PJ Day!

The theme at school this week was Teddy Bears.  The kiddos explored different colors of bears, textures, and painted lots of pictures of bears... sleeping, eating, and playing.  They sang cool songs like the Teddy Bears Picnic.  At today's culmination of Teddy Bear week, everyone got to wear their PJ's to school and bring their favorite bear.  They watched a movie about bears (what else) and had Teddy Grahams for snack. Ev was fired up to wear jammies (footie jammies nonetheless) to school, but we did have to spend a moment talking him out of taking his football instead of a bear!  Then he got it, and immediately grabbed Syd - the flat teddy our friends the Bishops sent from Sydney, Australia when Evan was born.  He's a great buddy!  Of course Evan still needed shoes so he could play outside, so we added yellow galoshes to complete the look.  And don't you know, wearing a front-pack is the newest fashion!
