Miss Jacy (again!)

I traded weeks with Cheri so I didn't get quite the break I deserve, but I am looking forward to my 9 week break before I have the kiddos again! Just kidding... I love those kids to bits! They are playing so much better together now than they did in the beginning of the year. They look out for each other and stick up for the one who is not being treated fairly. I love that! These are the most important lessons they will learn. They are really sweet to each other (most of the time).

Tuesday, we played and played, made gingerbread men, and played some more. Here are some pictures. Denise- I really don't have a clue why he was pouting. I couldn't get it out of him. It was just so cute though. I told him to "hold that face" while I grabbed the camera.

Thursday was "do whatever the heck you want to" day. They loved it! I was in an easy going mood that day so I just let them do whatever. Surprisingly, they were pretty mellow. They wanted to play outside most of the time and when I told them to pick what they wanted for snack... they all agreed on oranges. Go figure!

They were pretending that the swingset thingee was a pirate ship. They used Carson's binoculars to look out for other pirates or "bad guys". The boys brought their guns on the ship to protect Princess Taryn. It was a perfect day to be outside. I really enjoyed the kids today. They were all so good to each other.
