Our Homeschool Week {Week 11}

In my life this week…
I'm having a hard time grasping just how fast our week are going. I can't believe it is Friday already! This week I have been trying to stay caught up with as much as possible because my mom, my sister and 6 of my nieces and nephews arrive today for a week!!! We have not seen each other since Thanksgiving...too long in my book! It will be a busy, crazy, wonderful week.
In our homeschool this week…
We finished our first math books this week! It feels like such an accomplishment! We won't start new books until the fall but we will play lots of fun math games & we will do lots of counting and sorting and a few math unit studies {money} over the summer.
Emma is doing great with reading. She can read through our first 2 easy reader books! Kate is holding her own and being successful every day with sounding out letters and has made her way through the "at" book! I'm so proud of both my girls! We will continue to plug away at books over the summer and hopefully be reading lots of words before we start school in the fall!
Places we’re going and people we’re seeing…
This week we had swimming lessons, a trip to the zoo because it was beautiful and my kids needed to walk off some grumpies {we're so thankful for a zoo pass that we got for Christmas!}, we had a play day, 2 different church activities on Wednesday, lunch with Daddy at a park on Thursday and today we have art class!
My favorite thing this week was…
A friend gifted us with Song School Latin and I have so enjoyed listening to my kids sing the songs. They think the songs are so fun...I feel like they are so smart ;)
I am so looking forward to my family being here tonight! I know I will be refreshed {and exhausted} when they leave!
Things I’m working on…
Laundry :) I have also finished the Easter skirts and have started piecing together a few play skirts for this summer. I can make these babies in 12 minutes and my girls would wear skirts daily if they had enough of them. All of the material is free to me! I'll pair the skirts with $3 tank tops from Wal-Mart and they will be perfect summer play clothes.
I’m reading…
so many things
I’m cooking…
nothing actually. I cannot remember what we have been eating all week, except for Wednesday, which was National Food on a Stick Day so we ate corn dogs!
I’m grateful for…
family! for healthy children, for the beautiful sunshine, for so many things! A supporting, hard working husband, the opportunity to snuggle my kids and to learn right along with them.
