Sheesh! It has been so long since last week that I think I've forgotten what all we did. I think I'll just tell my story in pictures.
Here's the aftermath of our reading time on Monday:
We worked on double digit addition, which "Rupert" picked up on quite easily.
Then there was free creative time, which he LOVES! This week he was working on his life-size ninja turtle masterpiece. He made his goal and finished it by Halloween!
"Rupert" does his copywork twice a week at his little table.
A couple more things he made during free creative time. He was SO excited about Halloween this year and was really into making decorations to put all around the house.
On Friday, we went to the pumpkin patch. I was worried that there would be nothing left since it was the DAY BEFORE HALLOWEEN, but it was wonderful! Plenty of pumpkins, and no crowd...perfect!!
We carved pumpkins on Friday night. This was the first year that "Rupert" didn't mind handling the pumpkin guts at all.
My ninja turtle got to go to the Halloween party/parade at our local library, then after dinner we went to the carnival at our church, and to Grandma and Grandpa's house. He brought home more candy than I ever imagined...enough to give us all a good solid start on the road to diabetes. :-)
I'm sure this didn't help matters. We found this in a Halloween cook book at the library. It WAS good. :-)
I also joined "Rupert" in his Kung Fu class and I LOVE it! I am so excited that I get another chance to train in martial arts. Doing it with my son is so cool. It has always been a dream of mine to train with my kids. Now if we could just lure Daddy into it, what fun we would have!

So much to comment on! The NT drawing is fabulous, the posing real NT even better. The food looks yummy, and it's so cool that you're doing Kung Fu with him.
Oh, and LOL about the diabetes comment. :)
