Vivien has always loved activities; she honestly asks for them all the time! Her favorite current activity is painting, and it has been for a while. She likes all kinds of painting activities. She'll do the just add water painting books, she'll paint coloring book pages with watercolors, she'll paint her own design on blank paper; frankly, she'll paint anything you give her. She goes through paint almost as quickly as I get it for her!
We had our first beach day of the year this month. Although it was not real swimming weather, the kids did a lot of deep wading. The water is still quite cold, so they didn't do much more than that, but after a long Winter of no beach time, they were thrilled to get out their bathing suits and head down.
It's no surprise that Vivi was ready to go to the beach on first warm day as she loves to play outside. She got her own push bike in the fall and she loves riding it up and down the street. Almost every time we go outside, Vivi begs to be pushed on the swing in the yard, sometimes she even gets Ryder to push her, by some miracle! If we suggest a trip to the park, the beach, the woods, anything outside, she says yes and immediately starts getting ready to go.
There was a Mother's Day breakfast at school this month which I was able to attend due to fortunate timing of my prep period. The kids made muffins at school and then served them, along with juice, to us that morning. It was really cute and fun to see the kids in their own environment at school.
