Exercise and Crafts

Today was a better day for all of us. The smoke is still really bad but we didn't have any appointments and were able to stay inside.

Junior spent quite awhile doing his exercises this morning. With his asthma issues earlier in the month and now all this smoke he can't get out on his bike. We have to do lots more stretching and weight bearing exercises when he isn't riding his bike. He did great and didn't even complain(at least not loudly).

The kids worked on crafts much of the afternoon. They made little hangers for their bedroom doors, window stickers, and picture holders.

Here they are showing off their door hangers.
They both spent most of the time working on their picture holders. The Giraffe, butterfly and flower that you see Junior working on each have a slit in the top to hold a picture. This boy loves to paint, look at that excited face.
This evening we have been reading. Abigail and Junior are both signed up for the summer reading program at the library. They are so funny, and think it is great to get out the clock and time how long they read(or are read to), then they get to put a sticker on their chart for each fifteen minutes. If this smoke ever passes we will go to the library so they can get their prize for each three hours that they read.
