Two Approaches to Story Time

This blog entry is dedicated to all the teachers in our family and lives. I commend you on your approaches to the many different learning styles of students! I was finally able to catch Lucy "reading" out loud (first video). This is one of the cutest things that I have seen her do to-date. I just love it! This is the only time that she "speaks" like this. It is her unique reading voice. The second video shows Claire's flair for reading, a bit different than Lucy's. This active gal prefers to sit on and/or eat the books. Her favorite book is, of course, the one that plays music. Come on Mom, those other ones are boring!

Beach Bums

The girls had their first trip to the beach on Sunday. It was a little too chilly for them to swim but they absolutely adored kicking their feet in the waves. Claire was a little skeptical of the sand, even after eating it. Lucy was quite the explorer, venturing far off the blanket to check out her new surroundings. We rounded off the afternoon with cheeseburgers at Redamak's. Judd and I agreed, it was the perfect day!
