Bedtime story with papa

1st duck visit 2013

Board games

We picked up a few preschool board games during the holidays and Haley fell in love with them.  At the beginning, she cried and got all upset when she couldn't win or when she slid from the top to bottom in the Chutes and Ladder game.  After many days of playing and explaining the sportsmanship, she finally enjoys the game from start to finish.  A biggest challenge to finish the game is to keep Chester away from destroying it.

Story time

They lined up the dolls and Haley told a story.

Haley received her ribbon of excellence for preschool level 4 in her swimming lesson.  She is now capable of doing:
stationary roll, back to tummy
arm movements
stationary roll, tummy to back
independent back float, 3 seconds

roll to back/side for breath/rest
Chester enjoys snack while watching Haley.

Chester is Haley's 書僮, pulling her suitcase at swim school.

Six Flags on NY day

Thanks to our friend brought us free tickets to visit Six Flags on New Year Day.  Little Nicolas was making silly face in the back.

Asian Elephant Liz demonstrated how she moved the logs.

  Chester is so brave to touch Elephant Liz after the show.

Chester rode on the spinning cup with daddy.  It is also Haley's first time riding on a mini roller coaster with mommy.

We enjoyed all the animal shows, especially the dolphins and sea lion show.
