Connor's Self Portrait Okay, so maybe he didn't make a self portrait with finger paints but he did have a GREAT first day of school. Each day when he gets picked up I get a sheet that tells me what he did for the day. The sheet is broken down into several areas Language Arts, Cognitive Development, Creative Art, Music/Movement, Motor Skills, Self-Help/Life Skills, and Sensory Stimulation.
Yesterday Connor got to explore the texture of shaving cream (creative arts)...Cliff thought that was no big deal since he gets to explore the texture of shaving cream every morning. I on the other hand thought it was really neat (not too sure how they keep the babies from eating it). Connor also had the chance to feel the texture of tape (sensory stimulation). I wish I could have seen the look on Connor's face during this time. I am guessing that he had his signature serious look on his face.
Last night Connor was talkative and a happy baby. He was also very tired as he only had two naps yesterday that totaled 50 minutes. I am glad that his first day went well...we ALL survived.

That certainly does sound like a full day! Very well organized, good communication. A postive start for many years to follow.
I would love to see the tape thing too! As you said, they don't know the "fun things" our families like to explore with our babies. All in good "sensory" fun!
Love Aunt Rita
PS I hope Aunt Miranda feels better today knowing what fun Connor had.
Well, I am glad he has fun at school but as a Grandma that would love to babysit for the grandchildren I am sure his Grandma will miss him. He is getting big so fast!
Love cousin Darleena
