Briefly...

It's been one of those crazy kinds of weeks. I haven't really had a lot of places to go, but I've had a lot of projects to work on at home. They include a lot of internet research - which is challenging because I can't do it when the little kids are awake without a lot of interruptions, but when they are asleep I like to do school activities with Logan. Once they go to bed I usually expect that Josh will be on the computer. Still, I manage to find time to check my Google Reader and see what's going on with the world. :-) This week I have been getting ready for our trip to Odyssey of the Mind State, Brynne's Birthday, and Activity Days. So much to think about.

It's exhausting all of us.

Natalie is a very accomplished walker now. She just picked up on Monday and decided that she was going to stop crawling. She's very proud of herself and we love watching her fat little legs meander around the floor.


Hannah's been working hard on a story that she's writing for school. She's been reading like a banshee and doing math. Her music is coming along fabulously.

Logan has been working math and reading for the most part. We've also been reading some science books, doing some drawing, cooking, and playing lots of educational games.

Brynne handed me her test papers from her reading class. All 100%! She's doing great at school and loving her friends.

That's about all the news around here. For the most part, we're just counting down the days until Josh finishes his CFP classes/tests and then our regularly scheduled programming can resume!
