Where'd the week go?

Has it really been almost a week since I've blogged. Goodness!! Life with 4 little ones sure does change things :)
First, I hope Grandma N had a good birthday! Hope to come see you soon. We are planning our trip to Canada which I'm excited about. The kids are excited and keep asking is it time yet???? It's been over a year since we've been there, so we are all looking forward to our trip!

In schooling news, things are going well. The kids have been having a good attitude lately and focusing on their work. Here, we don't have required testing for homeschool but I really wanted to find a way to test the kids on my own here at home. I found these great diagnostic tests and our daughter completed her end of year test. It gave me a really good idea of the areas we need to work on and how well she is doing. http://www.edudps.com/dpa.html

On the home front, we are all doing well. No one is sick right now....yay! After all those colds we had, I sure hope we have a nice break and stay healthy for awhile. Baby is getting bigger and bigger everyday. Everyone loves her plump cheeks and double chin :) She is staying awake alot more now too throughout the day. Sometimes that poses a little more of a problem with schooling since she would rather be toted around in my arms all day. We've also put our bird feeder back up so you may see some bird pictures again :) So far our cardinals and titmouse have been spotted (along with the unwelcomed squirrels!)
That's about it for now.....a quick update!
