N Is For Nest

We threw out our worksheet again and created a nest yesterday.

We glued on some paper strips to make the nest look more realistic.   There was talk about what birds use to create their nests and how some nests are big, some small, but they are all nests.  Now is a good time to spot the nests in the trees without their leaves, so we will start looking for some on the way to the bus stop!

He colored his eggs for the nest.

Beautiful!♥

Meanwhile, I was up at 4AM with our kitty Smudge, who decided it was time to bat the baseball around the house.  It sounded like an elephant wearing shoes.  Smudge likes to play what we call "Horse". (Laughing..) He gallops back and forth and because we do not have carpet, we hear every paw step.  He is so funny!  Even more funny, while I was gathering the balls at 4:00, (there are three of them that he likes to bat around) I noticed that the baseball has a Babe Ruth autograph!  Ethan got the movie 'The Sandlot' for Christmas. LOL

Here is Aiden and Smudge playing "jail".  Aiden is the policeman and Smudge is clearly in jail.  He was so good and stayed until he was released.  We love our Smudge.  Happy Tuesday!  We woke up to snow and a 2 hour late start for school. ♥♥♥

Song for today is Strange Little Girls by Tori Amos.♫
