This Child

This child makes us laugh on a daily basis. He drives me insane just as awesome. 

Yes he is wearing a suit jacket and pajama pants. I would laugh but I was so excited that he has on clothes. 

Because when he gets mad the first thing he does is strips his clothes off.

Feeling Beachie

I have not done a Feeling Beachie in a while. Now that farmers market is over I am really hoping to get started again. When Hilary asked me to co-host I instantly said yes. I love reading everyone's responses. The statements are: 1.Have you _ever fed a apple to a goat?____ 2.Growing up summer meant _lots of concerts in the park and lots of time watching my mom have fun?____ 3.The weather outside is beautiful, amazing, perfect._______ 4.My favorite teacher taught me__clean the cords on appliances, take pride in my property and enjoy what I cook.___

Sick Babies

This has been a hard week. Sunday morning my baby girl passed out twice at home. We rushed her to the hospital. 

They did blood work and we waited. The blood work came back that she did not look sick. The doctor said she must have just been dehydrated and released is. As we were walking out she passed out again. Only this time it took much longer for her color to come back. They did a chest X-Ray and decided she has pneumonia. 

So after a antibiotic shot we were sent home. 

We followed up with our pediatrician who said she did not hear pneumonia but it looked like she had strep throat. That test came back negative. The doctor said maybe she just did not hear the pneumonia. She still had a fever. So for now we watch her. 

She is feeling much better and is ready to be allowed off the couch. 

Please continue to pray as I have another baby who is coughing.

K5 Learning

I am so so SO excited to share a new program with you. I recently wrote about how I keep up with the little ones while I homeschool. One of the things I did not mention was one of my easiest ways to keep the kids going when I cannot be right there. We really enjoyed our test of K5 Learning. Some of our favorite things were that they got to earn arcade game and the colors. This was one of the first programs that was not full of cartoon figures but not too mature for the little ones. They loved that each thing built on the last. As a parent I enjoyed the fact that I could assign what I wanted to work on. They did not just pick what was easiest to play. My husband likes the fact that they had placement test so we knew where each child should start. I enjoyed that they had so many options for each grade and that they had extra worksheets when we need it.

They even have a free trial period. This is great for our family because I have learned not all programs work for the way my kids learn. This program worked well for all my kids.
Disclaimer: I did receive a free trial to sample this product.

Feeling Beachie

The statements are: I have not been great at keeping up with Feeling Beachie. I really enjoy the questions every week but this is my prime baking time for farmers market and I cannot get on the computer. Because we all know if we get on the computer for one minute it turns into twenty minutes before we look up and a hour before we get up. •__Shut__ your _mouth____ because_I said so._____ •I am in denial that it is already _September and winter is coming.______ •My purse is empty without _a spare diaper and business cards ______ •Camping to me, means _sleeping in a RV, family time and smores._____
