Homeschooling

We sent Cinderella to kindergarden in September of 2012. It didn't go very well. So, for quite a few reasons we decided to Homeschool. So far we are loving it. We really feel like Cinderella is doing great and we will continue to homeschool her and the other children for now :)

So, along this journey of a Blog, I will be posting things that we do for Homeschool also!


Like this project...

Shaving cream fun!

I starting Homeschooling with a lot of De-Schooling, just to get Cinderella out of the mode of getting up, going to school, and sitting in a classroom for hours. She was having a hard time emotionally with public school, and some of these activities really helped the transition.


Besides silly faces, they also practiced writing their names, letters and shapes!

They used their fingers and hands and also Q-tips!


Have a great Day!

Peanut's 1st Birthday

Our little Peanut turned one in April 2012 :) To celebrate we had a Rainbow Party.

We made a Balloon arch. It was supposed to be a rainbow, but hubby didn't quite understand the directions I gave :)


We had rainbow cake with rainbow #1's made with the Cricut!


I used 6 box cakes (thanks Dunkin Hines) and food coloring gel (Wilton brand), I put white vanilla icing in between each layer and the same icing on top!


Yum!



Present time!

We had giant Rainbow lollipops for everyone!



The kids ran around the yard, played in sand, and made crazy balloons!

Everyone had fun!

Here's the birthday banner I made. Also with the Cricut.

There you have it, Rainbow first birthday!

Have a great day!

This is where we are headed!

Hello Friends!
 
I wanted to put a small post with a "more" recent family photo. I say more recent because it's from Christmas. I don't have one of all 6 of us more recent. Yes all 6!! Since my last post on this blog there were only 4 of us. So, we have a lot of catching up to do. There were a lot of events and fun things going on!
 
Here we all are:
From left to right, The Boy(4th child), Me, Cinderella (1st child), Strawberry Shortcake (2nd child), Peanut (3rd child), and my wonderful Hubby!
(The older two picked their internet names themselves! hehe)
 
Have a great day!

Hello! From the other blog.

This was a post I posted back in 2012, on my other blog :) this will help with the updating process!
 

Good Morning Friends!

I have been inspired to create this blog. One, because I stay home with my 3 children and one in the oven until August 2012, and need something to do with myself to feel productive. And two I wanted to organize my thoughts and my life. I thought if I could create a journal of my thoughts, ideas, inspirations and projects maybe I could become a little more organized. So, instead of writing everything down on a piece of paper and loosing it somewhere, amongst all the chaos it will stay neatly on the web, and maybe someone will enjoy reading about the crazy life our house lives! :)

Today, we will be finding out the gender of our Baking Bun!! We are keeping fingers, toes, and anything else crossed for a little Boy. We have three wonderful girls, and would love a boy, but of course, healthy is first and foremost! I will be back later with an update!!

Re-Discovered!

Ever forget about something and then rediscover it years later! :) happen to me!!

I even created a new blog!

And then just happen to log in to blogger on a different device and BAM, here it is! So, because this blog is where I have so many things saved I will be transferring posts from my "new" blog to this one, over the next couple days!!

A lot has happened, babies, homeschooling, diet, houses, parties, and tons more! Stay tuned for lots of fun! :)

Have a great day!
