Cuteness X2

I loved these outfits so much that so much that I decided to buy Jordanna one in the next size up since Alexa's dress still fits. And I got the matching hair bows as well. Too cute!

So Glad It's Friday

I'm so tired (and will be going to bed as soon as I write this) and so glad it's Friday. These three little people keep me busy. Especially the one in the middle. She is into everything these days.
Every three year old girl should start the day off with coffee and a magazine, right?
After a week of hard work in school, we enjoyed a trip to the park and then lunch with Daddy today.
Caleb will begin speech therapy next week on Wednesdays and Fridays from 8:00 to 8:30 a.m. I'm dreading it; we don't do mornings around here. Well, Dave does, but someone pays him to get up early and go to work. The rest of us like our lazy mornings. I'm glad, though, that Caleb will be getting the help that he needs and that my tax dollars will be paying for it.
And this cutie enjoyed snacking on Cheerios, saying "Yum, yum," and watching her brother and sister play. She is too cute and is growing up too fast.

Teaching Time October 11th-15th

We plugged away at school again this week. Caleb is continuing to progress in his reading skills. One thing he loves to do is play this Leap Frog roller coaster game, which helps him work on 3 and 4 letter words. And Alexa picks up the names of some of the letters from playing with him as well.
Caleb worked on telling time in math this week. In science, we learned about the 5 senses. I ordered Alexa a new cutting skills workbook, which she loves. In Bible, we discussed sharing and giving cheerfully.

We finished off our week with a picnic at the park with our home school group.
