My Daybook - Finally! I'm a Terrible Blogger!

 

January 5, 2011

I have been a terrible, horrible blogger. I admit it wholeheartedly.  But I promise I have been a good parent because of it.   Time just seems to fly by with homeschooling and, well, just life and before I know it another day has passed too quickly.  I'm really hoping to be much better this year. 

I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday and wishing you a wonderful 2011!!

Outside my window...sunny and cold this week. This will probably be the case for the next two months.

I am thinking....how quiet it is around our house after the busy Holidays and company visiting from NC for a week.  We had such a great time.

I am thankful for....every day. 

From the learning rooms....Back to school yesterday.  I can't believe all that we have accomplished this school year.  Sophie is reading SO great now.  We started cursive writing yesterday and she is very excited about fancy writing. :) 

From the kitchen...cooking the fairly routine stuff this week.

I am wearing.... Pink pj pants and a sweatshirt. 

I am creating...absolutely nothing. 

I am going...to start my exercise program this week ...for sure! 

I am reading...The Seven Spiritual Laws for Parents by Deepak Chopra

I am hoping...for great things in 2011!


I am hearing....my husband in the kitchen making his lunch.

Around the house....It's a quiet week here.  Getting back to our regular routine. 

One of my favorite things....having nothing major going on in our lives....just simply life!


A few plans for the rest of the week....Gymnastics tomorrow and then night skiing afterward.  Dave chaperones the a ski club and we meet him there for fun.  I will officially get ALL of the Christmas decorations put away this weekend.

Here are loads of pictures to catch you up on what we've been doing for the last 2 months...Wow!  Where does the time go?
