Time for Tea

Here are a few pictures of Reese's Birthday Party. The kids really stepped into the role. One time Reese said...."ma'am, can I please have more tea"

    Hey Amber!
    I started the 100 easy lessons with my 5 year old girl and its going pretty well. We are only on lesson 11 or so, but I can already see some fruit from it. So I would say go for it. It seems to be a great tool to use. But I understand the burden you feel.
    I also have a 6 almost 7 year old girl in 1st grade that is (don't as me how) reading! So once I got the book she was already beyond it.
    Other than the book the other main tool I use for reading are the Explode The Code books which I would highly recommend. I have them at 2 different levels for my 5 and 6 year old. They are very easy to use and have all the right stuff in them. I just started homeschooling in January so I am very much in a learning state.
    The classical education book I mentioned on my blog has all the info you need to start classical education but its hard to navigate because there is so much options they give you. Fortunately I had a friend who is experienced in homeschooling and basically gave me a list of what materials to get and how to get started for kindergarten, 1st grade and 2nd grade. If you want me to email you that let me know. My experience with her list has been really positive.
    Anyways I would love to talk more but this comment is starting to become a novel. But let's talk more! PS I also have a 3 year old boy and 18 month old girl. Congrats on your 4th! That is so great!

Okay Dallas when you hit the ball you need to run to 1st base, 2nd base, and then home.....no mom! I don't want to go home!Reese was outside singing today while she was on the swing. And she says to me. "Mom, the sun is coming out because I am singing....I am wakin it up!" Keep singing girl, keep singing!Dallas: Look mom his doesn't have twin wheels! (translation:training wheels)Dallas: When I am a daddy....I want one of those baby Norahs.So sweet!Reese: Mom I like these things...What things? Reese: These Rat-tat-too-ies Do you mean Tattoos?Reese: Yah! TattoosDallas was holding Norah and this is what he said....Norah pooped. She pooped 3 times....Oooo....she pooped 10 times mom!!Reese was going to the bathroom and when she was done she looked (as all kids do) and said "oooo, look mom. I ate carrots!"Reese has been wanting her ears pierced. She spent that night at Ambers house and asked her if she could do it. Amber told her that it would hurt and after she did one ear she would have to do the second ear. She said "how bout you do the second ear first"We been telling the kids that Norah can't have anything to eat because she is to little. Dallas walks in the hospital and get up to look at Norah and says: "I want to see if she has a mouth"In the morning when the kids wake up they come and crawl in bed with us. I was laying on my side talking with Reese. She looked at me and said "Mom...your boobs are hugging" I just laughed. She then said "they love each other" The thoughts of a 5 ....and just in case you were wondering. I was wearing a tank top ;)Mom....when I am a mom I will have two kids and then we will have lots of kids at our house!!(And what do we have now...I am thinking)Dallas looked at my blog and the picture of the "barefoot and pregnant""mommy that's you!"Boy do I love that kid ;)My room is usually a mess. Of course I have all the "good" excuses as to why :) Well my surprise when I got home from work was a nice clean room with a made bed.When Reese came and got me this morning she said "Mom your room is Amazing!"

the things they say...

Reese: Hey mom look! She walks just fine and doesn't even need a cane! (we were at costco and she said this about an elderly lady...nice!)
