This past weekend and this week have been DREAMY.
And it’s only Tuesday!!
We are home. No extras!
Blake and I are very careful about what we say yes to – especially now that our little ones are home – because constant running around just seems like chaos to us both.
I also find it hard to do anything here at home well when we are running so much!
We knew that the appointments and extras we have had the last month or so would make things a smidge crazy for ahwhile – but they were all very good choices, so we chose them anyway!
But this week? We are home. No extras!
Which makes this week DREAMY.
I am reading a book!
Planning winter projects!
Planning FIAR units!
Baking and cooking up a storm!
Doing some daily stretching exercises that my trainer encouraged me to do!
Enjoying this beautiful fall weather while sipping hot drinks!
I even looked for new recipes yesterday afternoon – DREAMY!
I was looking for new soup recipes – but came across this.
They look SO amazing, don’t they?
Sugar and I don’t get along, but I bet I would take a bite of one of those if I could!
Do you all use Pinterest?
It is my favorite one stop place for recipes and school ideas.
Most of the crafts and extras we do in school are from Pinterest.
SO simple to pull something up and copy it!!
Like these inchworms. Cause it was “I” week awhile back.
Or all the printables I use for the littles.
Right off Pinterest!
We are making some cardinals too – off Pinterest!
We are not up to 2016 when it comes to all this technology – not even close.
I think our old computer would make some of you laugh!
It sounds like an airplane taking off sometimes – which can’t be a good thing!
I still want my kiddos to hold and read books.
To learn cursive.
To write letters and send them through the snail mail.
So we do those things!
The four youngest kiddos and I spend time in God’s word and prayer before lunch everyday.
It is my favorite!
All of us lined up on the couches sharing our hearts!
I am stretching the littles lately.
I am surprised at all they know and can do!
They are writing letters on paper without much direction!
And counting numbers well too!
I have some super fun plans for school made, and am looking forward to using them!
My main problem with being these kiddos teacher is there is just SO many fun things to teach and NOT enough time in a day!
Makes for some very fun and full days!
I have the best job!
Time to get back to this dreamy week!
Hope you all are having a great week too!
