School was fun today! :) Adisson worked on a few different graphs that I found at Homeschool Share for When I Was Young in the Mountains. He really enjoyed them and had a good time gathering information to use. We still have a few pictures I'd look to put in his notebook, but the printer is a little crazy right now so I couldn't get any printed out. The Big Guy that lives here is going to take it apart and make sure it's clean and get some new cartridges as well. I'm pretty excited about that. Adi's reading is going really well and this week we also worked on some reading comprehension activities to help him understand what he's reading a little better. This weekend, I'd like to work on a few more school projects, but we'll see what I can find. :)



Zander is being quite the little two year old today! He displaced an entire shelf of books and when I said "Zander!! You pulled a lot of books down honey!!" He said, "Yeah, I did!!! I help!!!" It's hard to be annoyed with that. :) Last night, I carried laundry from the dryer to my bedroom and along the way dropped a pair of my pajama shorts in the hallway. Zander picked them up and started carrying them around. I walked down the hall and back to find him walking out of the dark bathroom wiping his hand his shirt. And I knew what happened. Mother's intuition, I guess. :) "Zander, where are Mommy's shorts?" "Ummmm, I ....... I poop!!" (Don't try to sidetrack me, sweet pea....I'm on the hunt!) "Zaaaaaaannnnnder.....where are the s...... (I open the toilet)......ZAAAAAANNNNNDDDDEEEERRRR!!!! YOU CANNOT PUT CLOTHES IN THE POTTY!!!!" :D I tried hard not to laugh as I'm explaining to him that clothes don't go in the toilet. I found it a little more than amusing. I'm a sucker for his sweet little face, and the fact that he's my last little baby makes it hard to get angry about much. I called in his Dad, who was less amused and way more annoyed and told him that clothes certainly don't go in the potty. Then Adam stood there and half squealed while I fished the shorts out. He's very weirded out by potty water. I was just very grateful that the toilet wasn't "in use" and that I had just scrubbed it clean less than 2 hours before. :) But still....yuck!

Tonight's dinner menu was Tuna Noodle Casserole, that my son calls Tuny Runy Casserole. :) I made some bread and cooked some peas to go along with it and we're waiting on the Apple pie to cool down to have some dessert. I wanted to go to Once Upon a Child this evening, I'm on the hunt for a few things, but Adam didn't feel well and he's tired so I didn't want to leave the kids here and go shopping since he needed to rest and not Baby Wrangle.

Tomorrow I have to get to the grocery store and I'll also try to get to OUAC while I'm out. I'd also like to make it to the fabric store downtown because I've come up with a new project. :) Then, in the evening, I'm hoping to catch a movie on post (the theater only shows one movie on Friday night and one on Saturday night....second run movies, too, so it's only a few dollars to get in!) with my friend. We'll see how that goes.

Until then, Love and Vinegar!
