Joy School: Painting Cookies

I taught Joy School today & we did such a fun activity!  It was inspired by something I saw on Pinterest, of course!  We made their names (& some other fun shapes) out of sugar cookie dough, baked them, then painted them with Sweet & Condensed Milk & food coloring.  They had such a fun time!  Probably one of my favorite activities we've done.


We're working in our "Imagination" unit & I told them the story of Goldie Locks & the 3 Bears on Tuesday.  So today we acted the story out.  They loved it!  It was so fun watching them act out each part.  I love this age!

Today we got together with another set of twins! Caden & Addison are just a month younger than Nathan & Alexa and were born at Texas Women's also!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...
