Tot School- Outside

This week the weather has been very pretty.  We really did not do our normal school things.  Instead we enjoyed lots of outdoor time.  
We took our kayaks out to the lake what fun!!  Baby bug loves going for boat rides!  She looks so cute in her little pink life jacket.  

We planted the garden.  I have renamed baby bug - garden monster!!  She was a great help with the weeding but it was hard for her to understand that the things we planted did not need to be weeded.  
The water table was used several days, she just loves splashing in it while I am gardening.  One day she used her play cup and watered the plants from the water in the table.  
What fun!  I also started attending a new ladies bible study at church this give baby bug another opportunity to play with children her age.  The social time is so good for her!!  What was your tot up to this week? 
Now if I can just keep my little garden monster away from the irises!
