FHE Week 5 & 6

Week 5
{Eating Healthy}

We had a good time with this family night! Emmie loved pulling out all the healthy foods out of the pillow case. Then she loved feeding them all to Elmo - gotta make sure he eats well too!



Surprise surprise - she didn't stop me when I started singing the apples and banana song and she actually participated by pretending to eat apples and bananas! Afterwards, she did insist on singing the Wheels on the Bus. I'll take it!


Week 6
{Valentines}

We had a fun time getting all of Emmie's (and my) valentines ready for the school Valentines party that was yesterday (pictures to come).
Emmie decorated her bag all by herself
She was a great helper and handed daddy dumdums that needed to be taped on the card.
The night actually turned into a lesson about sharing. Emmie wanted to unwrap and eat all the candy (she totally thought she hit pay dirt!). She was very sad when she found out that she was not only not allowed to eat more than one dumdum...but that she was giving the rest way. By the end of the evening she seemed okay with the idea.

I thought our finished product turned out cute! I'm sure this is one of the only years she'll let me get away with making them rather than buying some action figure card...got to take advantage of the moment!
