Date night

For our stay at home date night tonight, we wanted to do something different besides watching a movie or playing a two person board/card game. So we branched out and did origami star wars characters yoda and darth vader (see tutorials here and here).


We also decided to write a board book. Dash has been reading the Les Petits Fairytales series, where they rewrite a fairytale using only one word per page. So we tried the same concept, only this time we decided to rewrite "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" with only one word per page. Below are storyboards of what the book would look like, and these are the words we chose:
Hide and Seek, Wardrobe, Narnia
Mr. Tumnus, Friend, White Witch, Promise, Beavers, Sneaky
Betrayal, Escape, Flowers, Aslan, Exchange
Sacrifice, Alive, Rescue
Celebration

Dear Dash: Fourteen Months


Dear Dash,
We've been to lots of parks this month!
You aren't a fan of the playground, but you love walking around,
and looking at ducks and dogs. 
You are still obsessed with phones. Especially looking at pictures.
We celebrated the lunar new year at a Korean restaurant.
In Korea, you add an extra year to your life when the new year hits,
so you would technically be 2 years old.
We also visited several museums this month-
you loved touching the fossils at the dinosaur museum.

And you loved the displays at the Bean Museum of Natural History

Dad sprained his ankle so you have been helping him with exercises.









You got a cold and ear infection this last week.
So you spent a lot of time sleeping. 
You decided not to eat when you were sick.
It was no fun.



We sure love you!
Rhetorically,
Rebekah
