Our first week

This week Amber and I started baby sitting. So far this week as gone pretty well considering Amber got sick, but I have kept up with things pretty well. Homeschooling will bring about it's own set of challenges but I am ready to fulfill the commitments I have made to home school our kids, our Friends three kids, and care for them. They are like family to us so I am thankful for this opportunity to try something new and to help them out as well. Also, the boys call me Aunt Rebecca. I feel like they are my little nephews.

Madison pulled the toy on her bouncy seat for the for the first time this week. She worked pretty hard. She will soon have her motor skills learning more and more. Michael is having a language explosion lately but I will save those for a special post about him and celebrating his 2nd birthday.


Michael loves to help around the house....although, this isn't quite what I had in mind at the time hahaha.


We started some school work with the boys. Amber decided to do an educational craft with them. She called it the "Alphabet Tree"...I am very proud of her she was creative and did a great job with them. Tom is 5 and holding the red tree and Grant is 3. His favorite color is orange.




Michale loves to play with and help take care of Wilson. Michael is a paci supporter. He is slowly weening himself though.




This is a random pic but Amber saw this at a neighbor's house and told me she found her dream car in her favorite color so she took a picture hahaha! All she kept saying is "That's such a sweet car! I want one!".


Michael trying to feed Wilson. He is very nurturing.






And lastly, the kids had fun destroying the living room making a tent and playing all sorts of games. They did very well cleaning it up when asked too.



It's Thursday and I will most likely make the effort to blog weekly on Sat mornings. I think this will help me stay committed with a routine.
