Got Juice?

Another giggle from Bug-a-Boo:

I was sitting on the couch the other day nursing Princess. Bugs came over to see what was going on. He asked if she was sleeping & I told him she was eating. He wanted to know what she was eating. I explained that mommy gives Princess special milk. He & Elvis have dubbed breasts with the name "Bom-Boms". I don't know why. It just is. Anyway, he wanted to know if she got milk from my "Bom-Boms". I told him yes. Then he asked, "Does she get juice from your bom-boms?" I chuckled and told him no, only milk. He then wanted to know if soda could be delivered to his sister. No, I told him again. He had me laughing as he asked these innocent questions. I think he was quite fascinated that his mommy is a walking milk dispenser! But also disappointed that no juice is provided for his baby sister. Lol!

Hot, Hot, HOT!

Oh my goodness it's hotter than Hades here! It has been this way all weekend. The kids, Dave & I are all roasting today. We were working on projects in the house this morning and before I knew it one by one the kids had copied my idea of wearing a wet washcloth to keep cool. Bugs came in the room & I burst out laughing. He wanted to be like everyone else but grabbed the first thing he saw. It was his sister's purple sock. He had that draped over his head and was wearing it so proudly. LOL! What a riot! We bestowed him with a wet washcloth and he wore that all day including wearing it on a trip to the storage unit. I wish I had taken a pic. He looked adorable in his over sized t-shirt, diaper (which you couldn't see b/c of the shirt), Elmo sandals & washcloth head covering.

We had planned to go to the lake this afternoon but the van started acting up. We made a trip to drop it off at the dealership instead. =( Not exactly the fun outing we had planned. The kids were a little disappointed but were happy to play in our little pool instead. They are easy to please. =) Now I'm lounging in my room - the only one with A/C - and being lazy. I need to look at my "To Do" list and get started on yet another project. It's tough b/c in one way I will be super glad when this week is over & our projects are done but on the other hand the end of the week brings Dave's departure. Mixed emotions for certain.

SUMMERTIME 2012

2012

It was a year full of learning not only educational-wise but life lessons too. We have come to treasure those we love more than ever. Family time is to be savored and memories to be created and viewed as priceless. And our Lord is to be praised, trusted & loved.

We are enjoying our summer. It is full to overflowing with VBS volunteering & attending, Taekwondo, park playdates, gardening, Staycation, camp, birthday parties, visits from loved ones, adventures & day trips, friends, outdoor fun, swimming, summer treats, church & lots of trips to the library. It is wonderful to have some time to renew & relax.

OUR 12th YEAR

It is hard to believe we are in our 12th year of homeschooling. Where does the time go? It seems as if I should feel like an expert by now. But that's not the case. I learn more every year & always look forward to the opportunity to grow.

This year we have made some big changes. At first I was a little cautious wondering how we would handle this. But God has been amazingly gracious. We have made many new & wonderful friends. Even with cutting back our schedule is full to overflowing with fantastic & fun opportunities & experiences.

I look forward to seeing what more God has in store for us this year and sharing it with you, our friends & family.

Summer, Here We Come!

We are winding down our school year. We've finished our co-op studies & had our last classes of the year. AWANA is almost over as well as TKD. The spring soccer season is in full swing. Soon summer will be here. Swimming, park days, field trips, VBS, popsicles, gardening, bike rides & fun with friends are things we are all looking forward to. We will be doing some fun studies over the summer as well. Some we have already begun!
As always our days are full to the brim. Many like to comment that Dave & I have our hands full. I agree. Our hands & lives are full of fun, laughter, learning & growing. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

A New School Year

School has begun! It isn't officially fall here yet but our fall activities have started. We are now back in AWANA, Wednesday night groups, Sunday school, soccer, homeschool & 2 family learning co-ops. This week we have added Taekwando to our schedule. Yes, we are busy! On top it all off I am co-leading our large, church homeschool support group. We kicked off the new school year with a picnic. It was an amazing time & lots of fun was had though the weather tried it's best to ruin it. God prevailed!

This year we have a 9th grader (How did we get to high school already?), a 6th grader, a 3rd grader and one in Kindergarten. And don't forget our little toddler!!!! As many like to comment yes, we have our hands full. Our hands are full of blessings, of life and of love. Some days bring more challenges & tough times but through it all we grow stronger & closer.

Announcement *

She is here! Safe & sound & BEAUTIFUL! We are all wrapped around her little fingers. Our little princess arrived on
April 6 at 8:06a.m. by C-section. She surprised us all by weighing only 7lbs. 9oz. We had expected her to be at least 9lbs. based on the ultrasounds. She is also 19.5 inches long. A little peanut!
As you can see from some of her hospital photos she is already learning to accessorize. Lol. The nursery nurses at the hospital stuck a pink bow in her hair. I love it!
I will not be publishing her real name on my blog due to safety reasons, (just like I have done for my older children), but if you'd like to know feel free to email me privately and I'd be happy to share.
