What Elias Has Been Up To


Elias built a very fancy castle. 

He worked on using a number line to solve math problems. This is one of his favorite things to do. 



He worked hard preparing his body for food therapy. 

And he FINALLY got a turn to fly this Star Wars ship. 


He loves to wear his suit. 

We were very proud of Elias this week when he decided to try tomato soup in a bread bowl as his food therapy homework. Turns out he likes it a lot!

Elias is very good at sharing Legos. 

And he’s a very impressive Jedi. 

OT Outside


We took our OT homework outside one day because it was just too nice to be inside. 

First we watched the reaction between baking soda and vinegar. Then we mixed the colors of vinegar together. 



Then we played in the clay like dough that vinegar and baking soda creates. The boys all agreed this activity is a keeper. 

We also had a rice station as well. 








Outside


Augustine build an impressive snow fort in the front yard,

and then the big melt began. The boys loved playing in the rushing creek. Leaf dams are stronger than they seem.

Levi could swing all day long. There wasn’t much else for him to do because the puddles on the playground were deep. 






















Boy does it feel amazing to be outside again, and visiting parks!

Lewis’ First Confession


Logan and Lewis went on a Confession Pilgrimage together. They visited eight churches/confessionals.  

Lewis learned lots about the sacrament of confession. Logan teaches about the seal of confession with a really fun project pictured above. 





A little big kid in a suit is just the cutest. 

Lewis hopped up to be first in line for Fr. Hottovy. 






To celebrate we stopped for a cinnamon roll at Goldenrod,
And a super giant crucifix from Gloria Deo. Augustine picked out this same crucifix a few years ago for his First Confession, and Lewis followed suit.  

Fr. Hottovy blessed the crucifix. Congratulations Lewis! We are proud of you!

Basketball


One of Logan’s students won a basketball game and asked if our boys would like to have it. We said aide, and probably should have asked a few more questions...like, how big is it?



The student’s save the date card arrived right as we set up the game. 







They LOVE it. 

“I have to get my sports clothes on so I can play basketball.”
