Science...

I am constantly thinking, finding, researching, and brainstorming fun activities to do with my girls. My girls love to play in the water, water play might very well be one of their favorite things to do. So, I set up a little science experiment... I filled one bowl full of ice, filled one bowl with warm water, and one with cold water. I got out as many different utensils one could possibly think of (all different sizes and shapes) and laid them by the bowls. Then, I let my girls go to town! I did not model any type of instruction, I simply sat back and took pictures. It was incredible how they manipulated, explored, and problem solved with these different materials. Science at it's best! They had so much fun, they tasted the ice, poured, picked up, collaborated, and shared.

This was a super fun and free activity to do with your little ones. I started water play with my girls when they were almost a year old, never too young or old to play in the water!!! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

The Setup!!!

The Fun Begins!!!

I love this, they are both water-falling!!!

First, a drink from the spoon...

Then, she drank from the bowl...

And later, we played in Mommies Jewels!!!!

Have a fun filled week!!!

Nature!!!

Last weekend we headed down to Sulphur to visit Nanna, Ray, Auntie M, and Kenzie. We decided to go hiking and we had a wonderful time. It was the perfect temperature and the girls had an absolute blast. They started out a little cranky but once they were able to get out and explore themselves they were sold. Looks as if these girls are even more outdoorsy than me!!!

 There was lots of hand holding...

melts my heart!!!

What else have we been up to...

Well, we celebrated Valentine's Day!!!!

 I was SO excited about these...

 But my girls were more interested in these...

We have also been doing lots of cooking!!!

 And playing SO much dress up in mommies clothes, and shoes!!!

 Livi is obsessed with "Wheels on the Bus" she sings it, knows the hand motions, and now reads the book!!! Of course, I love it!!!

Livi usually unwillingly shares her book with sissy and waits patiently for her to lose interest in it. Oh the value in sharing, we are leaning a lot about it these days!

We have enjoyed playing outside this weekend. We entertained ourselves with sidewalk chalk, bubbles, and the slide!

Have a wonderful week!!!

Melt Snow Melt!!!

Over here at the Cox home we are SO ready for warm weather!!! The snow is slowly melting and the girls finally got to go outside. The girls loved soaking up the sun while playing in the snow.

Enjoy the pics and the beautiful weather!!!
