Weeks in Review - 13 & 14

So things here have been freakishly lovely.  Seriously.  My faithful readers know that I am not even one iota of the perfect homeschooling mom.  Of course, she's a myth, and I hate her.  She's so nervy with her perfect kids, and perfect life.  Good thing she's made up.  But I digress...

I have finally settled into this homeschooling life.  I had a few posts in the late summer/early fall dealing with my acceptance of the differentness that comes with homeschooling.  I have finally embraced it, and better yet, I have........

A SCHEDULE.

Okay, more like a routine.

I am going to post in more detail soon about the awesomeness of our new pseudo-scheduled life.  So check back early next week for that.  I know, baited breath, right?

Some books read these past two weeks:  Ed Emberley's Jumbo Color Drawing BookThe Wall (Reading Rainbow Books)Daniel Boone's Great EscapeGerms Make Me Sick! (Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science 2) (Reading Rainbow book)Kat's Mystery Gift (Trucktown Ready-to-Roll)Merry-Go-Round (World of Language)Saving the Liberty BellNim and the War Effort (Sunburst Book)

Some videos/DVDS:  Mouse on the Mayflower [VHS]Peanuts - This Is America, Charlie Brown

I know we cooked, too, but I forgot what we made!

Goofy found an Ed Emberley book at the library book sale.
He's been churning out some nice drawings!  This is a witch.

A work sample from Lamb's Book of Art.  I seriously LOVE this book.

Funny plotted the wake up times of over 30 of my friends on Facebook.
Social media isn't all bad!

Silly spins at the playground.  We had a few nice
days and went to play after our work was done.

Goofy on a slide.

Scrappy.  He's a happy kid.  I like that.

  1. I am not a myth!

    I'm happy to hear that your kids like Ed Emberly. His books look cute, but we haven't used any of them yet.

  2. You crack me up. I hate that perfect lady too! I am glad you are getting to that good point. We are there too and it is awesome. We are taking next week off. I hope it is not a bad idea.
