So.......seems like it's been over a week since I've been on here! Wait a minute....it has!
So how about some updates?
School - going very well! I would say this last month or so has been the best weeks of homeschooling we have enjoyed thus far. I'm really enjoying these studies with the kids and working together as a group (rather than individual time). We still do one on one time for certain subjects, but much of our work is all of us at the table together and we're having fun! Our human body study is coming along. We have added on the pancreas, bladder, reproductive organs, stomach, small intestines and large intestines. Today was the intestines topic and yes, there was much talk about poop. The kids kept giggling through the whole lesson :) In Astronomy, we are learning all about Earth (have done Mercury and Venus). We've also been really enjoying our Biblical Greek study together as a family after supper. So far the kids have learned the first 7 Greek letters and I have to say, our 5 year old has caught on the fastest of all of us!
Baby girl updates - growing as fast as ever! Starting to cruise along the furniture. Has tempted a few times to let go and just stand on her own. No walking just yet. Hard to believe in only a couple months she will have her first birthday!
Hubby is anxiously awaiting his surgery on the 9th. Neither of us ever look forward to these (although I know he enjoys breathing better!) How wonderful it would be if this were to be his last! We stopped counting after his 11th surgery.... Hubby has also been very busy with work. Since being self-employed for almost a year and a half now, it has been awesome to see God bringing in work for him.
That's all for now. Off to bed :)
Glad to hear the schooling is going so well. I can just hear the giggles amongst them as you study the human body.
ReplyDeleteWe pray all goes well with the surgery coming up.
Good to see you back! Way to go for our baby girl! It won't be long before she takes off.
ReplyDeleteThat's great with the kid's schooling! It's so nice when you can enjoy and learn at the same time.
We, too, are anxiously awaiting hubby's surgery. As a mother, I'd much rather it be me to have to go through this instead of my child. But then again, God's in control. So we just keep praying!
