Jungle Week Day 1

This is the second week of themes, and today we started Jungle Week!  Last week was our first week trying themes again with cow/farms.  I've been wanting to set these up again, but after having Keira and dealing with Alli's hearing issues, it's just been too much.  Now Keira will be 14 months old in a couple days, and Alli is much better with her hearing aides, wearing them for long stretches at a time now, instead of ripping them out right away.  In fact today she went to school with them on for the first time, and ended up wearing them 11 hours straight!  It was also spring break last week so I figured that would be a perfect opportunity to get the ball rolling.  Well we had a lot of fun, and I can't wait to see how this week goes.  We got a slow start today, as the girls had school in the morning, but we still managed to jam pack what time we did have with fun activities.

This puzzle frustrated her so she didn't finish it.

She spent a lot of time with these nesting dolls.
