This past weekend, we had the pleasure of hosting "Chewy Louie" Sean's kindergarten class pet. He is a stuffed dog taken from one of the books they've read this year. Every weekend, a child in the class gets to take home Louie and make him a part of their family. He goes everywhere and does everything that we do. And then, at the end of the weekend, we record in Louie's journal everything he did and document it with pictures. Here are some of the things that Louie did with Sean this weekend: made crafts, slept in Sean's bed, made a pizza from scratch (and it was yummy), went to the mall and rode the carousel, attended church and met all of Sean's friends, played Wii....you get the idea.
It was lots of fun to have Louie with us and Sean took excellent care of him. Avery loved him too and could often be found trying to sneak him away so she could have him all to herself. She would grab him and run saying "My Chewy Louie". :) Here are the pictures we put in the journal:
