Poor neglected blog. Funny how I don't blog, yet I check all my friends' blogs daily. I hope to be consistent one of these days.
I never got to announce that we're having a boy! We're thrilled, he still doesn't have a name, but that will come soon. I'm counting down. Especially since I look like I could give birth today, nevermind I have 3 more months to go.
All of the children are very well. This is our last week of school!!!!! Well, not for the twins. With our schedule this school year, they didn't get much done in the way of school. So they started Kindergarten shall we say, in June, and they will not get a month long break like older brother. He's been counting down to his break for more than a month now. I need the time to plan finish planning his third grade year. The twins will continue with Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. They are progressing much better than I thought. And Nerds and Marshmallows are great motivators for them. Yes, I have no shame. Once upon 3 children ago, I would scoffed at bribery. But at this point in my life, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get these twins to read, so candy it is! And it makes the lessons much more fun. I wish I would have done it will be oldest instead of dragging him through the book at 3. Oh well.
Well I have more to say and lots of pictures to show, but my time is up. I'll try to contribute to my little blog a couple of times a week.
