This week....

This week we had lots of excitement! The first big thing was that the kids started in their Co Op on Monday and all three of them had just the best time and cannot wait to go back. They are even making some new friends : ) I am so happy we found this great opportunity for them both socially and academically. I love homeschooling them but they do need time with someone else in charge and the girls need time away from each other! Ian and I also get some mommy and me time in his little preschool class!


The girls are still enjoying piano lessons though practice is sometimes less enjoyable! Ally is already learning a few simple songs and Audrey is getting very good at counting rhythms!

We had a baby check up this week and so far things are going perfect! My BP is great and I am praying I do not have all the problems I did when I was pregnant with Ian! I am still exercising 30 minutes a day but not as hard I was before I became pregnant. I bought a new DVD to workout to and the kids like to do it with me, which is fun! Here is a picture of our little caboose. I love how it has its little hand up and like it was waving to Paul and I. Next month we plan on taking the whole crew with us as we hope to find out the gender.


We had a few days of nice weather this week and opened up the windows and grilled and the kids enjoyed lots of bike riding and outside play time. I took them to the park one day for a picnic and some play time. They enjoyed finishing school early and having that fun time with mommy!  I so wish we could have called Paul to join in but he has to save his days for after the baby is born. We enjoyed the weekend with him though.

I did alot of the cooking this week!! I am finally able to cook raw meat again without getting sick! Paul was so good to help out through this phase, I am so very blessed! I tried a few new recipes, some where a hit others a miss but oh well, I did it!

The kids are enjoying AWANA's his year and Ian is so proud to be a big Cubby :) He is learning verses this year and is doing great. He also started his HIPPY lessons and enjoys the book but does not always like the work, typical boy!  He has also learned to recognize a few of his letters through all the games we play with them each week!  I am so proud of him.

We are looking forward to another great week!
