First Day ~ September

Early start to my day!

Much-needed.

Arriving at the hospital for an early morning ultrasound.

And waiting.

And waiting.

And waiting.

And waiting.

And waiting.

We have LOTS of waiting to do!

Breakfast ... finally!

A little Stampy Longhead Youtube video first thing in the morning.

This girl had to come to Nana's early, and she is ready to go home for a nap!

A delivery!

Mornin'! It's time for school!

And the cabinet is open and waiting.

So much more independence this year ... love it!

Took a lunch ride over to my mom's.

Love these Tuesdays with my mom, aunt, and daughter.

Back home for more school. The Chronicles of Narnia.

Oh, and some laundry. Always laundry.

Another new thing for us ... reading a play ... The Miracle Worker

Speaking of new, I started a new workout class at the high school
on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

And speaking of new, again.

A sports practice. That's nothing new.

A little Pokemon battle before bed.

Me and the boy opted for a snuggle.

And then I went to bed! Early! Bedtime tea and lavender oil in the diffuser.

Changed out my nightly banana for some thinly sliced
peaches and raspberries I had in the freezer.

  1. Fabulous news on the new baby! Prayers for a smooth pregnancy. :-) I have just caught up on the past month of your posts! Love hearing how the new way of eating is going! I do more of the "Clean Eating" diet (I hate to call it a diet since it's really a lifestyle) It probably has a few more carbs. I'm not familiar with the Ketogenic diet. Now you have me curious!

We all know that in this crazy world of homeschooling, we need all the (adult) support we can get. Please leave a comment if you so wish!

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

We found our groove with math this year. I found a curriculum that both of the kids respond well to and seem to enjoy (as much as one can enjoy math). We have spent the whole year learning the ins and outs of multiplication and were just a few lessons away from being ready to move onto the next year-long level on division. And then an opportunity to review the 12 Month Family Plan from  CTC Math became available. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic. I mean, why mess with the methods that have worked so well? When I was chosen to review the product I didn't go into it with the level of enthusiasm that it deserved. We have been using a dvd/workbook curriculum with great success. The 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math is a web based curriculum. As we have not had a lot of luck with those types of programs, I went into this review with a negative attitude. And then my socks were knocked off by how great it is. In fact it is so great that we are going to continue to ...

Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt (Schoolhouse Review)

For the past several weeks we have been reviewing Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Flashcards  from Veritas Press . As we were entering into our more easy-going summer schedule, and had just concluded a two-year Old Testament Bible course, I was happy to try out this product as it appeared to be something that Eli and Brynne could do together, alone, and would act as a review of the Old Testament presented in a different way. And I was right. Each Veritas Press Self-Paced History program includes 160 lessons teaching about 32 events in history. They are designed for children in grades 2-6, and it is recommended that the student be a minimum of 7 years of age at the time of the first lesson. What We Received We received a full one-year subscription, for one child, to the online Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt program and the accompanying Old Testament and Ancien...

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

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.
