Color Days

Roan has been more alert during the day which has been nice because that means he is sleeping longer at night. A few pics of him this morning before we all left to take Madeline to school. He was having a "green day" according to Madeline.


Each month Mrs. Becky has a color of the month and the students wear that color to school on a special day. Our first 2 colors have been red and black.

In September Madeline had "red day" when Clifford the Big Red Dog was coming to school....she was so excited for that day....they made Clifford ears, read Clifford books, found bones Clifford had hidden in her class and ate "dog food." Here is a picture after Madeline got home from school in her Clifford Ears...you can't see them very well but you get the idea...and she was all in red!




Today Mrs. Becky asked all the kids to wear black (the color of the month) and to bring a toy that was black for show and tell for "black day." So last night Madeline and I picked out her black clothes and I asked her what she wanted to take to school that was black. She walked over to her little toy bin and grabbed her black purse and told me she was taking her purse to show and tell. So this morning I thought I would check one more time to see if she wanted to take a TOY to school that was black and she again said "no, I want to take my black purse." So we headed off to school with her dressed in black carrying her over-sized black purse with her Tinkerbell phone inside!


I promise I DID NOT make her pose like this....she wanted me to take "one more" for her to look at!



When I picked her up from school she had received a cute little award for all her black attire and on it read " and her black purse her Mimi gave her"....WHAT!!!! I beg to differ...I believe my daughter took that purse out of my closet not to long ago and decided it was going to be hers...I never remember Mimi giving it to her...but I thought that was cute. Apparently, Mimi gave her the (in her words) "special purse" and Oma gave her the "special phone." She can always make me laugh!

  1. Wow, looks like Madeline might be skipping straight from pre-school to junior high striking those poses! Too cute! Love the new Roan pics! Glad he is sleeping more (I pray we are so lucky!).
