Noah's Ark Pictures


We built the ark to scale, but our animals and people are not to scale.


We built separate pens for different types of animals.



There's Noah with his (parrot) dove.

Boys a Growin'

Dorian can say just about everything now, and he's getting better at saying the things he could already say before. He can say water, milk, juice and wice cake (rice cake). He calls Tristan "Tistan boy". He calls the rabbit Bun-bun, and calls his droppings "rabbit poop". He can count down 3-2-1 at the beginning of a race and can say "mark, set, go!" He can count to 12 and especially likes to count stairs out in service.

We built Noah's ark out of Legos a few weeks ago. It took us 3 hours to build it to 1/3 lego bump scale. We filled it with animals and people that were not to scale, they should've all been tinier. We took pictures and the ark lasted about 2 weeks before Tristan couldn't live without the parts anymore.

Tristan is reading at mid-first grade level. He read The Nose Book to me yesterday and The Ear Book the day before, both by Al Perkins.
