Preparing for Baby
I have less than 10 weeks until my due date now. It is Christmas time. Or at least for me, it feels more exciting than Christmas. This is the part where the pregnancy begins to be more uncomfortable. I can’t reach my feet to tighten my new sandals. I can hardly get up from a…

Fractured arm, but not a fractured spirit
This last week we had an exciting event happen in our family. We were at our weekly outing with one of our favorite families, The Hanifords. It was a beautiful sunny February 16th and we had decided to meet at a new playground so the kids could get some exercise and fresh air. One of…

Reasons to slow down
For some reason the weeks are flying by faster than normal and so is my memory of them. And somehow I let last week go by without writing about anything. I know I was crazy busy going to well-child appointments and vet appointments and cello lessons and soccer and school somehow fit in between all…

Caterpillars and butterflies
Lasts year when we ordered the materials for science, we also ordered a couple of science kits. Included in the elementary kit was this fun butterfly garden kit with a free redemption code for caterpillars that will turn into butterflies. I haven’t been strictly going by the book with science, especially for the younger kids.…
