Time with Em!

Luke has been in school for two and a half weeks now. The first few days I think Emma really missed him. Although I am sure she would never admit that. :) Emma and I have gotten to spend a lot of quality time together. She loves it and so do I. We have been working on learning shapes. We've used play dough to make shapes, we've read books about shapes and we've practiced drawing squares, circles and triangles. She is really good at those circles. :) At lunch one day we were eating macaroni and cheese and Emma said, "Look mom! I am eating crescents. " Then the next day she said, "Look! It's a circle moon! I like the macaroni moon better." :) cute girl. She is really getting it.

We have also been working on counting. Pointing at one object and counting it. She is getting much better at this and she is counting to 50. We've also been doing a few crafts as well. We are having lots of fun together.

In the afternoons we've been going up to the pool. Emma has become quite the little swimmer. She is swimming about 10-12 meters without her swimmies. She is even jumping off the diving board without them as well. I love this time we get to spend together at the pool. I think she loves the water as much as I do.

Here are a couple videos of her swimming and of her jumping in. I still need to get her jumping off the board. I am usually in the deep end with her when she jumps off the board, so I will have to have Andy there to help video that. :)

We really enjoy our days together, but we love heading over to RDES to pick up Luke in the afternoons too. We do miss him!
