Beginning Our Journey

Aug. 3, 2009

School is off and week one is done! :)

Posted in Raising Kids
Ok, so week one is finished :) I made it! I did it! Whoo hoo! And the best news of all? Tristan is learning to read! I am working on 100ez lessons with him. He is on lesson 9 and was so pleased to read MAT, SET and AM today. I am proud of him!

Alyssa is working on Sonlight Core 2. As I posted on the side bar. Sonlight is now offering a great rewards program. If you use my reward code ( LI20190176 ) you get $5 off the first $50 you spend if you are a new customer. I also get points for that. Anyways. That was a little commercial there. She is enjoying it so far. A LOT more work but I feel like we are really getting down to business.

I eliminated some things that were not fitting for her and added some new things this year and am pleased.

My Mother has been AMAZING and has joined us for 3 days last week and said she is going to try to get over 3 times a week if she can. Just to hold Wyatt while we school so he is out of our hair. Love that kid but he is needy :)

Here are some newer pictures for everyone.


The Boys Playing

Alyssa Skating at Grandma and Grandpas

Wyatt my blue eyed boy (did I mention that Tristans turned greenish? I think it might have to do with his treatments)

And all three in the morning (thus the morning look on Alyssa's face)

oh and here is one for the homeschool blog, Alyssa reading with her bear

Wow.....it has been a long time since I've checked this blog out. You still have the cutest kids on the planet. (I may be just a tad partial) In the last picture, you say Alyssa is reading with her bear. I don't see a bear. Just wondering.
Love you,
Mom
