I will admit that I have not been feeling myself the last few days - with the responsibilities at home, the many projects I have taken on, and the general fatigue that comes with being the vessel to create a new child. I have not been as diligent as I intended in keeping up with my blog posts. Tonight I am still pretty preoccupied with my other projects, but I will go ahead and share with you some pictures from the last few days bird-themed activities.



Working on bird journals



We made "binoculars" so we could bird watch better.



They seem to enjoy them!



We also did a bird themed sensory bin - that was a big hit.



Deker was tasked with "egg cracking", and he did well recognizing his numbers. The hole punch was a little stiff and he mixed up his six and nine, but he wanted to do that activity again and again. He then proudly glued them into his bird journal as proof of his hard work.



A last-minute attempt at a bird lunch.



New bird journal pages - Deker did the ones on top, Miles on the bottom.



And this morning we went to Lowe's for a free bird feeder build. (Seriously, they have great builds every month for free - go to lowesbuildandgrow.com and register your kids for the next one!)
They each wanted their names on them - Deker has his on the bottom, but Miles insisted on having his name right on the front.

And that concluded my week as far as bird work. I still have more that I didn't get around to for some reason or another, so we'll probably continue for a while longer. I'll be sure to keep up with the journals, as that seems to be a favorite. I think the next Lowe's build is a planter of some kind - maybe I'll start planning some kind of botany week for next month ...
