New Arrival.

 We are thrilled to welcome Yum to the family! This is our new little guy William who I'll call Yum for our blog. "Yum" is how Bee says his name so it's going to stick. This is us at the hospital waiting to be discharged.

 The grandma's keeping up with our reading. : )

 Bee taking a peek at Yum's first bath. He really wanted in on the action!

Big Brother Bee giving Yum some kisses and playing with him. : )

Tot School Lately!

It's Been a crazy couple of weeks! Bee is now a BIG BROTHER!!! So Tot School posts might be infrequent for a little while. Here are a couple from the past month. 

 Bee cutting his wooden food. He loves to practice this important life skill.

 Bee using the Shapes Tot Pack that I made for him and practicing sorting and naming his shapes.

playing with the xylophone at gymboree!

 On a walk before baby joined us!

 Bee playing in the sand,

 Working on rolling out his play-doh.  There was a lot of help in this area!

Painting (a favorite activity of ours).

Using the paintbrush sorting file folder game one morning. I can't remember at the moment whose blog I found that on but it's a great resource and Bee loves his "matching" games. :)

He's here!

William Joseph joined our family March 25th at 4:45 AM. Yay!!!

It's been a while!

It's been a while since I've posted. Baby 2 has not arrived yet but with the last month of pregnancy has come exhaustion!! So when I'm not playing with Bee, cleaning, or running errands I'm napping or just laying on the couch. We are still keeping up with TotSchool just not doing too much new stuff.  Really just working diligently on things that we haven't mastered like numbers and shapes. 

We now know circle, heart, star, and rectangle (most of the time).  Bee can match all his shapes but we are still working on naming them all.  Bee will also repeat every number after you 1-10 (except 3).  So we're working on him counting by himself.  It typically goes something like this... "1...2...2...8....9...8....9...." But hey, progress is progress.  We've also started trying to get Bee to sing more with us rather than just us singing the songs.  So during Row your Boat. Bee will say boat, stream, and dream at the end of each part. : )  He's also trying to sing this "peek a boo" song that we sing at gymboree on his own and it's pretty entertaining. : )

I'll try to do an actual Tot School post with pictures and all soon, but I can't guarantee anything! We haven't uploaded pictures to the computer in... two or three weeks!
