Reading Phonics and Much More

I apologize that I haven't written on the blog lately, but this week has been crazy since Brooklyn has started her reading phonics. The reading phonics is a 6 week long course and basically it will get her ready to read, if she isn't reading already by the time she starts Kindergarten next year. There are about 6 courses, not including spanish. We started her in the first session that helps her recognize lower case letters in the alphabet. The course is an hour long and there is a lot of one on one with the student and spaces are limited. She had her second session today and loves it. We have little books that she takes home from her class that helps her recognize letters and words. She is doing really well and her teacher has even commented on how she picks things up pretty quickly. Today was really busy because she also has dance class after her preschool then we do something with her BFF Campbell and her mom. Today we went to the mall. We have our normal routine which is eat, then play in the play area, and finally a trip to the candy store. She loves it. After that, Brooklyn goes back to school for her reading phonics, so Wednesdays are pretty hectic around her.

So far, this week has been somewhat quiet. Madison is progressing well in her walking with the push toy. We did have a play date on Tuesday at Chic Fil A and her friend Briton was there. They have a lot of fun together and play really well. She is just happy playing with kids her age. Logan is just Logan. Each day he is saying more words. Every morning, he asks "where is Daddy" and every morning I tell him he has gone to work. His response is okay. He is so funny with some of his responses.
