Purple & Gold Day

Nature Center

Our first visit of 2014! Snow-covered outside Warm & cozy nature inside Davis spied somebody's uneaten lunch (the white mouse to his left) or, the critter may have been saving it for dessert, after the 2:00 feeding always something new! and scarily familiar! (not many footprints along the trails) ever get the feeling you're being followed by a turkey? (the tank for big jumpers) Davis' favorite critter tank: a big toad soaking in his tub a slimy-looking skink a glass-climbing tree frog (tempted to make snow angels, but much too frigid) the magnetic fish were biting and flying high up on the wall getting bigger everyday! We were just talking about Road Runners the day before! strike the pose! High-five! The Janet Huckabee Arkansas River Valley Nature Center is awesome fun and makes stuff fun to learn! We are so fortunate to have this resource close-by! We'll ...

PJ Day

It's one if Davis' most favorite days of the school year! Angler Fish PJ's!

Where's Davis?

We're moving office furniture around... I wonder where he could be....

Hat Stuff

The Goblet of Misconstrued Monstrosities

Even on super-chilly days, there's no slowing-down. Fun routines, quick responses, maybe a few chores. All of it can become exhausting. On occasion, Davis can become parched. We go to great lengths to prevent drying-out. But sometimes a thirst can build quickly. Like the sand dunes in the Sahara desert. An immediate need for fluid.  The initial sense of dryness in the mouth is realized. Panic immediately escalates the condition a thousandfold. Thirst of an unimaginable scale has been achieved. Must get cold, clear, water.  What container could possibly hold enough refreshing liquid? A monstrous-sized goblet that requires both hands to lift? Oh, the anticipation of this wondrous cup!                              Ahh.      He must be ready for another refill.              Of monstrous proportions....

Test Prep

Every Friday is a big test day at school. We practice with lots of cards. Matching, flash quizzes, sequencing- Davis will be ready for tomorrow! part fun + pinch of suspense - same old stuff = good results!

Taking Flight

and staying warm  with his new Air Force shirt! It's not official issue,  but maybe it should be! -in big people sizes, too

Citizen Davis

OOOOhhhh... Such a good report! Above the line on his citizenship card!

Exchange Process

A certain visitor made an appearance last night. Davis opened the envelope as soon as he woke up, and wallah! A golden coin had been swapped-out for his tooth! Awesome! Thank you, T.F.!

It's Coming...Or Going...

The day is coming soon -really soon-  when one of Davis' front chiclets is going to fall-out.  The day hasn't arrived yet (sharpie marker special effect). We're preparing ourselves for what he may look like with only one front toofer.

Just Another Cool Google Fake

Or, is it really real? Part helicopter part cargo truck: Davis will be scanning the skies with wishful eyes.

Shopping with Davis

Shopping with Davis is usually fun, so why does he look a little sad? -not being able to find a reasonably-priced duck call, I'm sure A lay-away plan is always an option. Again, Davis finds another pricey item. But, sometimes you have to pay for style.
