November

Campbell built a barn for her My Little Ponies. Complete with a mail box/mail, windows, and door. Love her creations!

This month, Blake finally started getting interested in art. Every day when I pick him up from school, he's proud to show me what he made and makes sure we take it home. 

The first coloring he brought home that was more than 1 scribble. He took some time on  this one!

Gluing clothes onto a paper doll. Love how the kite is glued to its head.

Art with Kool-Aid. Blake kept wanting to lick it. Ick!

Random Campbell: 

• One night, Campbell comes out of bed crying, "All I can think about is I don't want to move away when I go to college."
• One night while Gabe was traveling for work, we went out to dinner at Quodba. Campbell got dressed up, packed her purse with chap stick and her money. When we got to the checkout she insisted on paying for dinner. And thoughtfully gave the cashier a penny tip. She's growing up!
• Campbell is doing great with Spanish. Her teacher says that she already understands most of what she's saying. 
• Fun to hear her talking about math...randomly she'll say things like "3+3. 2+4. 1+5, are all ways to get to 6."
• All of a sudden she started reading words she saw. It's really fun to see it starting to click. Especially since school is 100% Spanish. Some of the first words she's noticed and read: 
• Vote
• Exit
• The Nose 'Bok' (instead of book)
