Busy, Busy, Busy!

We are so busy with the start of school. Chloe and I have kicked homeschooling into full gear and she is going strong. Math is her strongest subject and she loves it! Language Arts is harder for her with her speech issues but things are finally starting to click. Aidan is so funny when it is school time. He joins Chloe at the table and colors while she is doing homework. It is so cute. Chloe recently started Girl Scouts again. She really enjoys Brownies. As soon as her vest comes in I will take some pictures of her in uniform. She is doing awesome in dance and looks forward to it every week.

Aidan is doing well but as stubborn as ever. He has learned how to open doors recently which makes bedtime a battle since he refuses to stay in his room. He is learning how to play using his imagination. Cars are his current favorite, although he still adores dinosaurs and animals. He plays with his hot wheels racetrack constantly. Thanks Matt--that thing is so loud you can hear it going all over the house. :-)

Brenna is a laughing, squealing, wiggling, ball of energy. It is 10:30 at night and she is laying next to me happily playing and screaming at me. Yes--screaming. She has recently discovered her vocal cords and screams at the top of her lungs when she is happy (which is usually when I am on the phone). She rolled from her back to her tummy on Friday and is enjoying playing on her tummy. Her personality is starting to come through. She is a little shy and slow to warm up but once she decides she likes you, she is an absolute doll.

I am surviving and taking it a day at a time. Stamping and creating cards, scrapbook pages and more has become my therapy. When all the kids are finally asleep (or early in the morning), stamping is Mommy's quiet time. School is going well. It is nice to only be teaching a few hours a week right now. It gives the kids and I more time to spend at home. I will try to take some more pictures this weekend. Have a great week!!
