Pictures of Simon and Lillian from CCC end of June

HI Alan and Emily,

The past two weeks have been so busy and fun here at CCC. We have been really enjoying our water play days and running around on the playground. We also look forward to our enrichment classes, especially our cooking classes. Last week, we made a red, white and blue yogurt parfait using strawberries, blueberries and yogurt. This week we made cinnamon apply twirlies using tortillas, cream cheese, apples and cinnamon. Our yoga/movement classes have been becoming better and we are working hard to balance our bodies and stretch our limbs. What a great summer we've been having!

Enjoy!

4th of July 2016

After a very long 4th of July weekend, we spent the day primarily hiding in the air conditioning and relaxing. We did pop over to Jenn's house just to get out of the house for a bit...

June 2016 Pictures

It's been a really busy month! With Emily's Birthday, Simon's Birthday, Lillian starting Day Care, Simon finishing Pre-K and starting Day Care and (finally) getting the half walls finished in the basement.  Not to mention the amazing, beautiful weather!

Here are some pictures:

Lillian's 2nd and 3rd week at CCC

Hi Emily and Alan,

The past two weeks have been so busy and fun here at CCC. We have been enjoying lots of summer activities like water play, outdoor play, and enrichment classes. Last week, we made fruit smoothies for our cooking class, it was so great to help add the ingredients to the blender and even better to drink it up! This week, we made our own vanilla ice cream! We were so excited to make this, but our little arms and hands got tired very quickly from all of the shaking, so our teachers had to shake it up for us. We really enjoyed eating our ice cream, though!

Enjoy!


Simon starts DayCare at CCC with Lillian

Simon's last day of Pre-K with Ms Zairel was on Tuesday. He started at the same day care that Lillian is going to on Wednesday, CCC (Children's Creative Center). He has been there 3 days and they've been doing great. I didn't realize how much Lillian would enjoy having Simon there. She plays with him all day and when they go to the park he pushes her on the swing. It makes me so happy that they have this time to bond together.

Hi Emily and Alan,

Simon has had such a great first week here at CCC and we are so thrilled to have him. He became acclimated right away and already has a good friend he looks forward to playing with. Simon has enjoyed working on summer art projects like painting with bright colors that we will later turn into a flower. He also enjoyed his very first enrichments classes and especially had a great time with making ice cream in our cooking class!

Enjoy!


That is Lillian right next to him!

Simon's Last Month of Pre-K

Finally Simons birthday project.

Because he was sick we missed Simon's birthday project at school. This year he asked if we could plant as a class. We brought basil plants and pots to school and Simon got to hand them out while the kids played in the dirt. Ms Zairel squeezed in his project on the second to last day of school!
