you to enjoy! These kids are so easy to photograph. As you can tell.....I love taking their pictures. Please do not get your feelings hurt if there aren't many pictures of your child posted.....I just take them as they come to me or as each one cooperates. No forcing involved:o)

Down on the Farm!

2011-10-09T17:43:00.001-07:00

On October 3rd we went as a group along with Mrs. Dayna's Daycare to Turtle Creek Farm. What a BLAST everyone had. I hope you enjoy these pictures. We sure missed Tristan, as he wasn't able to attend. :o(

We saw chickens...

And we got to pet them!

The kids LOVED the chickens.....some even chased them as the chickens ran away.

We saw Daisy the duck. Ahhh.....we ALL loved Daisy very much!

Wow! I'm so far behind. I'm trying....really I am. I have TONS more pictures to post. I'm working on it a little each night. Please forgive me for taking so long. Enjoy these and I'll be updating again very soon. Excuse all of the cell phone pics....they are really bad.....BUT I had to make due:o)

Since my last post a couple of new things have happened here. Baker and Mason have left us due to daycare hours conflict BUT we have gotten a brand new face and his name is Tristan!! It seems like he's been here forever.....I just love him!!

It's September!

2011-09-13T15:46:00.001-07:00

I certainly hope you guys enjoy these pictures. We had such a great time with learning our letter A and now the letter B. I have to apologize for the horrible quality of the pics. I have to use my cell phone now that I don't have a camera at all. BUT a camera will be bought very soon....I miss it so so much! (I'm trying to save to buy a good one:)

Here are the last of the Summer pictures. This wraps up August. Sorry it took so long to get them up. I'm happy to say that we have a new friend that has joined us and his name is Will. Kara is off to school now:( Enjoy that last few pics of the summer.

End of Summer Blues!!

2011-09-01T05:10:00.000-07:00

Here are a lot of pictures that I took over the month of August. I still have not replaced my camera since it was stolen. I hope to soon have one better than the last one that I had. I miss my good camera so much. So with that said, these pictures aren't the best in the world as far as quality but they are the best because they are of some very sweet little children.

I hate to see summer go, BUT I do love the fall. It is my favorite season of them all. I enjoy talking with the kids about the leaves falling all around and big fat orange pumpkins. The coolness in the air and the lighting makes me one happy camper! I do have more pictures to post from the month of August and will get those up as soon as I can. We have had a great summer. Pool time was a hit and of course digging in the dirt is one of their favorite things to do. Please accept my apologies for the dirty finger nails and dirty clothes but how could I tell them NO to something that they love to do so much and it doesn't harm them whatsoever. :o)

Mason smiling like always

Gannon and Parker with dirty faces

Someone turns 1 today!

2011-08-17T10:00:00.000-07:00

Mason Is 1 today!!

2011-07-26T17:04:00.000-07:00

Well this is my first blog post in a long time. Its good to be back:) We have been having a super duper summer so far. I simply cannot believe its already the end of July. Vacation is over for most and it won't be long and that big yellow school bus will be stopping here to pick up my kids first thing in the mornings. BUT first we are going to enjoy the rest of our summer together. Madi has done a great job helping me out while she's been home. She loves to help with circle time and crafts. She's a GREAT diaper changer too! These pictures are from today. We made an adorable crab with our handprints. I found a cute poem to go along with it. We had some pool time as well today. Most of the children agree that the little pool is so much fun!

Ready for our craft!

Gannon's hands in the red paint

Daniel doing his

There's Vinny's

Emily likes to do most of the crafts on her own. She's a big girl

Pool time

Tupperware makes for great pool toys

And you were wondering where baby Mason was.....right beside me:o)

Our finished project! I love summertime crafts:o)

A big change!

2010-11-17T04:26:00.000-08:00

This post is just to let everyone know that I'm making a big change. Yes! I am in the process of making a Facebook page for my daycare and I will no longer use this blog to update photos, etc. Facebook is so much easier to use and upload to, AND I can control who's looking at these little faces:o) So, if you don't have a facebook page, it's really easy......GO GET ONE! :o) I will be updating photos daily on there as well as updating on what we're doing. I would love for you to use this page to update me as far as dates for the weeks, etc. So, like I said, if you don't have a FB, get one so you can keep up with daycare. Search for Lisa's daycare and ask to be my friend if I haven't already asked you!! Thanks!

A little catching up!

2010-10-18T14:21:00.000-07:00

Here's a slideshow for you! I'm sorry that I'm so far behind. I've included lots of pics but not all of them. I will catch them up soon. We are having a great time as always. Two new additions to our daycare family. Baker now has a little brother and his name is Mason. He is sweet as sugar! Vinny is another new kid on the block.....sweet as sugar too! So Mrs. Lisa's daycare is full and full is fun:o)

A week!

2010-09-15T06:40:00.000-07:00

Sorry its taken me a while to get a new post up. I have been working on them little by little. These are the pictures from A week. We had a good time learning about the letter A.

All smiles at lunch time!

Outside play has been great with this wonderful weather. Its certainly not too hot and we've enjoyed being out.

Kara enjoys playing with the trucks just like the boys do!

Sponge painting our heart with the color green

We made this cute apple. The kids enjoyed counting the seeds as we glued them on.

Summer Wrap-up!

2010-09-08T07:21:00.000-07:00

Well the summer is over and its back to school for all of the big kids. Here at Daycare we will begin with the letter A and work our way through the alphabet week by week. I will also be helping the children learn their colors, shapes and numbers. So to the big kids......HAVE A SUPER DUPER YEAR and we will do the same here at daycare!

A picnic in the park

We enjoyed some time in the pool today. Baker absolutely loves it and Mikala and Kyra are like little fish. The water felt like bath water....nice and warm. Jacob and Madi are such a great help to me during the summer. I appreciate them so much!

Summer days!

2010-07-07T13:15:00.000-07:00

I want to go ahead and apologize for these pictures being uploaded in the wrong order. I realized it after I did it and I'm being lazy and not re-doing it. The first set is of Kara, Gage, Baker and Madi in the sprinkler that Kara and Gage's grandma brought. Baker was certainly not too fond of it but Kara and Gage loved it. It was a nice hot day perfect for playing in the water. The others are just of the kids playing outside and then a couple of our 4th of July crafts. I'm going to really try hard and not get behind on my blog posts. Enjoy these cutie pics!
