Update

We have been having all sorts of fun around here. We have been in our house for just over a year now and decided we needed to shake things up a bit. We moved a couple of bookcases and then a couple of children. Andrew is the proud resident of his own room. At first the thought of a pink room turned him off, but the benefit of his own room outweighed the color. Can you blame him? It is working out really well. He keeps his room spotless. Catherine is having fun on the bottom bunk and seems to enjoy sharing a room. For Bryson the move was fairly uneventful. Now he just has to share his room with a girl.

I can't get the font to go back how I want it so here goes...

One other reason the room change has worked so well is because Bryson is now at home with me during the day. No one fall over on this one. I know I was just telling Matt and Tia in December how I was happy to send my boys off to school for the day. Well I'm not happy to anymore:) We are starting on our second week with home school and we love it. The first day the work went way to fast and I realized we would be able to cover a lot more than I first thought. Each day I get a better idea of what I want to do and how I want to te
ach him. Bryson loves being at home. He does not feel the presure to get things done like he did at school. He is still expected to do what is asked of him, but there isn't anyone else to worry about. We are having a lot of fun!


This was after school work was finished. Ski goggles, snow boarding helmet and all ready to go down the backyard hill on his bike! Who wouldn't want to be home schooled?

...so I have some blue paint too if you need it!

I am glad you guys had such a great first week of homeschooling. We're in our fifth year, and I am still learning by trial-and-error. It's just like parenting- the trials are there to keep you growing. Stay strong Naomi.

That is so fun that you have started homeschooling! I really hope we move out there so that the three of us can help each other out! Also, could your kids be any cuter? Thanks for the update!

I really feel bad when I have to go back 3 months on the blog to find where I last left off. I've decided I might be done blogging. But if you want to join fb, you can get updates there! :)
I didn't realize you'd already started with Bry this year. That's great that it's working out for you.
