We don’t live on a great road for riding bike. Traffic isn’t flying at highway speed, but it’s not slow enough to suit me when it comes to kids and bikes either. So… we end up taking bikes to the park to ride. A year or more ago, my dear husband was insistent that we […]
Wiped out.
Ellie fell asleep on Liberty. Liberty wouldn’t eat supper until Ellie woke up, not wanting to move and miss the moment. Love it. (Love those rolls on baby, too.)
TOS Review: Golden Prairie Press
As a part of the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew, I’ve spent that last several weeks working through the Golden Prairie Press history curriculum with the digital version of Heroes & Heroines of the Past: American History Curriculum by Amy Puetz. I downloaded the PDF’s and sent to my Kindle. It made reading aloud simple for us. […]
My week in review.
Last Tuesday night, Ruby tripped and fell in the yard. She screamed about her arm, and cried off and on through the night. The morning found us in the doctor’s office, getting her right arm x-rayed. It showed nothing. The pediatrician thought it was nursemaid’s elbow, and attempted to put it back in the socket […]
TOS Review: Logic of English
For the past six weeks, I’ve been using Logic of English Foundations B in Cursive with Sterling as a part of a review for the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew. Sterling is six, nearly seven, has just completed first grade, and has used Foundations A (also in Cursive) some last year. (I reviewed that here.) Logic […]
Clothing Swap
Thing Five and Thing Six, when told to put their pajamas on last night, decided to switch things up a bit. Him in hers and her in his, they were calling each other their own names and laughing hysterically. Blaine’s conclusion: Pierce looks pretty good in pink. The ballerinas though… not so much.
TOS Review: Maestro Classics
The Old Schoolhouse has been reviewing four CD’s from Maestro Classics lately, and I received two to review, Casey at the Bat and Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel. Part of the Stories in Music CD series, Maestro Classics produced these CD’s with well known stories or poems set to symphony orchestra music. The beginning of the CD […]
Out.
You know it’s been a long day of play when sitting down to go potty results in a nap. But when that nap has you falling off the potty and you stay asleep and the nap continues on the floor… maybe, just maybe, there’s been too much summer fun going on. Pierce came in while […]
Elliot Adelaide: 9 weeks
Being married to a photographer has it’s perks. He took this photo this afternoon.
A dirty proposition.
I walked into my living room yesterday and saw. Really saw. Through the fog of pregnancy, reduced sleep with a newborn, and all that comes with it, I’d rather grown accustomed to a new normal. Laundry, feeding my family, grocery shopping… I’d kept up with all of that. But my house was maintaining at a […]
