Can I play with you?

No play time is complete without a good crash.

I'm mad! I'm mad! I'm so... wait, are you taking my picture? I was only kidding.

These boys keep pushing her around

but it looks like she doesn't mind.



Grace at her best -rashy face, dirt ring under the chin, and all. I could wash her up before I take her picture, but then you'd miss the good stuff.



The proper way to ride a tricycle.

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with my blog,

but I've been a little tied up.


We are finishing up our second week of school. We are still adjusting the schedule and getting used to our new curriculum, but things are starting to fall into place now. I love Switch on Schoolhouse, even though it has given me such headaches trying to figure out how to use it. Still, I would recommend it to anyone (that is computer literate.)

Jacob- "Mama, look! I wrote Joshua's name on the note and look where I put it. I put it on his walker so we know who he is!"

It's coming

Whether we like it or not.

It makes no difference how many times we were able to sit in the sun,
or how hot it did or did not get.

The air is getting chilly, the heavy blankets have come out, the kids are not as eager to stay outside all day. Fall is on it's way and I have a feeling it's coming early this year.



Yeah, I know, my pictures have nothing to do with fall. Maybe I should have photoshopped some frost on the mushrooms.
What? You don't get excited over fungus? Come, on... I only shared the cool ones. And I even left out the ones that were oozing red jelly. You'd rather see pictures of the kids? Oh, all right. Here ya go...

What a week

Oooh, let me tell ya...

It's been quite a first week of school. And it's not over yet. A few of our subjects are new this year. We are giving Switched on Schoolhouse a try. But our computer is on the older side and I am less than an expert so I have had some trouble getting set up and started. In a few days, this old thing got a little more memory, an Internet Explorer update, a service pack 3 update, and as much of a clean up and tune up as I could perform. I wont go into detail any more than that because it's 10:30 already and (yawn!) I'm tired and sick and tired of being parked in front of this computer.

So I'll just leave you with a couple pics because my sister keeps asking me "When are you going to update the blog?"
These are for you, Kath.

She's smiling because it's not her purse. The cuter the smile, the less of a scolding she'll get from Courtney.
