We had a pretty fun day. Also on Monday, after I did my daily bible reading and lesson I started playing Christian children's songs for Ivy. So far her favorite is " Happy all the time"
You should click on the link. Its actually a very catchy tune and it puts me and her in a good mood. So we start it every morning now. Its through youtube just to let you know. Her all time favorite is Kika Kaninchen which is a channel that she use to watch when we were in the hotel. She loves the theme song and now we don't have a tv so I let her watch the theme song occasionally on my phone or on her playlist. Yes she has a youtube playlist. Mostly Christian songs, actually Kika is a christian station if I remember correctly.
Any way it rained Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday early morning. Then it was just cloudy. Ivy hadn't been to the the park in a few days so we went to the park and she played on all the equipment and I blew bubbles which if you remember from the Brussels video she loves. I even let her in the wet sand box. Here is a cute pic of her with her piggy toes in the sand!!
Wednesday she had dance class and she had a blast. She did really well to be honest. She picked up a few moves. On Wednesdays they do this stop song where the kids run around and have to do a pose or something when the song stops. Its the only thing Ivy really gets plus the circle at the beginning and the end. She is just so precious.
Thursday, we did our big art project. I am pretty excited how it turned out and she loves it. Its hanging in the kitchen. I couldn't get pics of her painting since I was supervising. I will say this, she did paint the entire paper towel roll ( I cut in half as a note). I put plastic down on the floor. We painted with water color just to be safe. I held her arm as she made the strokes and I turned the roll around until it was all painted. Then I traced her hands and foot ( since she is so young we will be doing a lot of projects right now with her hands and feet. Sorry if its so repetitive but I promise I will keep it interesting or fun at least). Any way here are a few pictures of what we created!!!
I am pretty happy with how it turned out!! I had the idea in my head and had no clue how it would turn out but I am pleased!! like I said she loves it and loves looking at it every day!!
Friday we went to the big park in town and she met a girl named Sarah who was 19 months. She had a great time playing. We rode our bike and she enjoyed the ride to town. We skipped dance class as Kevin and I deciding if we are going to sign her up for 1 day or both days. So far, from our experience, Wednesday seems to be more geared towards her age, but she loves going both days. We are contemplating trying 2 days and then going down to one in 3 months if she doesn't do well on Fridays. The contract is 3 months or a year. Either way we will do 3 months at a time.
Today, we had a slightly lazy start to our day. We organized a few things upstairs. Ivy had a blast and she found her winter hat and was walking around with it on her head just in her cloth diaper. She was supper cute I had to post some pics.
Any way, we then biked into town where she played at the big park and we met a nice family there. The wife was from Texas and the Husband was from Lithuania. They had 2 children one was 6 the other was 17 months. They gave us there business card so we can get the kids together and play, which is nice. I have another post. Just hoping Kevin emails me a video. This has happened before and I never got his video. I may try connecting his phone and downloading it on my computer. If not I will post either way by Tuesday. I will do better at posting. I have been lazy in this area to be honest. I hope you all are having a great weekend!! Talk with you soon!!!
