I’ve started working with Anna on letter sounds and we’ve been doing the letter “B” for the last few days.  Today, while she was eating lunch I was trying to describe a few things that start with “B” and would let her guess what I was describing.  We did BALL (“it’s round like a circle and you can throw or bounce it”) which she got right away and then I moved on to BOY.  I said “You’re a girl and Daddy is a…..” expecting her to say BOY….well I guess he’s taught her well because she shouted out “MAN!”  LOL…I had to mention on of her little boy friends to get my point across.

I’ve uploaded a bunch of pics to my photo gallery lately.  Be sure to check them out!

Anna’s loving her new scooter.  She picked it up pretty quickly and can scoot around quite fast now.  She rides it all over the house mostly, but I did take her to the park the day after her birthday so she could try it out outside.

I found a really cool park about a half hour away from us that we went to check out on Dan’s day off only to find that it was mostly closed due to damage from the hurricane.  We did find a playground that seemed to be in working order so Anna did get to play a little bit.

And then we decided to go to another park (actually the same park that we went scootering at) and go for a bike ride.  Well, Dan and Anna rode bikes and I walked.  Anna did great.  She’s had her bike for several months now but really hasn’t done much riding outside other than around the neighborhood a bit.  It has just been too hot here.  But now it’s FINALLY starting to cool off.  She loves riding her bike around.  Afterwards we let her play in the water spouts since it was still warm enough for that.

So we’ve been out and about doing stuff which has been nice.  I’m leaving tomorrow to head back to Chattanooga, without Anna this time.  I have an interview on Wednesday for a job I really hope I get.  I’ll be there until Friday most likely and then will head home.  Wish me luck!  :)
