Pumpkins - Pumpkins - Pumpkins

Once again we painted pumpkins this year for Halloween. We will probably be painting until Miss. Austyn can carve her own pumpkin, and wishes to do so. Austyn enjoyed painting more this year than last, and I assume she'll love it more next year. 

We had to let our pumpkins dry overnight (which was hard for Austyn) and we had to then wait another day before taking them outside because it was raining all day.

We were finally able to put them outside tonight after giving them a clear-coat spray. 

(And Miss. Austyn showing off her flower that sits in Nana & Papaw's yard!)

Hot Dots Jr

I found these "Hot Dots Jr" at the Teachers Supply Store here in Springfield and I love them, and better yet, Austyn loves them. 

They have many different subjects but we decided to stay with colors, shapes, and numbers. 

The number cards are a little too hard right now, so we haven't tested them yet. 

Here are some videos of her playing with them..... occasionally we get a little click happy and stop trying.
