First Day ~ July

By


Join Nicole at Journey to Josie in her fun First Day linky. I was on the road coming back from Oklahoma for a few hours of the day, so there aren't a ton of pictures. Some of the ones I did take I took while driving, which isn't incredibly smart. But, what do you do?? Here is a small recap of our day ... July 1st.

Driving ... alone .. listening to music .. not a movie on the DVD player. Ahh ...

Driving ... alone .. taking pictures .. while driving.

And again ...

And again .. Welcome back to Missouri! Nice dirty windshield.

A stop off at Walmart for a couple of "necessities". Somehow two ferns made it in my cart.

Sitting on my parents' front porch waiting for my mom to come home ... alone ... again.

Had to stop and see this cutie .. my niece, Ashtyn. She'll be a YEAR OLD this week!

Eli and I went to Cub Scouts. He's a Webelos now. Learning about Citizenship.

I finally remembered to buy tomato cages. Now if I would just get some tomatoes!

Ending the night with some Wii (as always).

And a doggie (as always).

This isn't something you always see at our house ... an incubator for the chick eggs we get today!

      Well, we are hatching them but we can't keep them in city limits. So, they will be going to a friend after about a week. And I have a pretty garden, but if we don't get some consistent heat and sun I am only going to have pretty green leaves.

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

By
Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.

A New Year, the Same Me

By
Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...

Science Sunday ~ Hmmm ... Let Me Think About It!

By
This week in our study of the Human Body , Brynne moved on to the Nervous System . Our first stop was a Pamela Hill Nettleton book called, Think, Think, Think: Learning About Your Brain . As part of our discussions about the brain , and the fact that it's the BOSS of the body, we discussed the importance of the spinal cord . We did a hands on spinal cord project by alternating gummy Life Savers and wagon wheel pasta on a pipe cleaner. We talked about why there was the "squishy" stuff in between the vertebra and how the back can bend and sway because of it. We completed "The Brynne" by adding the stomach, small intestine and large intestine, from our study last week of the Digestive System (although I just realized I have the large intestine coming out of the stomach, when the small intestine should be) and the brain and spinal cord. We are now done talking about the parts of the body and will conclude our study of the Human Body with a two-day unit ...
