First Toad of Spring and Homeschool Math

Finally, we found the first toad of spring!  Hiding under our pile of unused bluestone rocks, likely with an abundance of black widows (yikes)!

She's so cute with toads....every year I wonder if she'll get tired of them, and she never does! LOL!

And here is our homeschool math lesson for earlier in the week:  measuring length using different objects.  We found Kee to be 6 markers long from head to tail.

And two Isabel quotes that I just LOVED this week and had to share:

"I love holding Daddy, he's my forever guy."  3.28.2012
and
"I'm a God fan, you know that?"  3.27.2012

That girl is just precious!

Messy.

Isabel is nearly 6, Ian is 2 weeks shy of one year old in these pics.

Little lambs, a couple of weeks old....(Isabel's favorite!)

Chick!

Wait, is that a REAL pig?

 

Fish fun!

Our goldfish's tank was overdue for a cleaning, so we put him in a bowl and Isabel and Ian kept an eye (and a finger) on him while I washed the tank.

"No, you may not scoop him out with the ladle."

They thought this was great fun. 
The goldfish was happy to return to his tank.
